Container Home Cooling: CryoPaint vs. Conventional Roof Solutions

Container homes are stylish and eco-friendly but can turn into furnaces under the sun, especially in desert climates. Metal shipping containers absorb heat quickly, prompting many owners to coat them with Rust-Oleum® or other elastomeric coatings. While these can reflect a portion of sunlight, CryoPaint truly stands apart by actively radiating away heat—keeping interior temps remarkably manageable.

Advantages of CryoPaint on Container Homes

  • Proven PDRC Technology: Metal surfaces often get 50–70°F above ambient. CryoPaint can lower it below ambient, outperforming typical reflective paints.
  • Budget-Friendly Comfort: At roughly \$6.25/sq ft including labor, CryoPaint can be a more economical solution than installing additional insulation or pricey foam.
  • Minimal Maintenance: Built-in UV blockers and self-cleaning properties let CryoPaint resist dust and degradation, sparing you frequent re-coats.
