# Q Gen-Next Sustainable Technology

##### ACCELERATING THE RATE OF CLIMATE INNOVATION BY:

Transforming climate control with insulation coatings to deliver year-round comfort while cutting energy use and carbon emissions to power a greener future.

[Buildings](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/buildings) [Building Heat](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/building-heat) [Buildings (cooling / heating / envelopes)](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/buildings-cooling-heating-envelopes) [Cohort 25-1](https://www.third-derivative.org/portfolio/tag/cohort-25-1)

##### PROBLEM FOCUS

Hot roofs absorb Solar Infrared Radiation. This leads to hotter buildings, forces HVACs to work harder, increases energy use and emissions, and causes urban heat islands. Cooler roofs can cut energy demand and carbon footprints.

##### TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION

Ganzkuhl® Passive Daytime Radiative Cooling Coating revolutionizes sustainable cooling by reflecting and radiating 98.6% of solar heat; cutting HVAC energy use and reducing carbon emissions while lowering indoor heat stress and enhancing occupant health. It also acts as a waterproofing layer, is non-toxic, highly durable, and resistant to dirt and microbes. The product is ideal for any building, industrial metal sheds, container offices, or housing structures.
