		<description><![CDATA[In the light of growing climate change concerns and youth eco-activists like Greta Thunberg calling us all to task, we’re increasingly taking more and more meaningful steps to reduce our impact on the environment. This is happening across all sectors of industry. The marked shift by no means excludes the very coatings we apply to the walls, roofs and surfaces of our homes, businesses, factories, machinery and modes of transport, and covers anything from the way these paints are manufactured to the substances they contain. With its leaps and bounds in green technology, Plascon is leading the charge with a phalanx of eco-wise coatings. The first of these innovations is the brand’s introduction of APEO free formulations. APEO compounds are bio-accumulative compounds which, when released into the environment, can be toxic to human and wildlife, especially marine life. Conventional roof paints contain APEOs that, over time, leach into waterways through rain and drainage, and eventually contaminate the soil, water tables, rivers and ultimately, our oceans. APEOs that accumulate in water systems become toxic to aquatic organisms. In large doses, APEOs can even disrupt hormonal systems in humans.

		<description><![CDATA[It’s good for roofs, it’s good for consumers and it’s good for the environment – what more could you ask for from a roof coating? Plascon’s latest addition to its durable exterior coatings range, Plascon TradePro Roof &#38; More, offers more benefits than ever &#8211; all in one product. What makes Plascon TradePro Roof &#38; More even more remarkable is that it is Africa’s first roof paint to be entirely free of the harmful APEO chemical compounds. APEO compounds are persistent and bio-accumulative when released into the environment and toxic to human and wildlife, especially marine life. All other conventional roof paints contain APEO compounds that, over time, are washed into the environment and eventually contaminate the soil, water tables, rivers and ultimately, our oceans. For this reason, many European Union and other countries have banned the use of APEOs. Frequently Asked Questions 1. What can I use Plascon TradePro Roof &#38; More for? To paint and waterproof various roof types (cementitious, fibre cement and galvanized roofs), and coat multiple exterior surfaces such as paving, facias, gutters, down pipes, window sills, garage doors, garden pots and cladding. 2. How is Plascon TradePro Roof &#38; More ‘multi-functional’? Plascon TradePro Roof &#38; [...]]]></description>

Plascon’s latest addition to its durable exterior coatings range, Plascon TradePro Roof &#38; More, offers more benefits than ever &#8211; all in one product. It is the world’s first all-in-one roof paint and acrylic waterproofer to offer a 10-year guarantee for both benefits, delivering the ultimate sun and rain protection solution to renewing, maintaining and protecting roofs.  It is also available in eight modern, long-lasting colours.
