The phrase that many people have heard is‘Beger Cool paint, cooler and more durable’or‘Cool paint, energy-saving, low carbon’It’s not just a matter of wanting to use it; it must pass numerous awards and certifications regarding both performance and environmental friendliness, so that Beger Cool paint can truly be a leader in innovative paint developed for homeowners and our world. Let’s take a look at what awards and standards guarantee Beger Cool paint.
1. Honorary Award, Winner of National Innovation 67 (NIA)
The only one in Thailand, surpassing over 300 brands across all industries, it serves as proof of success for the “leader in cool paint innovation” as Beger Cool paint received the honorary award, winner fromthe National Innovation stage for the year 2567with heat-reflective and UV-resistant paint innovation to save energy within buildings from the National Innovation Agency (Public Organization) or NIA
This award was given on the occasion of the 20th anniversary to organizations that have previously received awards and have further developed innovations leading to new products or services that benefit sustainable economic, social, and environmental development.
Beger itself has received national innovation awards in various fields for over 10 consecutive years. Beger Cool is also outstanding in practical applications today, becoming widely recognized and accepted ascool paintthat is energy-saving and low carbon, which meets the criteria for the honorary award, thus obtaining it in the most recent year.
2. Outstanding Award for Creative Energy (Thailand Energy Award 2021)
Another environmental award that Beger received is theOutstanding Award for Creative Energyin the industrial and service sector from the Ministry of Energy, due to outstanding achievements in energy conservation and the development of renewable energy.
This is because Beger Cool paint goes through an environmentally conscious production process at every step, such as the AVID (Automatic Vacuum Inline Dispersion) system, the first and only one in Southeast Asia, which is produced in an automatic inline vacuum system, reducing electricity consumption by over 85% per year (compared to the old production system) alongside the use of renewable energy from sunlight.
It also reduces carbon dioxide emissions, which are one of the causes ofglobal warmingand the heating of the planet, by 335 tons of carbon dioxide per year, and it uses a water recycling system that reduces wastewater by 100%, while effectively reducing the use of chemicals in wastewater treatment.
3. Carbon Footprint Reduction Label
The Carbon Footprint Reduction Labelor the carbon footprint reduction label of products from the Greenhouse Gas Management Organization (Public Organization) means that the product has gone through a process to help reduce the amount of emissions.Greenhouse GasThroughout the life cycle from upstream where raw materials are received, produced, transported, and used, to downstream which is the disposal of products after use.
Beger Cool Diamond Shield 15 is the first building paint in Thailand to receive the highest carbon reduction label (gold label). The development goal is not only to invent high-quality building paint suitable for Thailand’s climate but also to be environmentally friendly, low carbon, and responsible to the world at the same time.
4. Environmental labels from the Thailand Environment Institute (Green Label and Carbon Reduction Label)
Green Label (Green Label Thailand)from the Thailand Environment Institute is a guarantee of being a house paint product that meets standards, is more environmentally friendly, and has less environmental impact than regular house paints. Beger Cool has received the Green Label continuously until 2024, totaling 15 consecutive years.
ForCarbon Reduction Labelfrom the Thailand Environment Institute, based on the AVID production process, making Beger Cool the first paint to have a label guaranteeing its contribution to reducing global warming and greenhouse gas emissions, as well as being friendly to the climate and surrounding communities.
5. High-Efficiency Energy Saving Label
It can be said that Beger Cool is the first energy-saving paint to receive theHigh-Efficiency Energy Saving Labelfrom the Department of Alternative Energy Development and Energy Conservation, Ministry of Energy, which must have solar reflectance values according to the specified efficiency criteria (greater than or equal to 80%).
Beger Cool has a solar reflectance value of over 95%. The development of this cool paint is aimed at making homes cooler and more durable, while also saving energy, reducing household electricity use, and mitigating global warming in the long term.
Another essential quality assurance standard that everyone is familiar with is the Thai Industrial Standard (TIS) issued by the Office of Industrial Product Standards. The standards that Beger Cool has received include TIS 272-2549 General-purpose emulsion paint, TIS 2321-2564 Weather-resistant emulsion paint, and TIS 2514-2564 Emulsion paint that reduces heat from sunlight.
Beger Cool also hasmany environmental standardssuch as LEED standards. The assessment system for the use of construction materials and green building design by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and WELL standards is an international building design that cares for the environment, the well-being, and the health of residents, which instills confidence in homeowners, contractors, designers, and architects that homes or buildings using BEGER COOL paint are cooler, more durable, energy-efficient, and truly low-carbon and environmentally friendly.
