BPS-Building Protection Systems

Bangalore-based BPS Building Protection Systems Pvt Ltd, which participated in the Green Building Congress for the fourth time, is looking forward to expand its clientele in the country. "We are keen that more companies adopt our products which are not only green, but also extremely cost-effective, thereby breaking the myth that going green is expensive. Our alternatives are not only greener but also cheaper," informs Mr. Aditya Kaura, the company’s Director.

He continues, "This year, we would like to showcase some additional products like Hydretain and KristalBond." Notably, Hydretain is a root zone moisture management product which effectively reduces the overall watering requirements of plants, shrubs, trees, turf and agriculture by as much as 50% or more. It is a liquid group of hygroscopic and humectant components that attract moisture that would otherwise be lost to evaporation at the root zone level. On the other hand, Kristalbond is a transparent glass coating for energy savings. "Many buildings today have glass facades which allow a lot of daylight, but result in a lot of energy consumption for air conditioning. Our product is cheaper than a double gazing alternative and also ensures that 75% light pass through with 90% IR block and 99% UV Block."

Meanwhile, the company is highly upbeat on Insuladd, which is a Thermally Insulating Paint Additive, which, when added to paint, results in a cool roof coating with energy savings in the range of 10-20%. "Compliant with IGBC green rating norms, this product has been applied in over 2 million sqaure feet of roof area in India and top corporates in India have used this product," he informs.
