Textured Coating

What is Textured Coating?

Textured Coating is a thick-slurry architectural coating developed with a specialized formula, characterized by its non-flat, uneven surface. Unlike traditional latex paints, it incorporates specific particle sizes of natural quartz sand, mica flakes, synthetic fibers, or polymer granules within an emulsion matrix. This composition creates a finish with significant three-dimensional depth and tactile texture upon drying.

As a flagship product of Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd., our Textured Coating utilizes high-performance acrylic or silicone-acrylic emulsions as film-forming substances to ensure coating stability under extreme weather conditions. This coating serves not only as a protective layer for walls but also as an artistic medium for architects to achieve personalized visual expressions.

Core Physical Parameter Comparison

Visual Effects and Texture Classification

In the production standards of Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd., we categorize Textured Coating into three main types based on particle size and application techniques:

Fine Texture: Typically uses 0.1mm - 0.3mm fine sand. The finished surface resembles fine sandpaper with a gentle touch, often used for interior feature walls or ceilings in high-end hotels.

Medium Texture: Utilizes 0.5mm - 1.2mm mixed particles. This is currently the most widely used category for exterior building walls, effectively balancing decorative aesthetics with construction costs.

Coarse/Rugged Texture: Contains particles or fibers over 2.0mm. It is commonly used to create Mediterranean styles, knockdown effects, or bold industrial decor.

Main Functions and Advantages of Textured Coating

Compared to ordinary coatings, the most significant feature of Textured Coating is the multiple protective effects brought by its "heavy-duty" thickness. Below are the core competitive advantages of this product in practical applications:

Superior Weather Resistance and Long Lifespan

Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd. produces textured coatings using UV-resistant polymers that effectively resist chalking and fading caused by intense sunlight. The lifespan of this coating is typically 15 to 20 years, which is significantly higher than ordinary smooth latex paints, reducing the life-cycle maintenance costs of the building.

Strong Concealment and Crack Bridging

Due to the high solid content and film thickness of Textured Coating, it acts like an elastic coat over the building surface. It perfectly covers fine cracks and irregularities in the substrate, eliminating the need for expensive fine leveling processes.

Physical Parameter Comparison: Durability and Protection

Energy Saving and Noise Reduction

Thermal Insulation: Our Textured Coating is thicker than standard paint, providing a certain thermal resistance effect. Experimental data shows that in high-temperature summer environments, the surface temperature of buildings using this coating can be 5 to 8 degrees Celsius lower than those with ordinary dark coatings.

Acoustic Effect: The uneven textured surface causes sound wave scattering, effectively absorbing and reducing environmental noise. This makes it ideal for tunnels, schools, and roadside buildings.

Industrial-Grade Corrosion Protection

As an extension of the industrial coating line of Zhejiang Bolei Coatings Co., Ltd., our textured coatings also perform excellently in chemical stability. The high-density film layer isolates buildings from acid rain and salt spray erosion, making it particularly suitable for coastal and heavy industrial pollution areas.
