i2Cool Limited

i2Cool invented a passive radiative cooling paint (patented in
Hong Kong) that can achieve an electricity-free and refrigerant-free
self-cooling effect. By applying this paint on the roof or external walls of
buildings, the indoor air temperature can be decreased, saving the energy
usage of air-conditioning systems and reducing carbon emission. Apart from
that, adopting this technology would cut down both running and installation
costs of cooling equipment and reduce the amount of maintenance needed. At
the same time, by reducing the amount of equipment, more space can be freed
up for other amenities. The cooling paint developed by i2Cool will be tested
in the Central Market and make it a place to CHILL.
