Emerging Smart Paint Innovations
Temperature-Regulating Technology: Energy Efficiency
Jewell’s Watertite Damploc showcases the most dramatic smart technology breakthrough: up to 12°C surface temperature reduction through advanced heat-reflective formulation. This ready-to-use viscous liquid engineered with PU hybrid polymers and reinforcing acrylic fibers
delivers dual functionality—comprehensive waterproofing backed by 10-year warranty combined with significant thermal management.
The Science: Specialised pigments and additives reflect infrared radiation (the primary heat transfer mechanism) rather than absorbing it This prevents heat from penetrating building envelope, reducing air conditioning loads and improving occupant comfort.
Heat-reflective cooling paints typically incorporate:
- Reflective pigments (titanium dioxide) bouncing solar radiation
- Infrared reflective additives preventing heat penetration
- Ceramic microspheres enhancing insulation properties
- UV-blocking agents maintaining performance longevity
Energy Efficiency Impact: By reflecting solar heat, cooling technology contributes to enhanced energy efficiency in buildings, decreasing reliance on air conditioning systems and lowering utility costs. For luxury homes in hot climates like Delhi, Mumbai, and Bangalore, this translates to measurable operational savings while supporting sustainability commitments.
Antimicrobial Surfaces: Health-Conscious Living
Activated Carbon Technology in Jewell’s Attitude and Fresh Air ranges delivers continuous antimicrobial protection—addressing post- pandemic health consciousness among luxury homeowners.
The formulation incorporates Active Bamboo Charcoal and Tea Tree Oil (natural plant-based ingredients) that inhibit bacterial and fungal growth on paint film surfaces. Unlike temporary antimicrobial treatments that degrade over time, these are integral to the paint matrix, providing protection throughout the coating’s lifespan.
The Market Context: Antimicrobial paints have gained significant traction in healthcare facilities where infection control justifies 20-50% premium pricing over standard paints. Luxury residential applications benefit from same technology, creating surfaces that resist mold, mildew, and bacterial colonization—particularly critical in high-humidity areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and coastal residences.
Advanced formulations now incorporate silver-based antimicrobial technology that neutralizes harmful microbes on contact, reducing surface viral and bacterial loads by >99%. This transforms walls from passive surfaces into active participants in household health maintenance.
Self-Cleaning Capabilities: Maintenance Reduction
Smart paint technologies increasingly incorporate self-cleaning properties through dirt-resistant formulations. Jewell’s Eco Emulsion Anti-Dust features proprietary Dust Shield Technology that prevents dust accumulation on painted surfaces—dramatically reducing cleaning frequency and maintaining aesthetic freshness.
The technology creates microscopic surface texture that minimize dust adhesion while enabling easy removal during routine cleaning. For luxury homes in Delhi’s high-pollution environment, this innovation delivers tangible lifestyle benefits through reduced maintenance burden.
Smart Paint Benefits for Luxury Living
Energy Efficiency: Operational Savings
Heat-reflective technologies like Watertite Damploc’s 12°C cooling capability directly reduce energy consumption.
