Howdy. This is a post I recently put on LinkedIn. It has garnered a decent amount of attention. It only takes one individual to recognize the magnitude of this solution. The application is environmentally safe while securing cost savings to municipalities.

Water Tower - Exterior Coating

There is a significantly improved method for coating water towers that can transform the industry. The traditional use of epoxy coatings is not only costly but also has a short lifespan before mold and mildew begin to develop.

Utilizing Cocoon 550, which contains an imbedded biocide, can save municipalities or businesses with tank complexes over $5.1 million over 25 years at a minimum. Here's how it works:

- Cocoon 550 is a PVC Co-polymer, a type of plastic that prevents mold and mildew from germinating.
- In cases of rust, a rust converter is applied to transform the oxide into phosphate.
- Cocoon is a plastisol, and any overspray turns into plastic dust, preventing contamination of surrounding structures.

Application of Cocoon can be done from articulating lifts and sky cranes, eliminating the need for expensive scaffolding and tents. Interestingly, the current vendor responsible for most towers in New Jersey declined to try Cocoon 550 because it didn't align with their business model.

Cocoon 550 has proven effective for notable architects like Frank Lloyd Wright, making it a reliable choice for your needs. Please reach out to discuss further.

Well I have finally convinced one of the most important roofing contractors in the Midwest to adopt my concept of water tower restoration. Please ignore my backyard things have changed. But the fact remains the same Cocoon is a remarkable material that has existed since World War II. Owned and manufactured by the Andek Corporation of Cinnaminson, NJ.

The reality is that Marshall and I think the same way. If we can save a client money and do a better job than that job should be done. Applying Cocoon 550 to a water tower will save municipalities millions of dollars over 20 years. In my local community towers have been sprayed with epoxies and within one month the molding process begins. Cocoon 550 has a biocide it will not mold or mildew for at least two decades. I'm being conservative cuz I know better.

So Midway through the project. This is a good short video. This is Cocoon. There is no other non-flammable coating in the world that will do this. This is Cocoon 550. It won't mold or mildew for God knows how long.

Cocoon USA we're finally off to Nashville for a ground breaking project. Something that has been on my mind for years. We are going to encapsulate a glass atrium on the top of a hotel. It is something that has never been tried before but makes so much sense. Sunlight will pass through the coating just like the famous cocoon bubble lamps

Will we will be applying Cocoon 550. A non-flammable mold resistant coating that will allow light to pass through while waterproofing the structure. The largest hotel management company in the world is coming to see our work. Pretty exciting.
