Frequently Asked Questions
What do we mean by breathable?
Breathability is a term used within the building industry to describe how a substrate allows water molecules and air molecules to pass through it. Our independent scientific testing confirmed that Emperor products had little effect on breathability and did not restrict the movement of air.
How have Emperor Paint products been tested?
The Emperor range of products have been independently tested by a United Kingdom Accredited Testing Laboratory (UKAS) to confirm their performance. The products were awarded four certifications; EAD 040083-00-0404 (external thermal insulation composite), EAD 090062-00-0404 (25 year hygrothermal performance), BS EN ISO 12572 (water vapour resistance) and BS EN ISO 7783:2011 (water vapour diffusion).
What is the coverage of Emperor Masonry Paint?
It varies on different substrates, but generallyย Emperor Masonry Paint rate of approximately 5-6mยฒ per litre. Specific details about the coverage of each of the products can be found on the datasheet, which can be downloaded on theย help & advice page.
Can you apply Emperor Masonry Paint over pre-painted bricks and substrates?
