Does the coating still contribute toward energy savings if other containers are stacked on top, and it isn’t exposed to direct sunlight?
Although a container at the bottom of a stack (2-3 containers high) does not receive direct solar energy, the energy is radiated downward to the bottom containers through the higher ones. Overtime, this radiated heat will be transferred into the interior of the container forcing the compressor systems to continually run in order to maintain a constant internal temperature. However, if the containers were coated with Eco-Transport Coating, instead of the radiated heat transferring into the coating, the highly thermal emissive qualities of the coating would dissipate the solar energy away from the container.
