Nanotechnology is one of the brightest new frontiers of science and industry. We applaud our customers, distributors and investors, who are in a unique position as our very first 'Nano Pioneers.' They believe in the future of nanotechnology and are incorporating it into the efficiency of their businesses and homes. You are the reason we continue to seek out new technologies and explore the opportunities that nanotechnology has to offer us for improving our daily lives.

Industrial Nanotech Inc started with a mission to utilize nanotechnology to solve insulation and corrosion protection problems for heavy industry. The concept went from conception to the lab with world class scientists and was protected by IP. After months in the lab, the first generation of products were successfully designed.

The products were launched in April of 2004, they were white colored insulation and corrosion protection coatings, in a product line consisting of Nansulate® PT, for pipes and tanks & Nansulate® GP, for other substrates and NanoPrime. The products are a breakthrough in nanotechnology that provide insulation and corrosion protection in a thin film coating that is easy to apply. The prospect for elimination of corrosion under insulation (CUI) for the petrochemical and other industries, gave Nansulate® a unique advantage over tradition types of industrial insulation. Its ability to drastically reduce surface temperatures of hot tanks, pipes and equipment made it an attractive safety coating for protecting workers from burns and helping companies comply with OSHA regulations.

We came to our second generation translucent formula doing what Industrial Nanotech does best: “Bringing the Worlds Greatest Products to the Worlds Greatest Companies” by identifying needs in the market and working hard to create cost competitive custom solutions to solve problems. The breakthrough Translucent formula was born through a very interesting conversation our CEO, Stuart Burchill, had with an engineer at an oil refinery in England.

The engineer mentioned how big a problem CUI (corrosion under insulation) was for their industry, and was interested to hear about our Nansulate® coating, which provided insulation and corrosion protection in one. Additionally, mandatory inspections for CUI were done on a regular basis, and these inspections were visual as well as ultra-sound. Insulation had to be removed and replaced in order to perform these inspections, which was very costly. Stuart listened, and began to think of a way our coating would not need to be removed for visual inspection. The engineer asked if we could make the coating clear, which would be the perfect solution to a significant industry problem costing billions. The annual cost of corrosion is 267 billion in the U.S. alone. (source: Study by CC Technologies & NACE International, funded by FHWA)

So, several months in the laboratory later, our Nansulate® Translucent formula was unveiled. As an added bonus, we found that this formula had ½ the thermal conductivity of our earlier white version, giving it twice the insulating value. So the second generation product line was born by responding to the needs of the marketplace and creating custom solutions for an industry, which proved to be beneficial to all industries, and replaced the earlier version of Nansulate® as our main products.
