Nano Insulation is a liquid-consistency, colourable, paint-like thermal insulation material with many other beneficial properties in addition to insulation. It is a material that can be used both indoors and outdoors in industrial, civil and other types of constructions. Compared to conventional insulation materials, this photocatalytic system is beneficial for internal and external air purification and uses nanotechnology with Titanium Dioxide effective for preventing viruses, bacteria, cleaning polluted air from toxins, removing odours, stopping moulds and fungi, purifying water and more benefits. Among the essential features we list: Heat reflection by at least 60-70%, which reduces heat costs by at least 30%; Reduces the noise level by 0.6 mm up to 2 dB; its composition does not contain harmful or poisonous components; protects the coated surface against weather conditions and corrosion; retains its properties in extreme conditions for a long time; it has a lifespan of over 10 years; with implementation guarantee; with a side cover, the quality of incoming cold air is reduced by at least 30%, with both sides covered by at least 55%; 78% water absorption and high vapour permeability are excellent for the interior comfort; is non-combustible: does not fuel the combustion, helps to slow down the speed of the flame; simple and quick use with a sprayer.
