Glass and transparent materials are defining elements of modern architecture, industry and infrastructure. They combine design, light transmission and functionality while placing the highest demands on long-term performance, maintenance and value retention.
Façade glazing, windows, transparent components and technical glass surfaces are exposed to a wide range of stresses every day. Contamination, moisture, limescale deposits, environmental influences and intensive use can affect the long-term visual quality and performance of high-quality glass surfaces.
Nanopool’s surface technologies are based on innovative nanotechnology and have been developed to protect transparent materials, reduce cleaning and maintenance requirements, and preserve their original material properties over the long term.
Architects, façade planners, building owners and operators face the challenge of keeping high-quality glass surfaces clean, functional and visually appealing over the long term.
Intelligent surface protection plays a particularly important role in large glass façades, public buildings and high-traffic areas.
Nanopool’s NP® Liquid Glass technology forms an ultra-thin, transparent protective layer on glass and transparent materials.
By specifically functionalising the surface, water- and dirt-repellent properties are created without significantly altering the material’s transparency, light transmission or natural appearance.
The nanocoating for glass supports the long-term protection of transparent surfaces, reduces the adhesion of contaminants and can help to make cleaning processes more efficient.
The technology is suitable for architectural, industrial and technical applications with demanding requirements for transparent materials.
Specialised nanopool technologies are available depending on the material and application.
glass façades, windows, entrance areas, large-scale architectural glazing — reduced dirt adhesion, easier cleaning, preservation of optical properties, long-term preservation of the value of glass surfaces.
industrial glass surfaces, technical components, transparent functional surfaces — protection against environmental exposure, preservation of functional properties, improved care and maintenance properties, long-term material performance.
railway stations, airports, public buildings, high-traffic areas — reduced maintenance requirements, efficient cleaning concepts, a consistently high-quality appearance.
Nanopool technologies are used in applications including:

Nanopool solutions help organisations maintain the long-term performance and cost-effectiveness of transparent surfaces.
Who are nanopool solutions designed for?
Nanopool technologies are suitable for a range of transparent materials, including architectural glass, windows, glass façades and technical glass surfaces.
A nanocoating functionalises the glass surface and can support water- and dirt-repellent properties. This can reduce contamination and make cleaning processes more efficient.
No. The transparent protective layer has been developed to preserve the glass’s light transmission, appearance and material character.
Yes. The solutions are suitable for both new-build projects and existing buildings and glass surfaces.
Professional surface protection can help to optimise cleaning intervals, reduce maintenance requirements and support the long-term preservation of high-quality glass surfaces.
Yes. By optimising cleaning processes, reducing resource consumption and extending service life, the technology can support building and operating concepts.
