In modern architecture and furniture manufacturing, wood plays a central role. However, despite its many benefits as a renewable resource, wood remains vulnerable to moisture, pests, and fire. This limits its use in safety-critical and durable applications. A promising solution is offered by nanotechnology. Nanopool has developed a groundbreaking surface coating called NP® Liquid Glass, based on a liquid glass formula that comprehensively protects wood.
Invisible protection against environmental influences
NP® Liquid Glass forms a breathable protective layer at the molecular level that prevents the penetration of water and pollutants while simultaneously reducing the flammability of wood. This makes it an ideal solution for robust industrial applications as well as for household use, where health and aesthetics are paramount.
Remarkable results in field experiments
An impressive example of the effectiveness of NP® Liquid Glass is demonstrated in a field experiment in Mumbai, India. Two identical pieces of wood were buried near a termite colony. The wood treated with nanotechnology remained undamaged for nine months under extreme weather conditions, while the untreated piece was significantly damaged by termites.
Versatile industrial applications
The applications of NP® Liquid Glass are diverse. It not only protects wood from moisture and mold but is also odorless, making it particularly attractive for the furniture industry. By transforming the organic wood surface into a non-organic structure, NP® Liquid Glass offers a novel approach to wood protection.
Sustainability and environmental compatibility
The liquid glass technology protects wood without the use of harmful chemical substances. This extends the lifespan and reduces the maintenance costs of wooden structures without harming the environment. Thanks to NP® Liquid Glass, wood can also be used in moist and biologically vulnerable environments that were previously unsuitable.
Recognition for environmental friendliness
Nanopool has received multiple awards for its environmentally friendly solution. NP® Liquid Glass strikes a balance between technical efficacy and environmental compatibility, opening up new possibilities for future-oriented applications in wood protection.
Conclusion
NP® Liquid Glass by Nanopool offers innovative and sustainable protection for wood in various application areas. The unique nanotechnology transforms wood into a durable, environmentally friendly, and resilient surface, meeting the challenges of modern architecture and furniture manufacturing.
