NP® wood enhancement – innovative nanocoating for professional wood protection

 

Sustainable surface protection with NP® Liquid Glass technology

Our NP® wood enhancement combines state-of-the-art nanotechnology with a patented Liquid Glass coating. The result: a highly effective nano sealant that protects wood surfaces long-term, makes them easy to maintain, and preserves their natural appearance.

Whether in industrial production, construction, architecture or furniture manufacturing – NP® delivers maximum efficiency, durability and sustainability.

Key features at a glance:

  • Hydrophobic and dirt-repellent – water and contaminants simply bead off
  • UV- and weather-resistant – prevents greying, cracking and degradation
  • Breathable (vapour-permeable) – the wood remains open to diffusion
  • Free from biocides and solvents – environmentally friendly and safe
  • Food-safe and odourless – suitable for kitchens and production environments
  • Easy application – spray, dip, roll or wipe
  • Suitable for nearly all timber species and engineered wood materials

Your benefits with NP® nanocoating

Reference:

Termite test in India – sustainable protection with NP® nano sealant

In an independent field trial in a termite-active region near Mumbai (India), the effectiveness of NP® Liquid Glass wood coating was demonstrated clearly. Two identical wooden samples – one untreated, one coated with NP® nano sealant – were buried in soil for several weeks.

Results:

  • The untreated wood was completely destroyed by termites.
  • The NP®-protected wood remained intact, structurally stable and undamaged.

The test images highlight the difference and confirm the efficiency and sustainability of our nano sealant – proving that high-performance wood protection does not require biocides.

This case study shows how nanotechnology delivers measurable benefits for manufacturers and construction companies, especially in regions with high pest activity.

Areas of Application

Where nano wood coatings can be used

The possible uses of the nanopool® nano wood coating are highly versatile.
Wherever timber is used in commercial, architectural or domestic settings, the technology provides long-lasting protection, reduced maintenance requirements and improved sustainability.

Construction & architecture

Long-term sealing and protection for interior and exterior wood.

Our Liquid Glass nanocoating provides durable protection for timber structures, façades, window frames and interior finishes. The nano sealant reliably protects against moisture, UV exposure and mould – ideal for construction companies, architects and wood processors who prioritise sustainability and low-maintenance materials.

Furniture manufacturing, design & production

Functional wood coating for long-lasting surfaces

For mass production or bespoke work, NP® Liquid Glass offers an efficient, high-quality surface treatment. It makes wood resistant to wear, stains and moisture – while preserving its natural appearance. Perfect for kitchens, bathrooms, shopfitting and outdoor furniture.

Cultural preservation & outdoor applications

Sustainable conservation and weather protection

Our nano sealant is ideal for heritage preservation, restoration of historic wood objects and for landscaping or outdoor installations. The Liquid Glass technology protects delicate or valuable wooden surfaces without altering their texture or colour – ideal for museums, public institutions, terraces, pergolas and timber façades.

Whether in production or during ongoing operations

NP® Liquid Glass enhances quality, reduces costs, and increases the value of your surfaces.

Safety & Quality – independently verified

The nanopool® technology has been tested by independent institutes and meets international standards for environmental compatibility, product safety and hygiene.
This gives partners in industry, architecture and facility management the assurance that our solutions are consistently safe, stable and compliant with relevant regulations.

  • For manufacturers, this means reliable compliance, proven material compatibility and seamless integration into production processes.
  • For service providers and planners, it ensures that coated structures and surfaces remain functional and durable over the long term.

nanopool® stands for certified quality – Made in Germany.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

The durability of our nano sealant depends on the type of application, the wood structure and the environmental conditions.

In practice, the NP® Liquid Glass coating performs reliably for many years – significantly longer than conventional varnishes or oils.

Thanks to the liquid-glass-based nanotechnology, the protective film remains UV-stable, abrasion-resistant and water-repellent, without sealing or discolouring the wood.

When applied correctly, the lifespan of the treated wood surface can be extended many times over, even under heavy weathering or frequent use.

Yes – the NP® nanocoating is emission-free, food-safe and odourless.

It contains no harmful solvents or biocides and can therefore be used safely in kitchens, production areas or public buildings.

The smooth, hydrophobic surface also prevents the ingress of moisture, dirt or bacteria, ensuring easy cleaning – ideal for hygiene-sensitive environments.

Yes – NP® wood enhancement is suitable for almost all common types of timber and engineered wood. It can be applied to solid wood, veneer, MDF, chipboard and composite materials.

The Liquid Glass technology forms an invisible, breathable protective layer that preserves the natural appearance of the wood.

For very open-pored or highly absorbent timber, we recommend a preliminary treatment to ensure even wetting and optimal adhesion.

We are happy to assist you in selecting the most suitable system for your production or application.

NP® wood enhancement is applied as a liquid nanocoating (Liquid Glass) to the cleaned wood surface. Depending on the application and production process, the nano sealant can be applied by spraying, dipping, rolling or wiping.

For industrial users, spraying and dipping are particularly suitable, as they provide even coverage and high processing efficiency.

After application, an ultrathin, transparent layer of Liquid Glass forms, curing within minutes and bonding firmly with the wood structure.

The process requires no complex post-treatment – a single application is generally sufficient to achieve long-lasting protection against moisture, UV exposure, dirt and biological influences.

For special requirements (e.g. heavily exposed exterior surfaces), a second application can further enhance protection.
