NP® Liquid Glass plastic refinement

Durable surface protection with nanotechnology

Plastics are indispensable in industry, production and retail – yet environmental influences, UV exposure, dirt and mechanical stress often lead to premature wear and degraded appearance.

With NP® Liquid Glass plastic refinement, we offer an advanced nanocoating that protects plastic surfaces long-term, improves ease of maintenance and significantly extends material lifespan.

The nanosealing forms an invisible, highly durable protective layer that preserves material properties while shielding against abrasion, UV radiation and contamination.

Ideal for industrial applications, commercial environments and public infrastructure.

Key properties of the NP® nanocoating for plastics

The NP® Liquid Glass coating is an ultra-thin, transparent layer of modified liquid glass that bonds permanently to the surface, delivering reliable protection.

 Technical and functional characteristics:

Invisible long-term protection for smooth and textured plastic surfaces

High mechanical resistance – protects against abrasion, scratches and micro-cracks

UV- and weather-resistant – prevents fading, embrittlement and degradation

Antistatic and dirt-repellent – reduces dust and dirt adhesion

Chemical resistant – withstands oils, greases, solvents and cleaners

Temperature stable from –40 °C to +250 °C

Hygienic and low-maintenance – reduces cleaning effort by up to 70%

Sustainable – extends service life and lowers maintenance costs

Reference:

McDonald’s – reduced cleaning costs through nanocoating

Initial situation:
The outdoor advertising installations of a McDonald’s franchise were exposed to harsh weather, UV radiation and heavy contamination. Despite regular cleaning, the plastic surfaces quickly lost their shine and frequently needed maintenance or replacement.

Solution:
The application of the NP® Liquid Glass plastic nanocoating created an invisible protective layer that shields the surfaces from dirt, grease, UV damage and weathering.

Results:

  • 60% reduction in cleaning costs
  • Significantly extended lifespan of advertising surfaces
  • Long-lasting clean, colour-stable appearance
  • Lower maintenance effort for the entire site

“Thanks to the NP® plastic refinement, we were able to significantly extend the lifespan of our advertising signs while saving both time and maintenance costs. The results speak for themselves – visually and economically.”
— Franchise Owner, McDonald’s Germany

Retail & signage

In retail environments and visual communication, the liquid glass coating preserves long-lasting brilliance and weather resistance on signs, displays and totems.

Plastic cladding in shops and sales areas remains cleaner, colour-stable and visually appealing – ideal for brands that value a pristine appearance and lower maintenance costs.

Public sector & infrastructure

In transport services, municipalities and utilities, the nanocoating protects plastic surfaces from dirt, graffiti and UV damage.

Information boards, signage, shelters and control cabinets maintain their appearance and functionality for longer – resulting in cleaner, longer-lasting and more cost-efficient public infrastructure.

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