The environmentally friendly coating of surfaces with sol-gel nanotechnology reduces maintenance costs by up to 40 percent.
For the first time, Nanopool GmbH has coated the surfaces of an entire McDonald’s restaurant in Salzburg. Thanks to the sol-gel surface coating process developed by Nanopool GmbH, these surfaces acquire antimicrobial properties and become easier to clean. Dirt no longer sticks, and the coating additionally protects against mould and bacteria. As a result, the use of chemicals and cleaning agents is reduced by up to 40%.
In the Salzburg McDonald’s restaurant, the coated surfaces included the glass of the windows and gallery, plastic flooring, porcelain stoneware tiles, the plastic and ceramic surfaces in the restrooms, the stainless steel kitchen, the kitchen floor and the tables.
NP® nanotechnology in the home, hotel and catering industry does not mean tiny little robots that keep the house tidy like modern electronic helpers. It is first and foremost about extremely thin layers that are applied to a wide variety of surfaces like an invisible protective film. Invisible, because they are a hundred times thinner than a human hair. And you cannot feel the layer either. But you can see what it is capable of.
Kitchen surfaces that come into contact with food can be coated with the NP® layer for easier cleaning and improved hygiene. And for surfaces that require special hygiene, such as toilet seats, the nano layer is also available in an antibacterial version.
Applying the nano layer is also very easy. Simply spray it on, rub it in with a cloth so that the surface is evenly coated, let it dry, and the surface is protected for many months and remains easy to clean in the long term.
The NP® nano layers are not only environmentally neutral – they are essentially derived from sand and, together with the life cycle of the products they are applied to, are returned to the natural cycle.
The products of Nanopool GmbH have been tested thoroughly. Worldwide, there are no other products based on the principle of ultra-thin layers that have been scrutinised as comprehensively by external laboratories and institutes as the products of Nanopool.
