About Nanolia

The name Nanolia is derived from Greek and reflects the company's interest in nano coatings, the application of nano technology to bring new properties to surfaces. 

These qualities include making surfaces resistant to abrasion, stain, corrosion or moisture, protected from spills of acids, fats and oils, anti-bacterial, heat tolerant, colour-fast and U/V protected - and easier to clean using only water.

For more information about the Nanolia range of products, visit our on-line shop at www.nanolia.com
Greetings!

Welcome to the second issue of the Nanolia newsletter, designed to bring you news of innovative products from around the world. This issue focuses on an important use of nano-coatings, that of winning the fight against graffiti.

The fact that these ultra-thin coatings can protect both porous and non-porous surfaces from adherence of such a wide variety of paints and markers is indeed indicative of their utility in many other other areas, such as protecting vehicles, boats and buildings against the effects of water, salt-spray, atmospheric contaminants, mould, fungus and UV light.

The possibilities are truly endless!

Sincerely

The Nanolia Team

INTRODUCING OUR ANTI-GRAFFITI RANGE
The Nanolia Anti-Graffiti product range comprises a number of products to suit specific aspects of the graffiti problem. These products double as highly effective protective coatings, while the graffiti removers are great for removing paint and cleaning off marks made by oil-based substances - including tar.

Nano-coatings to protect against graffiti attacks
  • Nanolia PROTECT - A 2-part "easy-to clean" seal for almost any surface. Corrosion protection for metals. Enhances the colour of faded surfaces.  Solvent-based.
  • Nanolia AG PROTECT MATT - A semi-matt version of PROTECT with Anti Graffiti properties
  • Nanolia AG NANOCRETE - Permanent protection for absorbent mineral substrates. Optically neutral. Will survive up to 6-8 aggressive cleaning operations without the need to re-apply the  protective layer. Water based.

How long does it take to get tar out of a carpet?

A customer, Ben, came to us with a problem. Someone had just walked tar over a newly laid carpet. Did we have anything that might remove the tar without damaging the carpet? We suggested he tried - on a small sample - Nanolia Anti-Graffiti Remover Pro, which is the product usually recommended for removing graffiti from surfaces that had not previously been treated with our anti-graffiti protection.

It took Ben just 2 and a half minutes to remove the stain that had covered an area of approx 75mm˛ - without affecting the colour of the carpet!  

So thanks to Ben, we now know that our AG Remover Pro removes tar from carpets, one of the toughest cleaning tasks imaginable. Wow, and thanks Ben!
