How we work
Innovative coatings and systems for their application
Materials creation
We create materials that change surface properties, adapting them to market needs — functional layers, multilayer coatings, nanometric particles and aerogels — based on proprietary submicron sol-gel materials.
Application system
We've built an advanced system for applying thin layers by atomization. Our proprietary device produces functional coatings on large-format and geometrically complex surfaces, translating laboratory solutions into industrial applications.
Hydrogen
Hydrogen barrier coating
Based on currently applicable standards for permissible hydrogen loss in storage tanks, the value of lost hydrogen is measured in tens of billions of dollars per year. Our barrier technology not only retains hydrogen but enables hydrogen technologies to be introduced into previously unavailable applications. Groundbreaking research confirms that hydrogen loss in a tank covered with our innovative sol-gel coating oscillates at the lower sensitivity limit of measurement tools — independently validated and calibrated in a commercial laboratory.
Cost efficiency
Find out the scale of savings
The use of innovative solutions tailored to a company's needs allows you to build a strong competitive advantage and significantly reduce production costs. Example: replacing an expensive material with a cheaper equivalent that, after applying our specialized functional coating, achieves identical properties to the expensive starting material — such as replacing high-quality austenitic steel with several-times-cheaper structural steel for cryogenic device manufacturing.
