What they do

Problem

Surface fouling and contamination on critical surfaces causes performance issues and increases cleaning, repair, and replacement costs across industries.

Solution

A PFAS-free repellent coating that reduces adhesion of contaminants (e.g., mud, ice, sludge) on surfaces like glass, metal, ceramic, and plastics.

Who it's for

Industrial manufacturers and product companies (e.g., medical device and automotive component makers) that need fouling-resistant surfaces.
