[May 24, 2012] Industrial Nanotech Completes Installation of Initial Projects with U.S. Manufacturers Tweet May 24, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Industrial Nanotech, Inc., a global company focused on nanotechnology-based energy saving and sustainable solutions, announced in a May 21 release that it has recently completed initial installations of the Company's Nansulate thermal insulation and protective coatings with several major U.S. manufacturers in the paper and textile industries for insulation, surface protection and personnel protection. "Saving energy is now becoming a more immediate priority for U.S. manufacturers," said Francesca Crolley, V.P. Business Development for Industrial Nanotech, Inc. "While many of our previous larger projects have been overseas due to the culture of sustainability and regulatory mandates for energy savings, we are now seeing a significant increase in the focus on sustainability by U.S. companies and these initial projects are expected to expand into company wide initiatives in the very near future. Companies we have been working with in the U.S., including the most recent installations in textile facilities and a paper mill are now at a point where these types of energy saving projects are moving forward." Crolley continues, "For over eight years, Nansulate has provided significant energy savings and protective benefits for a number of industries, including global textile manufacturer Coats plc, who projected saving more than 10 percent in energy costs and 2 percent in carbon emissions throughout their plants in addition to lowering the dye house internal temperatures for improved worker safety. Henateks, a textile manufacturer for major sports apparel companies, charted an average of 20 percent reduction of energy consumption and reduced their liquid natural gas consumption in the first two years by over 1 million cubic meters per year. Nansulate coatings have also provided solutions at paper mills in countries such as India, and were a topic of a presentation at last year's PaperTech Expo. Our coatings for building insulation are also just as popular for energy savings, reducing the internal temperature of a critical data center for Mexico's Social Security and Health Administration (IMSS) by 27 percent to reduce heat related server shut down, and being implemented as a sustainable building solution in the Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Bangkok, Thailand." Nansulate is the Company's patented product line of specialty coatings containing a nanotechnology based material and which provide the combined performance qualities of thermal insulation, corrosion prevention, resistance to mold growth, fire resistance, chemical resistance and lead encapsulation in an environmentally safe, water-based, coating formulation. The Nansulate Product Line includes industrial, residential, agricultural and solar thermal insulation coatings. "Our experience is that energy saving projects are now more important than ever for US companies," concluded Crolley, "and our patented coatings offer them the ability to implement a project at an affordable cost with short payback period, typically 6-18 months. We expect to see many more projects in the future with U.S. based manufacturers, in addition to being busier than ever with overseas projects as the world continues to seek innovative paths to sustainability."
