Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets: INTK), a global nanoscience solutions and research leader and member of the U.S. Greenbuilding Council and the American Solar Energy Society, announced today that the Company has launched a "Green Projects Photo Gallery" on its website to educate consumers on the wide range of projects worldwide that have utilized the Company's patented Nansulate line of energy saving and asset protection coatings to reduce energy consumption and show how nanotechnology provides the opportunity for widespread and affordable energy saving solutions. The project gallery can be found at: http://www.nansulate.com/green_projects.htm.
"Nansulate coatings have been in use worldwide for over 5 years in an incredibly wide variety of applications ranging from protecting offshore oil platforms to making a family's home more energy efficient," states Francesca Crolley, VP of Business Development for Industrial Nanotech, Inc. "We believe that by compiling many of the application photographs into one gallery, we provide a visual overview showing clearly the full scope of the projects and customers who have saved money by embracing this new technology and in turn highlight the wide potential for energy savings by homeowners, factory owners, commercial building owners and governments. This technology truly represents the next generation of thermal insulation and is a nanotechnology-based product that is reducing energy costs for consumers and industries."
The projects in the Photo Gallery represent a wide range of sustainable applications which include: luxury apartments, textile heat equipment, oil & gas vessels, residential homes, vehicles, retrofit restoration, chemical tanks, and many others. The energy savings achieved by these projects, which can be found in case studies on the Company's website, range from 10% to over 40% in reduction of energy use.
Nansulate coatings received three awards in 2008, including BUILDERnews magazine's "2008 Best Products" award in the "Energy Efficiency" category, "Remodelers' Choice 100 products of 2008" by Qualified Remodeler Magazine, and the "Top 100 Award" for 2008 by Building Products magazine. A sustainable building project utilizing Nansulate coatings at the new Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Bangkok, Thailand, was recently chosen by the Journal of Architectural Coatings as a "Top Green Project Pick".
