Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets:INTK), an emerging global leader in nanotechnology based energy saving and sustainable solutions is proud to announce that BUILDINGS magazine has selected their patented thermal insulation and mold resistant coating, Nansulate® Energy Protect, as a top 2012 Money-Saving Product. Nansulate® Energy Protect for energy savings and protection of building walls, windows, skylights, and ceilings is part of an elite group of 77 products that will be showcased in the magazine's June 2012 issue.

Finalists were chosen based on the money-saving qualities offered to building owners and facility managers in areas such as energy consumption, water savings, lighting, envelope improvement, and maintenance.

"We are very honored to have our building energy efficiency product included in the Top Picks by BUILDINGS Magazine," states Francesca Crolley, VP of Business Development for Industrial Nanotech, Inc. "The award and upcoming June issue feature will help make tens of thousands of building owners and facility managers aware of an effective tool they can utilize for energy savings. The technology in Nansulate® Energy Protect allows building and factory owners to easily coat windows, skylights, interior or exterior walls, ceilings, and ductwork with a translucent paint-on insulation and significantly reduce energy consumption. Customers typically report saving 20% to 40% in heating and cooling costs, plus the product offers other protective benefits including mold and fungi growth resistance, UV resistance, and moisture resistance. The coating can also be used over one of the most significant heat loss culprits... windows. While giving them a slightly frosted look, it allows transmission of approximately 92% of visible light, as tested on pane glass, which offers the ability to daylight a building without giving in to huge energy losses. We believe this product is creating a significant change in the way that existing buildings are insulated and offers an attractive solution for affordable building energy savings."

According to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) buildings account for 40% of U.S. primary energy consumption and 39% of U.S. carbon emissions.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, 41% percent of U.S. primary energy is consumed by buildings, compared to 30% by the industrial sector and 29% by the transportation sector. The top three commercial energy uses in buildings are for heating, lighting, and cooling, which represent close to half of commercial site energy consumption.

This data means that companies wanting to reduce energy costs, should not overlook the savings from insulating their building envelope.

Read on for ways you can affordably increase the energy efficiency of any type of building with Nansulate® coatings.


iem_april2012-2.jpgWall Insulation
Spray liquid insulation over brick, concrete, metal, wood, and other wall surfaces.


Nansulate® Energy Protect clear insulation and mold resistance coating can be easily sprayed or rolled over the perimeter walls of your building envelope to reduce heating and cooling costs. Per independent testing over 8cm cement walls, the coating can reduce thermal transmission by 34.8% at a standard 3-coat coverage.

Download Product Data Sheet and Review Case Studies for further information.


iem_april2012-3.jpgWindow Insulation
Increase window energy efficiency without the high cost of replacement.


Windows are one of the largest 'holes' in a building's thermal envelope, and replacing single pane glass with more efficient windows can be cost prohibitive. Easily insulate existing windows and frames with Nansulate® Energy Protect coating. The coating will give a slightly frosted look to windows, while allowing through about 92% of visible light (as tested on pane glass) and also provide resistance to UV rays.

iem_april2012-4.jpgRoof Insulation
Insulate with a CLEAR Cool Roof Coating that also prevents mold growth.


Our new and improved Nansulate® Crystal clear insulating roof coating has just been upgraded for more performance with less coats needed. Apply 2 coats at 5 mils each to increase roof energy efficiency. The coating is also UV & moisture resistant and keeps your roof cleaner because it's resistant to mold and fungi growth. Use over sloped roofs of all types and flat roofs that have good drainage. As tested over concrete roof tiles, the coating can reduce thermal conduction by 30%.

Building maintenance & energy efficiency are year-round issues. Did you know that Nansulate® Coatings can cut your building maintenance costs while also reducing energy bills? From easy paint-on wall and ceiling insulation to mold and fungi resistance exterior surface coatings, to encapsulation of lead contaminated surfaces, solve issues that have been costing you for years with a few quick strokes of a paint brush, roller, or paint sprayer.

jan-2012-2.jpgStop Powerwashing
Imagine being able to keep your building and roof clean for years.

Nansulate® Energy Protect for walls and Nansulate® Crystal for roofs are both clear insulation coatings that also are resistant to mold & fungi growth, as well as being UV and moisture resistant.

Use 2-coats if you want mold/fungi resistance only, or 3-coats for additional thermal insulation benefit.

Stop Corrosion
Stop rust, reduce condensation, and stop the mess of corrosion under insulation.

Nansulate® Translucent PT is a direct-to-metal coating that insulates and prevents rust. Use on metal buildings to insulate effectively without the mess of traditional materials that degrade quickly in moist environments. Great for metal duct work and railings too.

Use 2-coats for rust prevention only, or 3-coats for additional thermal insulation.



jan-2012-4.jpgLower Energy Costs
Easily increase the energy efficiency of any type of building.

Nansulate® Energy Protect is the answer to reducing heating and cooling costs no matter how old the building.

Use on walls (interior or exterior), ceilings, factory windows or skylights to insulate your building and increase energy efficiency.

For sloped roofs use, Nansulate® Crystal clear insulating roof coating.

3-coats is the standard building insulation coverage. Customers report 15%-30% or more energy savings.
