April 9, 2008 --Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets:INTK) says that its patented Nansulate energy-saving protective coatings are now approved under the stringent EU building codes. Nansulate is the company's patented product line of specialty coatings containing a nanotechnology based material that promises thermal insulation, corrosion prevention, resistance to mold growth, and lead encapsulation in an environmentally safe, water-based, formulation.
"This is a significant milestone for Industrial Nanotech in the European building insulation market," stated Francesca Crolley, V.P. of Operations and Marketing. "Nansulate has proven its effectiveness and gained market share in the EU in the industrial and 'do-it-yourself' homeowner markets for the last four years. This certification will open many doors for its use throughout Europe in the burgeoning market of commercial and residential building insulation. Energy conservation through the efficient use of resources has become a priority for governments across Europe. Energy prices continue to soar and governments are putting in place standards and guidelines to compel limitation of energy consumption. Hence, the government, builders, and consumers are demanding more efficient thermal insulation materials for buildings and our Nansulate products offer them that solution."
Nansulate was tested by Istituto De Ricerche E Collaudi M. Massini, of Milan, Italy, a highly regarded institute which has been operating in the field of quality control and certification of products for over 35 years.
Nansulate was tested according to building insulation specifications and was approved according to results from the UNI EN ISO 8990:1999 test method.
The approval certification for building construction standards in the European Union was obtained by the company's distributor for Italy and Spain, Aktarus Group, based in Milan, Italy.
