Neil McClelland has been working as a consultant project manager for over 10 years. Moving from a background in Psychology and Education he has also worked within the field of International Management Training and Product Design. (He has also worked as viticulteur, having managed a vin yard in France for 4 years and he has sailed extensively with his family.) Neil has been the Project Manager for nanopool GmbH since 2005.
Nanopool GmbH is a family owned company which is based near to Saarbrucken in Germany. The core competency of nanopool is the formulation of products based on an adaptation of the Sol Gel process.
The solutions created by nanopool allow the end user to apply an ultra thin layer of SiO2 to almost any surface. When applied to a surface the coating, which is approximately 80-100nm thick, provides many exceptional enhancements. Essentially treated surfaces become super phobic and bio-statically active, these characteristics result in the surfaces becoming easy to clean and most surfaces can be cleaned with water alone. NP coatings which are either water based or alcohol based can be applied with great ease to almost any surface. The coating are also highly durable, flexible (200%), heat tolerant (-40 to 450c) resistant to acids and alkalines (0.5 to 12.5 ph) resistant to solvents and breathable at the molecular level.
It would appear that nanopool is currently the world leader in the field of SiO2 particle free nano layering technology. Their products are already on sale in leading store groups and they are currently working on projects with many of the worlds leading retailers and industrial groups. Nanopool are also the proud winners of several “environmental” awards , most recently they have been presented with A Green Apple award by The Green Organisation .
