GoNano vs Traditional Sealants

Molecule.

GoNano is the first and only North American company to bring to market a sealant that replaces all sealants. The technology behind GoNano spans decades and has gone through critical scientific and peer review.

Nanosilica replaces all other traditional asphalt shingle roofs for its durability and life-cycle cost savings.

Traditional Sealants

  • Acts as an isolated, protective layer
  • Typical repair on microscale, adds layer of oil
  • Less durable, flexible and resilient to aging due to environmental conditions

GoNano Sealant

  • Modifies the mechanical properties of the surface
  • Nanoscale (1000X smaller than a micro meter) forms precise shapes into asphalt pores
  • Bonds to each asphalt shingle, and each shingle to the other

The GoNano Effect

First, the GoNano sealant modifies the molecular structure of asphalt shingles and other surfaces. Then, after application, a reaction occurs with the surface where both organic and inorganic material create new chemical links, called S1 particles. Finally, these S1 particles enter into the surface pores and move outward, connecting with other particles.

The result is a unified barrier against strains caused by environmental factors.

The advantages of molecular structure modification are:

  • Increased resistance to hail storms and high winds
  • Cleans and prevents the growth of algae
  • Prevention and reduction of walter infiltration
  • Preserving and regenerating shingle color
  • Maintaining granule composition
  • Effective evacuation of ice and snow

Environment

In the coming years, the effects of climate change will mean an increase in severity of hail storms. Impact-resistant shingles will be a necessity for protection against increased frequency and strength of future storms.

GoNano’s technology provides a major innovation that transforms traditional roofs into hailstorm resistant roofs at a fraction of the cost of hailstorm resistant shingles.

We are the first and only company to offer this technology to the residential and commercial market. GoNano has been tested to comply with the highest North American standards.

In addition, GoNano’s technology is completely safe for the environment and poses no threat to human health. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration categorized GoNano’s technology as “quickly biodegradable”, “no bioaccumulation potential”, and “no harm to aquatic organisms”.
