Nanotechnology has created the next big step forward in protective coatings for a wide range of surfaces. Now you can make products from wood or concrete for example and retain their natural colour and appearance whilst providing protection from damp at a molecular level. Nanotechnology can be defined as Engineering on a very small scale.
To understand this in simple terms, if 1 metre were the size of the earth, a nanometre would be the size of an apple, or in numbers one billionth of a metre. These products have only just been launched in the UK and come in 1 litre or 4 litre sizes. What a great idea for your teak garden furniture!!
