TECNOLOGIA NAVARRA DE NANOPRODUCTOS S.L. (TECNAN), created in December 2007, is focused on the production and commercialization at industrial scale simple and complex high performance nano-oxides for multi-sectoral applications and ready-to-use nanoproducts (hydrophobic, oleophobic, easy to clean). This business oriented concept has resulted in the emergence of TECNAN as one of the most competitive providers of these new materials nationwide and throughout Europe.
TECNAN has a clear international vision and projection, but also considers an essential priority to contribute to the development of the Spanish nanotechnological industry. TECNAN counts with highly qualified staff as with advanced equipment for the production of complex small-size high quality nanoparticles, including large-scale production rates.
Besides its service commitment to the industrial sector, to quality in its products and to continuous improvement of products and productive processes, the competitive advantage of TECNAN is its outstanding production capacity (from tens to hundreds of kilograms) maintaining excellent quality and purity; and thus, being able to satisfy a wide variety of client requests. TECNAN uses advanced nanosynthesis techniques, which enable the commercialisation of nano-oxides and other nano-compounds (carbonates, phosphates...) of more than 60 elements from the periodic system. Moreover, these techniques result in the production of nanomaterials at a very competitive cost and in a flexible and environmentally friendly way, since no waste or by-products are generated.
TECNAN is a company committed to the continuous improvement of its products and is constantly expanding its catalogue, marketing nanoparticles with increasingly lower sizes and diversifying the structural possibilities of the nanoparticles offered to its clients.
TECNAN is currently supplying nanoproducts to large European and Asian corporations, as well as different commercial samples to technologically leading national and international SMEs and to well known research organisations. |
