The resulting product is a cost effective game changing innovation ready for the broader market for upgradation in building materials in interior and exterior building design, new construction and home remodeling projects.

Nano Stone’s premium quality stone is easier to maintain, eco-friendly and optimizes the use of scarce natural resources by allowing for thinner tiles with reduced breakage during transport, installation, and general use. Our Nano technology processed granite and marble products infused with fragrance are what hospitality, commercial and residential stone tile markets have been waiting for. Premium hotels worldwide can utilize this unique product for their lobby areas, bathrooms, and other common areas that can enhance the ambiance and reduce maintenance costs post installation. Commercial buildings have high foot traffic and high quality granite with impeccable finishes and infused fragrance would be a welcome addition and a premium differentiator. The Company will also be introducing miniature marble and granite chip products with a variety of fragrances that can replace traditional air fresheners in bathrooms, kitchens, and lobbies with attractive stone and stone chip replacements.

The Company currently has operations in the US, Korea, China, Japan and Hong Kong and is expanding its relationships with distributors, suppliers of natural stone, and end user developer groups across the globe.
