GENERAL

 

Nano-Tex Asia Ltd. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nano-Tex Inc. [Nano‑Tex] which is a US-based firm.  The subject is a textile chemical trader.

Nano-Tex, a textile technology company, provides nanotechnology-based textile enhancements to the apparel, commercial, and residential interiors markets.  It offers Resists Spills, a spill resistant fabric enhancement for various fibres, including cotton, synthetics, wool, silk, rayon, and polypropylene that repels a range of liquids; and Coolest Comfort, a quick‑absorbing fabric enhancement that provides superior wicking properties, which pulls perspiration away from the body and dries it quickly to keep the body cool and comfortable.  It also offers Resists Static, which lets fabric repel lint, dust, and pet hair that normally clings due to static attraction; Dry Inside, a performance cotton that moves moisture away from the skin and isolates it on the outer surface; and All Conditions Fleece that repels water and resists static for the life of the garment.  The treated garments offer “cool comfort”.

In addition, Nano-Tex offers Resists Spills and Releases Stains, a stain release combined with stain repellency.  Its fabrics are used in various products, including trousers, active wear, uniform, shirting, and business attire for men, women, and children.

Nano-Tex was founded in 1998 and is headquartered in Oakland, California.  It has operations in the United States, Asia, and Europe.  Nano-Tex is a former subsidiary of Burlington Industries Inc.  It is a member of the American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists.
