Repellent coatings without PFAS
Surface fouling is a costly challenge across industries, impacting medical consumables, diagnostic devices, and automotive components. Contamination from substances like mud, ice, and sludge can compromise performance and lead to frequent cleaning, repairs, and replacements. Our PFAS-free coating, which we first launched as a consumer product, has quickly expanded into industrial partnerships. It dramatically reduces contamination on critical surfaces such as glass, metal, ceramic, and now plastics too. Whether for medical devices or automotive components, our coating protects against surface fouling Currently our coatings work best on glass, metal, and ceramic surfaces.
spotLESS Materials develops environmentally sustainable liquid- and sludge-repellent self-healing surface coatings (LESS) to address fouling, icing, and self-cleaning needs across industries. They tailor coating solutions by application, surface, material, and durability requirements.
Their coatings create a liquid-entrenched smooth surface using liquid-infused nano-brush technology, forming an ultra-slippery layer that repels sludge, liquids, and mineral deposits. They offer solutions for multiple volumes (small to large), with industry-specific coatings for medical, sanitation, and automotive surfaces, including anti-ice and anti-fouling properties. Applications span glass, metals, and plastics, with customization based on the target surface and durability needs.
Who it’s for: Industrial and corporate partners across automotive, medical, and sanitation sectors seeking anti-fouling, anti-icing, or self-cleaning surface solutions.
