EcoSmart Surface & Coating Technologies Inc. announced the development of a patented proprietary system that fully encapsulates vinyl asbestos tile (VAT). The Eco-NanoBond(TM) system is a three part system that eliminates the need for the demolition and removal of asbestos floors or walls. EcoSmart's Eco-NanoBond(TM) is a unique system which makes a base surface being coated chemically active to allow the system to cover and encapsulate VAT, toxic, degraded, cracked and soiled surfaces.

The system creates a solid monolithic light weight membrane by chemically bonding coatings together which effectively encapsulate asbestos. Eco-NanoBond system uses a thin polyaspartic layer which is the only type of coating with the elongation and flexibility to successfully encapsulate damaged surfaces that may continue to experience further degradation beneath the monolithic membrane. EcoSmart's Eco-NanoBond system provides both substantial cost and time savings and is easy to install on almost any type of floor from terrazzo to wood.
