Industrial Nanotech to Target Automotive Industry to Keep Car Interiors Cooler and Reduce Fuel Consumption


NAPLES, Fla., Aug. 24, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- Industrial Nanotech, Inc. (Pink Sheets:INTK), a leader in the development and commercialization of nanotechnology related products, today announced that the Company has signed a development agreement with a leading scientific group to produce a prototype of, and the high volume manufacturing equipment specifications for, a re-engineered version of the current nanocomposite used by Industrial Nanotech, to target the automotive industry.

The re-engineered version of Nansulate(tm) is being designed for use in the interior of automobiles to provide additional thermal insulation, thus reducing fuel consumption by reducing an air conditioning system's workload. The Companies will work together to develop the manufacturing equipment and processes required to produce the material in volumes sufficient to supply the anticipated demand for this new product. The new particle is the subject of patent applications filed by the inventor, Stuart Burchill, CEO of Industrial Nanotech, Inc., in February of 2004.

Industrial Nanotech CEO, Stuart Burchill, stated, "We believe that Industrial Nanotech can develop a technology that will keep car interiors cooler in warm weather, thus conserving fuel and reducing an automobile's energy consumption. Additionally, we are confident that the cost of integrating this composite into current manufacturing processes will be commercially viable and enable us to target automotive OEM's for incorporation into their product lines. With the current energy crisis in this country, such a product could generate substantial demand, potentially altering the automobile manufacturing process."

Management believes that the potential of this product to save energy and reduce fuel consumption will allow the Company to expand its current product offerings and target markets to include the automotive industry. Industrial Nanotech's existing product line of Nansulate(tm) Translucent coatings provides superior thermal insulation and prevents corrosion under insulation, a debilitating problem that affects several industries including Oil & Gas, Petrochemicals and Shipbuilding.
