Emil Delgado, Vice President, COO of Piedmont Chemical Industries I, LLC agrees that the partnership has a bright future. “The alliance with NanoHorizons will yield innovative and technically superior products for our customers. SmartSilver is the ideal product for us because it uniquely provides permanent antimicrobial protection in a way that doesn't affect a fabric's hand or appearance or impede the effectiveness of any other technical finishes that may be used.”

NanoHorizon's nanotechnology expertise paired with Piedmont's textile chemistry proficiency will result in products that are easily integrated into the textile finishing
process or the fiber extrusion process. Both companies provide extensive technical support to ensure effective and efficient implementation for manufacturers.

Other products incorporating SmartSilver will be rapidly developed for Piedmont's additional market segments such as plastics and coatings and automotive textiles. SmartSilver provides not only superior antimicrobial benefits in these applications but is also UV-resistant.

Piedmont Chemical Industries Inc is a leading supplier of specialty chemicals to a variety of markets including textiles, plastics and coatings, pharmaceuticals, aerospace, and personal care. Founded in 1938, the company is privately held, headquartered in High Point, NC, and serves customers in 27 countries from its five U.S. facilities.
