Many properties of current products can be improved with additional features through the use of nanomaterials. This increases the perceived value of the products, adds customer satisfaction and gives competitive advantage to the manufacturer. For example, nano-titanium dioxide based self-cleaning windows, roof tiles, sanitary ware, plasters and paints are already in production. The method can be used in several different application areas.

Soiling of surfaces, algae, moss and bacterial growth are common problems in everyday life that cause discomfort, lower the level of hygiene and shorten the lifespan of products.  Cleaning at regular intervals requires labor and inflicts costs for example in the cleaning of facades, food processing and surfaces in healthcare facilities.
