Diamon-Fusion International, Inc. (DFI Nanotechnology), global developer and exclusive licensor of patented hydrophobic nanotechnologies, along with its partner, New York Poly Steel, announce the completion of the large-scale coating project for the original Tiffany & Co. building at 15 Union Square Street in New York City, as well as the adjacent HSBC Bank and Skechers glass storefronts. The project utilized the award-winning Diamon-Fusion coating, on more than 700 different-sized insulating glass units, to protect the glass from harmful environmental elements, while helping to reduce the maintenance of the glass over time. Additional work was also requested by the client, outside the scope of the original bid, to treat a skylight, a translucent awning and a large area of flash-finish granite; a result of the client“s reaction to the final product after seeing the protective coating in action. Through DFI“s patented nano-coating process, the chemical treatment creates a water repellent effect which enables ease of cleaning and protection against scratches, abrasion, and environmental elements, therefore considerably reducing the costs of maintenance to the facade. The Diamon-Fusion nano-coating is optically clear, and does not affect the natural reflection of the glass exterior. As a result of this project, DFI and New York Poly Steel have secured additional interest and bids for other high-profile architectural projects in the Northeast region. This particular application, along with several other high-profile commercial projects, has raised awareness of the benefits of DFI“s suite of products and services to help commercial property owners and developers, on a global basis, keep their buildings beautified, while reducing harmful chemical usage and the effort needed.
