The Science
The Last Roof You’ll Ever Need
GoNano Is The First North American Company To Offer A Sealant That Replaces All Traditional Options. Its Nanosilica Technology Has Been Tested And Refined For Decades. This Advanced Formula Delivers Stronger Durability And Better Long-Term Savings Than Standard Asphalt Shingle Treatments.
GoNano technology has changed how roof sealants work. Traditional shingles are sealed with oil, which simply fills the gaps between them. GoNano works deeper—it permanently strengthens the molecular structure of each asphalt shingle. After application, a reaction inside the shingle creates S1 particles, which bond the granules together. This inside-out protection forms a stronger barrier against the elements and helps extend the lifespan of your roof, saving you money.
GoNano Advantages
GoNano Revive is an advanced solution for rejuvenating and protecting asphalt shingle roofs. It offers unmatched durability, reduced maintenance, and extends the lifespan of asphalt surfaces by a minimum of 5 to 10 years.
Elastic strain resilience, high tensile strength to pressure and load, fracture aversion.
Impervious to moisture infiltration.
Endures greater cycles and seasons of stress.
GONANO ADVANTAGES
The result: research shows one treatment of GoNano extends the average roof’s lifespan by 10 to 15 years.
Once modified, the new structural form of the asphalt enhances its durability, specifically its flexibility, hydrophoby, and anti-aging performance.
01
Modifies the molecular structure of asphalt shingles.
02
After application, reaction occurs with each shingle.
03
During reaction, both organic and inorganic material create new chemical links, called S1 particles.
04
S1 particles enter into asphalt pores and move outward, connecting with other shingles.
a unified barrier against strains caused by environmental factors
Nanosilica
Nanosilica is an inorganic nanomaterial, similar to silica, with an exceptionally high density of up to 99%. It is synthetically produced using several advanced methods, including precipitation, where silica reacts in a solvent before being purified and dispersed; hydrothermal or solvothermal processes, in which silica undergoes precipitation under high pressure and temperature; and thermal reduction, where silica is heated to extreme temperatures ranging from 1700°C to 2300°C. The enhanced performance of nanosilica comes from its strong pozzolanic reactivity, which allows it to fill microscopic pores within materials, increasing density, strength, and overall durability.
Similar to silica, an inorganic nanomaterial, composed of high silica density.
Synthetically created by precipitation, hydrothermal/solvothermal, or thermal reduction processes.
Modification occurs from pozzolanic reactivity (pore-filling).
Roof Classes and Certification
CLASS 1
Least resistant, can withstand at most a 1.25-inch steel ball test.
CLASS 2
Can withstand at most a 1.5-inch steel ball test.
CLASS 3
Can withstand at most a 1.75-inch steel ball test.
CLASS 4
Highest resistance, can withstand up to a 2-inch steel ball test.
Shingle Roof Classifications and GoNano Impact:
• Roofs are tested by Underwriters Laboratories for impact resistance, simulating hailstorms.
• Classes 1–4: Class 1 = least resistant, Class 4 = most resistant.
• Class 4 test: 2-inch steel ball dropped from 20 ft → no damage or cracking.
• Class 3–1: Steel balls gradually smaller; lower classes have more granule loss and shorter lifespan.
• Lifespan: Class 4 = 22–25 years; Class 1 ≈ 10–15 years.
• GoNano effect: 1 treatment → Class 1 → Class 3. 2 treatments → Class 1 → Class 4
Environment
In the coming years, the effects of climate change will mean an increase in severity of hail storms. Impact-resistant shingles will be a necessity for protection against increased frequency and strength of future storms.
GoNano’s technology provides a major innovation that transforms traditional roofs into hailstorm resistant roofs at a fraction of the cost of hailstorm resistant shingles.
We are the first and only company to offer this technology to the residential and commercial market.
GoNano has been tested to comply with the highest North American standards.
In addition, GoNano’s technology is completely safe for the environment and poses no threat to human health.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration categorized GoNano’s technology as “quickly biodegradable”, “no bioaccumulation potential”, and “no harm to aquatic organisms”.
