Ross Nanotechnology Corporation presents NeverWet™, a new line of consumer products created with their patent-pending Nanotech coating that repels water. Its first product is the Clear-n-Clean Plunger. Unlike traditional plungers, the Clear-n-Clean Plunger is superhydrophobic – it never gets wet, and it repels virtually all germs and bacteria from its surface.
Keeping your family safe from germs is a major concern in every household. E-Coli, salmonella, stomach flu and SARS are just a few of the dangerous bacteria found in toilet water. Traditional plungers dipped in toilet bowl water pick up millions of these germs, drip them all over the bathroom floor, and create a hazardous object in your home. By applying the NeverWet™ Nanotech coating to the Clear-n-Clean Plunger, laboratory tests have shown virtually no bacteria can grow on the plunger. And because the plunger stays dry, contaminated water can’t drip onto other surfaces, keeping your bathroom clean and your family safe.

“Its Nanotech coating prevents water from ever touching the surface of the plunger. The unpleasant task of unclogging toilets just became a little easier,” said Dan Hobson, Ross Technology CEO.
Ross Nanotechnology Corporation has invested millions in research and development into the material science of Nanotechnology. “We can use NeverWet™ coating on any surface where water or ice is a problem, the surface always stays dry. Water rolls off the coating in a manner similar to mercury rolling on a countertop.” said Vinod K. Sikka, PhD, Ross Technology Corporation's Director of Research.
“This patent-pending NeverWet ™ coating could be used for the protection of steel products, like bridges, power lines and structures keeping water and ice off their surfaces and keeping them immune to rust,” notes Ross Technology President, Andrew Jones. This major R&D investment has also opened the door for a line of reasonably priced consumer products. Ross Nanotechnology is planning a series of consumer items that will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of everyday household chores.
