Our Values
Passion
We bring our best selves to every challenge, every day to deliver optimal results
Ingenuity
We apply imagination and logic to develop creative solutions to new problems
Innovation
We turn expertise and insight into new technology that transforms products and industries
Hard Work
We are dedicated and we persevere, putting in the effort required to get the job done
Integrity
We are committed to doing what is right for our people, customers, communities, and society
Excellence
We do not settle for anything less than outstanding quality and superior results for our customers and ourselves
What began as lab research at the University of Colorado led to a transformational approach to nanocoating technology. We turned this technology into a patented solution with commercially viable manufacturing scale.
2016
Capital raises support manufacturing growth
We closed on seed funding and expanded our manufacturing capacity ten-fold with a new commercial facility to enable large-scale integration into the lithium-ion market.
2019
Major funds catalyze large-scale commercialization
Investments from Volkswagen, LG Technology Ventures and Mitsui Kinzoku helped accelerate large-scale commercial production of high-performance materials for new battery technologies.
2020
Forge Nano merges with ALD NanoSolutions
The merger combined forces of leading experts on atomic layer deposition to commercialize atomic layer manufacturing. Soon after, we opened a 40,000-sq-ft, state-of-the-art innovation lab and production facility to support growing customer demand.
2021
New uses for technology in space and catalysts
We developed the world’s first ALD-enhanced space battery launched aboard a SpaceX rocket, which showed substantial improvement vs. uncoated batteries. We were also awarded a Department of Energy grant to optimize catalysts with our proprietary Atomic Armor nanocoating technology.
2022
Expansion in automotive supply chain
Atomic Armor-enabled batteries gained commercial traction in the automotive market, leading to batteries with longer lifetime, increased range and enhanced safety. First commercial licenses for Atomic Armor IP and large-scale equipment sales.
