KITCHENER, August 10, 2017 – Sustainable Development Technology Canada has approved
funding (or non-repayable contribution) $2.7 million in non-dilutive funding to 3E Nano Inc. (3E
Nano) for the development of a full-scale demonstration manufacturing facility in Ontario. This
facility will manufacture a low cost thermally and optically smart solar/energy control coating and
will initially create up to 36 new jobs.
To assist in the commercialization of the proprietary patented technology, 3E Nano has formed a
consortium of strategic industrial partners that includes:
– Global public diversified chemical company;
– Canadian private window covering company;
– Canadian private engineering company performing building retrofits in North America;
– Canadian private automotive windshield technology company;
– Global public equipment manufacturer based in Germany;
– Leading Canadian universities.

“Our government’s investments in clean technology reflect our commitment to protecting the
planet. But they also point to a clear and strategic direction for economic development through
innovation. That’s because innovations in clean tech will lead to products and services that
have an impact on all sectors of the economy and has the potential to create thousands of well paying
jobs for Canadians. That’s how innovation leads to a better Canada,” says The
Honourable Navdeep Bains, Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development.
“Our technology is not only innovative but cost effective. Its implementation in architecture
and the transportation sectors will have a profound impact on Canada’s greenhouse gas
reduction targets. We are pleased that the SDTC is supporting us with this funding,”                                                                              says Nicholas Komarnycky, Founder/CEO of 3E Nano.

3E Nano’s technology is disruptive, taking advantage of low cost materials and industry
standard manufacturing processes to produce nano-thin films at much lower cost. In addition
to the tunable optical properties of the coating, the technology has the added advantage of
being highly electrically conductive and therefore able to heat a given surface in a controlled
and fully uniform manner.
