The agreement means that Chemtech will develop products based on Svenska Aerogels material Quartzene® together with India's largest paint and coating manufacturers.
Svenska Aerogel is marketing the patented material Quartzene® which is a development of the super-material aerogel.

Quartzene® by Svenska Aerogel has greatly improved the relationship between price and performance compared to other aerogel products, making the price substantially halved without reducing performance.
Chemtech has a strong position in India and addresses the main manufacturers in the paint and coatings industry.
"The agreement with Chemtech gives us the opportunity to quickly get a solid foothold on the Indian market, which is one of the world's largest markets for paint and coatings.
