Business
Nanophase Technologies Corporation specializes in the development, manufacture, and commercialization of engineered nanomaterial products primarily focused on mineral-based health care solutions across beauty and life science categories. Its main products include surface-engineered zinc oxide and titanium dioxide used in sunscreens and personal care products; fully formulated cosmetics, sun care, and skin care products marketed under the Solésence brand; advanced materials such as architectural and industrial coatings, abrasion-resistant additives, plastics additives, medical diagnostics materials, and various surface finishing technologies. The company serves diverse markets including personal care, cosmetics, medical diagnostics, coatings, catalysts, textiles, antimicrobials, and ultra-fine polishing applications, including in semiconductor wafers, hard disk drives, and specialty optics. Nanophase operates primarily in the United States, with manufacturing and research facilities in Romeoville and Burr Ridge, Illinois. Founded in 1989, the company is headquartered in Romeoville, Illinois. Recent major changes include Nanophase's strategic rebranding as Solésence Incorporated in 2025 to strengthen its presence in the skin care and beauty segments. The company has achieved record financial performance in 2024, with revenue increasing by 40% to $52.3 million and net income of $4.2 million reversing prior losses. Operational expansions include doubling production capacity and adding three new ISO 6 clean rooms with enhanced automation to support over $200 million in annual revenue potential. Nanophase launched over two dozen new SKUs in 2024 and continues to expand commercial manufacturing capabilities. It is actively pursuing uplisting to NASDAQ in 2025 and searching for a dedicated CFO to support this next growth phase. The Solésence subsidiary recorded a 171% year-over-year revenue increase in Q3 2024, underscoring strong demand for its mineral-based sunscreen technology with unique properties that avoid the white "ghosting" effect common in zinc oxide sunscreens. Nanophase Technologies integrates patented nanomaterial technologies with a solution-oriented approach to customer applications, leveraging 18 U.S. patents and 48 foreign patents. Its products combine nanotechnology innovation with compliance to FDA safety standards, positioning it as a leading provider of scientifically driven mineral-based health care and surface engineering solutions. The company targets both B2B customers including skin care manufacturers and industrial product users, and end markets in North America primarily. This comprehensive portfolio and strategic operational advancements underpin Nanophase’s robust growth trajectory and market positioning in the nanotechnology and personal care product sectors.
