HALO SURFACES INTERNATIONAL LIMITED
Halo’s 21st Century Matrix-Nano™
nanotechnology coatings and
sealers have been developed in
the United States. Halo Surfaces
supplies markets in Europe, USA,
Canada, the Middle East, Africa,
Asia and the Pacific through its
hubs in UK, USA and Australasia.
Halo’s coatings and sealers
are unlike any other available
in the marketplace, and are
designed to deliver you superior
performance. They are nano-
based coatings and sealers
which are manufactured using
a controlled chemical reaction
in a reactor. This process forms
covalent molecular bonds (the
strongest of all chemical bonds)
between the nano composites and
polymer molecules and becomes
an integrated lattice nano-matrix.
What Coating is right for my job?
That will depend on a number of things.
1. What is the substrate?
2. Do you need a non-breathable coating or a breathable sealer?
3. Do you want a shiny or gloss surface or do you need the protection to be virtually
invisible?
4. Is it a high-traffic area?
5. Do you need to provide a anti-slip solution?
6. Do you need to protect against graffiti?
7. Is the substrate interior or exterior?
Rest assured the correct Halo Surfaces product WILL deliver you the solution you need.

The Science:
Halo coatings are manufactured using a controlled chemical reaction in
a reactor. This process forms covalent molecular bonds (the strongest
of all chemical bonds) between the nano composites and polymer
molecules and becomes an integrated lattice nano-matrix.
Conventional polymer coatings, especially those with high performance properties
MIX organic polymers with inorganic additives in an attempt to leverage the desirable
properties of each. They can be MIXED but they don’t really like each other and don’t “play
well together”.
Most conventional industrial coatings are based on synthetic polymers with extremely
large organic molecules. Polymers provide adhesion, chemical resistance and flexibility.
They are also susceptible to damage and degradation by exposure to sunlight. Energetic
solar degradation creates ‘free radicals’ dangling electrons that can tear apart large
organic molecules and change their chemical properties, usually in undesirable ways.
An example of this process is how energetic solar radiation can
create free radicals in skin cells, modify the large organic molecules
in our cells, namely the DNA, and cause skin cancer.
As radiation-induced degradation occurs, the ability of a conventional coating to provide
chemical an corrosion protection also degrades. This can cause whitening of the coating
and de-lamination. To compensate, conventional polymer coatings will often contain a
small percentage of inorganic material.
They have a far larger proportion of inorganic oxides and our innovative process combines
the best properties of those inorganic oxides (think of the properties of rock and glass) -
their lattice structure provides strength, hardness, durability and UV resistance. After all,
rock and glass are not much affected by solar radiation and have to suffer a significant
impact before they break.
Halo Concrete
Function Centre
This function centre has a tiled floor
which gets very dirty from people
dancing on it and generally having
a good time. It was difficult and
time consuming, and therefore
expensive, to clean. Halo’s
Concrete was applied and the floor
is now beautiful and easy to clean.
Halo Concrete
- Halo Concrete with Enhancer Plus
on floor
- Halo Wood on doors
- Halo Metal on Metalier-rust
feature wall
- Office for Consulting Engineers
This fit-out was a showcase for
Halo coatings and the rust finishes
created by its sister company,
Metalier. The floor was damaged
by the builders dragging partitions
along it. The Halo Concrete coat
was able to be easily repaired and
no long-term harm was done.

That inorganic lattice structure can allow brittle fractures along the lattice planes. Rocks,
when they break tend to fracture along lattice lines. So the addition of organic polymer
components in Halo coatings provide elasticity, tensile strength, chemical resistance and
adhesion.
But unlike conventional polymer coatings, Halo coatings are not simply mixed blends of
inorganic and organic components. Our unique process reorganizes the organic polymer
chains and chemically bonds them within the inorganic lattice structure. A completely
integrated lattice matrix results and retains the best properties of each while eliminating
virtually all of her less desirable properties of the components taken individually.
And all this takes place at a nanotechnology level.
Hence our name for the science - Matrix-Nano™.
Matrix-Nano™ nanotechnology allows Halo
coatings to have the following properties:
1. Be durable
2. Have excellent adhesion - bonding and cross-linking to the substrate
3. Be easy and convenient to apply
4. Be environmentally sensitive
To expand...
1. Durability
• The high ration of inorganic to organic components results in an extremely hard
surface.
• Using a classic measurement of material hardness, such as Ridgeway’s extension of
the Mohs scale, a conventional polymer coating will have a hardness of 4 whereas
Halo coatings range from 7-8.
• Halo coatings resist methylene chloride solutions such as commercial paint thinners
2. Adhesion
• Halo coatings are thin and allow more surface contact between the substrate and the
inorganic polymers embedded in the matrix
• High cross-link density within the material itself improves corrosion and chemical
resistance. High cross-link density from the coating material to the substrate improves
adhesion and bonding
Halo Multi-surface Sealer
Academic College
This test conducted by an
Academic College shows the
effectiveness of Halo’s Multi-
surface sealer. An exposed area of
aggregate was getting dirty quickly
from the effects of the weather.
The College cleaned a triangle
of aggregate in the middle of the
picture and Halo Multi-surface
sealer was applied to the left hand
triangle. In the foreground and
background of the picture is un-
cleaned un-treated aggregate. On
the right is the cleaned aggregate
one month later. On the left is Halo’s
Multi-surface Sealer showing no
signs of dirt or grime.
Halo Enhancer Plus
Office Floor
The designer of this fit-out wanted
an enhanced look for the concrete
floor that was not a coating.
Enhancer Plus was chosen for its
good looks, its cost-effectiveness
and its speed of application....

3. Ease & Convenience
• Most conventional polymers need to be combined with a catalyst to cure. So any
excess mixed is wasted.
• Halo coatings harden by air-drying
• Second or multiple coats can be applied within minutes
• Curing time is shorter than conventional coatings
4. Environmentally Sensitive
• Halo coatings contain less VOC s than the regulation minimum requirements set by
California South Coast Air Quality Control Authority - the strictest in the USA.
• Halo coatings contain no harmful isocyanate hardening agents. They literally harden
and cure with oxygen and the moisture in the air.
This is what gives them superior performance and longevity. Halo Coatings extend the
life of equipment, machinery, buildings and objects – they protect, preserve and enhance
your assets.
Halo Concrete - Design by Spaceworks Design Group
...The fit-out had run over budget
and over time. Halo’s Enhancer
Plus dries in less than 5 minutes
and 100 sq m can be covered
in an hour. This floor was sealed
at the very last moment. Halo’s
water-based Enhancer Blue will
achieve the same result but it
takes 15 minutes to dry. It is a
good green choice if you can
wait the 15 minutes!
