When the entire world was pushed to the wall by a lethal virus, we turned to the singular refuge of solutions for unknowns – Science, or to be exact, nanotechnology.
It all started in 2012 when the founders of Nanomatrix Materials discovered a huge graphite ore deposit in Africa, a one of its kind, unique with the best of the flakes available throughout the property. It was then they learned the potential of graphite and its applications that included lucrative usage in lithium-ion batteries.
Graphene was discovered in 2004 and caught its attention in 2010 when a Nobel Prize was won by two professors in the UK, Dr. Andre Geim and Dr. Kostya Novoselov, the ones who discovered graphene and changed the nanomaterials world for eternity.
The founders of Nanomatrix Materials were following the graphene space since then and started collecting global expertise and building relationships across the tiny yet effective industry.
In 2020, Nanomatrix was founded by Mr. Vikas Bardiya, who has been actively involved in the development of graphene for more than a decade. Besides, he is involved in a series of businesses such as real estate, mining, graphite, graphene, and nanotechnology. Application of diverse knowledge that he gathered from different sectors made him the true serial entrepreneur that he is. His expertise lies in visualization, development insights, management, and operations. He is a Regents Business School, London BBA graduate.
Mr. Bardiya, along with a team of young scientists, collectively visualize, conceptualize, synthesize nanomaterials, and integrate them into real-world applications. The trio makes a perfect combination of diversity, leadership, and experience with the aim of putting India on the central stage of the graphene revolution.
This core team is supported by technical advisors Dr. Pankaj Poddar, Senior Principal Scientist, CSIR-NCL, Pune, and Prof. Tarkeshwar Kumar, Professor of Petroleum Engineering, IIT (ISM), Dhanbad. The technical advisors advise and troubleshoot technical problems. The scientists and professors from the team have been involved in materials and lubricant R&D as well as teaching for more than 15 years.
Nanomatrix focuses on R&D and manufacturing of various products using Graphene. It is one of the first companies in the country that specializes in integrating graphene into a number of applications and creating value-added propositions. The company partners with industry players in domains such as filtration, polymers, construction, energy, and textiles to solve their unique challenges through the power of graphene nanotechnology. A number of patents related to environmental cleanups, antimicrobial systems, energy efficiency, etc., have been filed by Nanomatrix.
Soon after the spread of the pandemic in 2020, a revolutionary solution namely NM-GTx was developed by Nanomatrix — a Graphene-Silver Nanotechnology Composite that is strongly antimicrobial and has multiple uses across sectors. This can be applied to masks, PPE kits, textiles, clothing, filters, furniture, and surfaces.
Materials treated with NM-GTx act like an electrically charged layer that ruptures the cell membrane and destroys it instantly. Henceforth, Nanomatrix, through its consumer brand “G1 Wonders,” has introduced a series of products like masks, air conditioner filters, antimicrobial surface coating sprays, and more.
They are practically taking charge and bridging the gap between theory and application by providing the best quality graphene globally — even valued by an Israel-based company, Graphene-Info. Many publications including Business Standard, Economic Times, Financial Express, YourStory, and others have featured Nanomatrix Materials.
Certified by NABL / Government-approved laboratories
The NM Graphene-Silver Membrane with the Graphene-Silver Nanotechnology has been tested & certified by the following laboratories – SITRA, CEG Test House, Himway Test House, Seagull Bio Solutions, Biotech Testing Services & ITS Laboratories.
BARDIYA GROUP
Based out of Jaipur, India, the group was founded in 1978 by Mr. Rajendra K. Bardiya. It has marked its presence as a renowned Real Estate Developer, Gemstone Trade House and Mining. It is operated by a team of highly qualified professionals under the administrative leadership of Mr. Gaurav and Mr. Vikas Bardiya.
G1 WONDERS
G1 Wonders is the consumer products wing (B2C) of the group that has its presence in online as well as brick & mortar retail space. It has a number of consumer products (B2C) introduced and lined up for the future with Graphene as the key material in them with an enhanced user experience for such product.
