Frequently Asked Questions
Because this niche deals with prolonged use, demanding environments, humidity, daily exertion, and a greater need for product preservation. In professional boots and footwear, the technology adds a functional layer that enhances perceived hygiene, durability, safety, and well-being throughout intense workdays.
It is particularly relevant in lining, insoles, textile or synthetic uppers, synthetic laminates and soles, because these components are directly exposed to moisture, frequent contact, and intensive use.
Yes. This is one of the most critical aspects of professional footwear manufacturing. The solution helps preserve the product throughout manufacturing, storage, and distribution, reducing losses associated with mold growth and challenging conditions in the supply chain.
Yes. In work boots and footwear worn for many hours, controlling the bacteria associated with unpleasant odors in areas such as lining and insoles contributes to a more pleasant experience, with greater freshness and comfort throughout the day.
A ABNT 15275 is a standard for determining resistance to microbial attack in insoles, synthetic laminates, fabrics, and soles. For the professional sector, it is particularly useful because it directly addresses critical components of boots and footwear exposed to intense daily use, moisture, and storage conditions.
No. TNS Nano's goal is to incorporate functionality without compromising the product’s structure, comfort, or performance of the product. It adds a microbiological attribute to the treated component, but does not replace the mechanical, safety, or protective requirements mandated for the category.
No. It enhances the product by providing preservation, microbial control, and comfort, but it does not replace the specific safety, protection, puncture resistance, slip resistance, or structural performance requirements for professional footwear.
The incorporation depends on the component. In linings, textile insoles, and uppers, it is integrated according to the material's path; in synthetic laminates, the solution is adapted to the lamination process; and, in soles and polymeric components, the evaluation considers the matrix and the manufacturing process. All of this is adjusted without creating a new structural step in the production line.
Yes. TNS Nano operates in compliance with key standards for the footwear industry, such as ZDHC and OEKO-TEX®, enhancing technical safety, chemical responsibility, and greater confidence for industrial applications.
In addition to developing and validating the solution, TNS Nano provides technical expertise, planning, and marketing strategy to promote its product to the market.
