Innovation define us

The global water crisis, the urgent need for Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD), the ESG wave, and carbon neutrality goals collectively demand that next-generation membrane technology must simultaneously possess multiple characteristics: high efficiency, low carbon footprint, longevity, and safety.

Snano emerged in response to this tide of the times. We pioneered the perfect combination of ceramic durability with the precise filtration capabilities of organic materials, creating an entirely new category of membrane materials.

Snano ceramic-based composite membranes break traditional membrane performance barriers through pioneering trans-material interfacial polymerisation, overcoming the "performance-cost-application" trilemma in membrane separation technology. With a quarter of the world's cities facing severe water scarcity, this provides innovative solutions for efficient water treatment and industrial separation.

Academic network

Snano maintains close collaboration with research institutions such as Nanyang Technological University and the Singapore Membrane Technology Centre, ensuring that Snano always remains at the forefront of technology.

Wang Rong, our CSO, serves as the company's technical soul. She is not only an Academician of the Academy of Engineering Singapore and Presidential Chair Professor at Nanyang Technological University, but also received Singapore's highest honor for scientists and engineers in 2022—the President's Science and Technology Award.
