Company profile

spotLESS Materials company profile

spotLESS Materials engineers nature-inspired, ultra-repellent coatings that prevent fouling from liquids, sludge, bacteria, and mineral deposits. Their flagship technology, LESS (Liquid-Entrenched Smooth Surface), was originally developed to address sanitation challenges in low-water toilets. Inspired by the slippery surfaces of pitcher plants, LESS forms a molecularly smooth, liquid-infused barrier that significantly reduces the need for water, chemicals, and manual cleaning.
