Meet Anasuya Roy, the visionary behind Nanosafe Solutions Pvt. Ltd., a trailblazing venture at the forefront of material science innovation.

Anasuya's journey began at the prestigious IIT Delhi, where she earned both her M. Tech and PhD, culminating in her groundbreaking research in antimicrobial technology.

Drawing from her academic prowess and a prestigious DAAD-IIT Master Scholarship stint at the University of Stuttgart, Germany, Anasuya established Nanosafe Solutions as an academic spin-off, revolutionizing the landscape of material science technologies in India.

At the heart of Nanosafe Solutions lies its patented antimicrobial technology, leveraging the power of active copper to combat a myriad of microbes with an astounding 99.99% efficacy.

This game-changing technology has found its way into various applications, from water tanks to consumer products like the innovative NSafe masks, AqCure water bottles, and the FDA-approved RubSafe sanitizer.

But Nanosafe Solutions is not just about antimicrobial prowess.
The company boasts a diverse portfolio of novel material technologies, including biodegradable plastics, mineral fortification in polymer masterbatch, and anti-scaling solutions for water systems.

These innovations have earned Anasuya and her team prestigious accolades, including the National Tech Excellence Award by DST, Government of India.

The impact of Nanosafe Solutions transcends mere technological advancements.

Consider the AqCure antimicrobial water bottle, a marvel of engineering that not only ensures pristine water quality but also tackles the pervasive issue of water contamination in low-income households.

By combating microbial growth in stored water, these bottles are empowering communities and safeguarding health.

In a market dominated by nano-silver technology, Nanosafe Solutions stands out with its eco-friendly and cost-effective copper-based solutions.

With over 5000 direct-to-consumer customers and a growing network of distributors, the company is poised to revolutionize the antimicrobial industry.

Anasuya's relentless pursuit of excellence has garnered widespread recognition, from the Women Entrepreneurship Award by the Delhi Management Association to the WASME SME Excellence Award.
