In the near future, the effects of climate change will mean an increase in the strength and severity of weather and storms. Impact-resistant shingles will be a necessity for protection against increased frequency and strength of future storms.
GoNano’s technology provides major innovation that transforms traditional asphalt roofs into hailstorm resistant roofs at just a fraction of the cost of hailstorm resistant shingles.
GoNano is the first and only company to offer this amazing new technology to the residential and commercial market. Ry's Family GxNano is the first and only GoNano Contractors in the state of Maine.
GoNano has been tested to comply with the highest North American standards. In addition, GoNano’s technology is completely safe for the environment and poses no threat to human health. GoNano technology has been classified as “quickly biodegradable”, “no bioaccumulation potential”, and “no harm to aquatic organisms”.

GoNano: a unified barrier against strains caused by environmental factors
GoNano technology has changed how roof sealants work. Traditional shingles are sealed with oil, which simply fills the gaps between them.
GoNano works deeper—it permanently strengthens the molecular structure of each asphalt shingle. After application, a reaction inside the shingle creates S1 particles, which bond the granules together.
This inside-out protection forms a stronger barrier against the elements and helps extend the lifespan of your roof, saving you money.

Roof Classes and Certification
CLASS 1
Least resistant, can withstand at most a 1.25-inch steel ball test.
CLASS 2
Can withstand at most a 1.5-inch steel ball test.
CLASS 3
Can withstand at most a 1.75-inch steel ball test.
CLASS 4
Highest resistance, can withstand up to a 2-inch steel ball test.
Shingle Roof Classifications and GoNano Impact:
• Roofs are tested by Underwriters Laboratories for impact resistance, simulating hailstorms.
• Classes 1–4: Class 1 = least resistant, Class 4 = most resistant.
• Class 4 test: 2-inch steel ball dropped from 20 ft → no damage or cracking.
• Class 3–1: Steel balls gradually smaller; lower classes have more granule loss and shorter lifespan.
• Lifespan: Class 4 = 22–25 years; Class 1 ≈ 10–15 years.
• GoNano effect: 1 treatment → Class 1 → Class 3; 2 treatments → Class 1 → Class 4
