Introducing Novara™: A Partnership to Deliver Next Generation Advanced Materials

Imagine a world where warmth is not just a function, but a feature that is seamlessly integrated, beautifully designed and engineered to elevate every product. Novara^TM, a new advanced materials company, is poised to bring that into reality.

Rethinking the Fundamentals

At Battelle, we believe that true innovation starts by reimagining what’s possible with biology, chemistry and advanced materials. For decades, products with heating functionality have been inefficient and uninspired. But what if warmth could be as intelligent, as elegant, and as transformative as the products we use every day?

That’s the question that brought together Battelle, a global leader in applied science and technology, and Nanotherm, a trailblazer in carbon-based thermal solutions. This is a partnership to challenge the status quo and create something entirely new.

The Power of Partnership

Novara is the result of this bold collaboration.

Battelle brings nearly a century of science and technology excellence, with breakthroughs in biology, chemistry and advanced materials, such as developing pioneering nanotechnology heating technologies for automotive and aerospace applications. 

Nanotherm, founded in 2016, has redefined what’s possible with carbon nanotube (CNT) technology, moving from coatings to ultra-thin, flexible films produced at scale. Their approach is agile, their results consistent, and their vision is to make heat smarter, safer and more sustainable.

Together, Novara is more than the sum of its parts. It’s a platform where advanced materials meet inspired design, enabling products to perform better, last longer and deliver warmth and protection exactly where it’s needed, without compromise.

A New Standard for Every Surface

Novara’s mission is to transform how the world makes and uses heat. With advanced materials engineered for trusted performance and reliability, Novara will set a new standard, where warmth is woven into the products we use.

This is just the beginning.

Novara’s advanced materials are positioned to power innovation across every industry they touch, like automotive, architecture, consumer goods and beyond. Imagine seats that warm instantly and environments that adapt to you.

At Battelle, we know that the best technology provides real-world impact. Novara will provide integrated materials for products, and help change the way people experience warmth, protection and performance.
