About Nanoval:
Founded in 1987 by Dr. Lüder Gerking, NANOVAL is a pioneer in gas atomization using Laval nozzles, a technology originally based on a patent by Prof. Alfred Walz, a student of fluid dynamics pioneer Ludwig Prandtl. With deep roots in high temperature metallurgy and technical textiles, NANOVAL is today a trusted partner for the aerospace, automotive, and medical industries, as well as for additive manufacturing and 3D metal printing.
I had the opportunity to redesign the corporate website for NANOVAL, a Berlin based, owner managed company with over 30 years of innovation in metal powder atomization.
To reflect NANOVAL’s international reach and its role as a hidden champion in the field, the new website was developed in four languages: German, English, French, and Spanish, making their expertise accessible to a global audience.
The new site highlights:
• NANOVAL’s rich history of innovation
• Their unique dual focus: powder production & plant engineering
• Expertise in handling over 1,300 alloy types, from magnesium to tungsten
• Flexible production from R&D samples to industrial batch sizes
• Their role as a development partner for high-tech industries
• Multilingualism (DE / EN / FR / ES)
• Responsive design for all devices
• Their unique dual focus: powder production & plant engineering
• Expertise in handling over 1,300 alloy types, from magnesium to tungsten
• Flexible production from R&D samples to industrial batch sizes
• Their role as a development partner for high-tech industries
• Multilingualism (DE / EN / FR / ES)
• Responsive design for all devices
Goal:
The goal of this project was to reposition NANOVAL’s corporate website as a clear reflection of their technological leadership, international reach, and dual expertise in powder production and plant engineering. The website needed to communicate complex industrial processes in an accessible, visually engaging way while supporting multiple languages for a global audience.
Challenges:
Complex technical content: Conveying detailed information about over 1,300 alloy types, atomization processes, and high-tech industrial applications in a clear and digestible format.
Dual focus: Balancing NANOVAL’s role in both powder production and plant engineering without confusing the audience.
International audience: Designing a seamless multilingual experience (DE / EN / FR / ES) that felt natural in all languages.
Responsive and flexible design: Ensuring the website delivers a consistent experience across devices, from desktop to mobile.
