Why Fahrenheit 2451?
The nanoform is a unique information storage medium where data, shrunk to a microscopic size.
The nanoform resists any deterioration: light, scratches, water, chemicals – all fluids in fact – and extreme temperatures.
CAUTION - LAVA HOT !

The nanoform emerges like new from the 2451° fahrenheit test!
Born in the renown CEA-LETI lab of the French Silicon Valley, the dark blue, elegant disk looks like an objet d'art on your mantelpiece.
Yet, in a fire, it would be the one object left untouched.
Why the nanoform?
Unlike CDs, USB keys, hard drives... that get damaged or stop working with your new computer, the nanoform protects your most precious data forever.
Unlike the Cloud... that gets hacked, bursts when companies disappear, and dematerializes your information, the nanoform is yours to keep: in your hands, around your neck, or on your mantelpiece.
“The nanoform's lifespan is virtually endless. We're talking millenniums. It’s also revolutionary, in this all-digital era, to imprint information analogically” Alain Rey, inventor of the nanoform.

How does it work?
Documents are shrunk 30,000 times and engraved between two thin sapphire wafers using high-precision photolithography technology (i)
Manufacturing takes place in a clean room environment so that nothing interferes with your data – not even a speck of dust. The wafers are then fused together - no glue is used in the process - leaving the nanoform unalterable.

The final nanoform is a beautiful object, readable anytime, anywhere. A simple magnifying glass is enough to read the data preserved in this high-tech jewel-like disk.
The nanoform also comes with an online viewing platform to search and zoom into a specific photo or text, display the content on TV, or share it with a friend.

The nanoform, a worldwide storage solution
Our large nanoforms have been burried on the ocean floor (Greenpeace, 2013) and will soon be sent to the moon (Carnegie Mellon Moon Ark project, June 2015). It has also been available to industrials and governmental offices.
We want to create a version available to anyone.
