**About Alchemy**

At Alchemy, our mission is to build a successful, scalable nanotechnology company for the 21st century. As a team, we’re pretty obsessive about this mission and relentless about accomplishing it.

Our core product, ExoShield, is a thin, durable, and transparent film applied to the outside of a vehicle’s windshield to prevent damage from rocks and road debris. ExoShield is a must have for today’s collectors, supercar owners, and commuters with high-tech sensors (ADAS) behind the windshield - protecting them against expensive windshield replacements. With 900 million vehicles with ADAS-technology entering the market in the next decade, our goal is to position ExoShield as the primary solution to what will be a $175 billion/year problem.
