About
VSParticle is a nanotechnology company that develops and manufactures nanoparticle generators and nanoporous layer production systems using proprietary spark ablation technology, serving as the trusted partner for nanoporous layer (NPL) development and production in sensing and electrochemical products. The company's product portfolio includes the VSP-P1 NanoPrinter for automated nanoporous layer deposition and the VSP-G1 Generator for nanoparticle production. VSParticle's core technology sets new benchmarks for NPLs with material diversity compatible with 40+ materials including alloys and mixed-metal compositions, scalability with no polymer binders or chemicals thanks to a patented dry deposition technique, homogeneous layers with uniform nanostructures and controlled loading, high porosity of 60-80% outperforming typical benchmarks, and substrate-agnostic deposition on PTLs, Si wafers, ITOs, or client-specified substrates. The company offers an on-demand deposition service providing zero-CAPEX validation for fast-tracking technology validations, enabling faster R&D cycles, more confident material design decisions, and a shorter path to market, with scale-up support from early prototype through large-scale production. VSParticle serves energy applications including PEM-WE, fuel cells, CO2 conversion, and N2 conversion, as well as sensing applications including MOx gas sensing, electrochemical sensing, and SERS. The company collaborates with world-leading institutes including EPFL for high-selectivity CO2 reduction, META AI's Open Catalyst database for accelerated material discovery, and De Nora achieving 0.4 mg/cm2 iridium loading for PEM water electrolysers. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Delft, Netherlands, VSParticle has raised $26.8M in Series A funding from investors including Possible Ventures, NordicNinja, Plural, Hermann Hauser Investment, NXTGEN Hightech, BlueYard, EIC Fund, Europa, and YES!Delft.
