C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™ questions, with the company’s answers and the sources they come from.
Last reviewed: .
All questions in this libraryWhich legal entity owns the technology, sells the products and accepts the contractual obligations?
C-POLAR Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, is the C-POLAR party to the Terms of Use, and this site sells no products.
C-POLAR is the health science company behind patented NanoFlashing™ technology. The Terms of Use state: “These Terms are between you and C-POLAR Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation, whose notice address is c/o C-POLAR Innovations, Inc., 889 Harbourside Drive, North Vancouver, BC V7P 3S1, Canada.” The Site does not sell products or accept orders. The Terms of Use state that the Site does not include shop.cpolartechnologies.com, shopusa.cpolartechnologies.com, another online store that displays separate terms, or a C-POLAR page hosted on a third-party platform, and that a store and every purchase from it are governed only by the terms presented there. Those two stores are C-POLAR's own. C-POLAR markets a materials technology. The manufacturer and seller of a finished product are responsible for its design, manufacture, labeling, instructions, claims, sale, and warranty, except for a responsibility C-POLAR expressly accepts in a Separate Agreement. The company does not publish its corporate structure. Only an express written warranty that identifies C-POLAR as the warrantor creates a C-POLAR warranty.

All questionsCan each named partnership or customer reference be supported by an authorized current record?
The manufacturing partners named on the site are named with their own web addresses, and each partner controls what is said about the work.
The manufacturing partners named on the About page are Aero Pro, AQ Filter, BGE Indoor Air Quality Solutions, Olympic International and VOLZ Filters. Every commercial NanoFlashing™ product is made by a manufacturing partner, in their facility, in their format. Development runs configuration by configuration, and each partner controls what is said about the work. The Validation page describes its sites by type, place and period, not by customer name: a public hospital in Vancouver, a financial landmark in London, a major international airport in the US and a public university in Melbourne. Nothing on the Site authorizes anyone to manufacture, integrate, market, resell, or describe a product as C-POLAR-enabled. Nothing authorizes anyone to describe itself as a C-POLAR partner. Written permission is required.

All questionsAre company filings current rather than overdue?
The company does not publish the status of its filings.
For the air filter, the company classifies the article itself, and the records and filings a device producer must keep are set out in the regulations. The Statement of Classification classifies the NanoFlashing™ Air Filter as a device under Section 2(h) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, 7 U.S.C. § 136(h), and 40 C.F.R. § 152.500(a). Under 40 C.F.R. § 152.500(b) a device is not required to be registered under FIFRA section 3, and the requirements that apply instead are labelling; establishment registration and reporting; books and records; inspection of establishments; violations, enforcement and penalties; import and export; child-resistant packaging; and the Agency’s authority under FIFRA section 25(c)(4). Three of those requirements are set out in 40 C.F.R. parts 156, 167 and 169: the label under part 156, establishment registration and the production reports under part 167, and, under 40 C.F.R. § 169.2(b) to (e), records of devices produced, received and shipped, each retained two years, and a current record of devices in stock; the others rest on FIFRA sections 9, 12 to 14, 17, 25(c)(3) and 25(c)(4), as 40 C.F.R. § 152.500(b) states. No agency has approved, registered or cleared the article.

Who has authority to sign a supply or licence agreement for the company?
The Terms of Use define a Separate Agreement as a written agreement signed by an authorized C-POLAR officer, and the company does not publish which officers are authorized.
Only an express written warranty that identifies C-POLAR as the warrantor creates a C-POLAR warranty. A warranty, manual, statement, order confirmation, or other document issued only by a manufacturer, seller, distributor, or other third party does not bind C-POLAR. Accessing the Site or contacting C-POLAR through the Site does not create a partnership, agency, joint venture, distribution right, supply commitment, license, exclusive right, or other business relationship. The company does not publish its corporate structure. A notice is sent by the route the Terms of Use set out: “A notice to C-POLAR must be sent to [email protected] with the subject “Legal Notice” and by a tracked delivery method to C-POLAR Technologies, Inc., c/o C-POLAR Innovations, Inc., 889 Harbourside Drive, North Vancouver, BC V7P 3S1, Canada.”

Who is accountable at board level for product-claim oversight?
The company does not publish who at board level oversees its claims; its position on what is claimed is in its two statements, and each names the entity that issues it.
The Statement of Classification for the air filter is issued by NF Technical Products Inc. The Statement of Regulatory Status is issued by C-POLAR Technologies, Inc. For a finished product, what is claimed is the maker’s. Development runs configuration by configuration, and each partner controls what is said about the work. The manufacturer and seller of a finished product are responsible for its design, manufacture, labeling, instructions, claims, sale, and warranty, except for a responsibility C-POLAR expressly accepts in a Separate Agreement. A warranty, manual, statement, order confirmation, or other document issued only by a manufacturer, seller, distributor, or other third party does not bind C-POLAR.

Does the company have a documented conflict-of-interest process?
The company has not published a conflict-of-interest process.
The company does not publish its governance documents. What it states about independence is in its Terms of Use: “A citation, quotation, name, logo, link, or third-party test does not by itself mean that the third party sponsors, endorses, certifies, or approves C-POLAR, a C-POLAR product, a Site claim, or a proposed use.” The numbered reports it cites were issued by laboratories outside it. The published paper states that the work was supported by unrestricted grants from C-POLAR Technologies, Inc., and in part by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council, the Czech Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports (MEYS), the KGH Foundation and the University of British Columbia Okanagan, and that its authors declare no conflict of interest; it also states: “A.R. receives consulting fees from C-POLAR Technologies, Inc.” Three of its 31 authors list C-POLAR Technologies as their affiliation. The work was also supported in part by the US National Institutes of Health, grant AI132638, to M.K.M., which NIH RePORTER lists as Prof. Mansour's grant at Massachusetts General Hospital; the grant is printed in the paper's manuscript rather than in the published acknowledgments.

All questionsCan a customer distinguish a parent company guarantee from an operating-company promise?
Yes: the Terms of Use state that only an express written warranty that identifies C-POLAR as the warrantor creates a C-POLAR warranty.
A warranty, manual, statement, order confirmation, or other document issued only by a manufacturer, seller, distributor, or other third party does not bind C-POLAR. A prospective partner may rely only on a commitment stated in a Separate Agreement, which the Terms define as a written agreement signed by an authorized C-POLAR officer. These Terms do not govern the sale, delivery, installation, return, warranty, or use of a finished product. NanoFlashing™ is a technology; the name, rating and sale of a product that carries it are set by that product's maker and seller.

The Site does not sell products or accept orders. The Terms of Use do not govern the sale, delivery, installation, return, warranty, or use of a finished product.

Does the corporate structure create dependencies on entities outside the contracting group?
Yes, and the company publishes that dependency: every commercial product is made by someone else.
Every commercial NanoFlashing™ product is made by a manufacturing partner, in their facility, in their format. The manufacturing partners named on the About page are Aero Pro, AQ Filter, BGE Indoor Air Quality Solutions, Olympic International and VOLZ Filters. “We bring the science and the independent evidence behind it. Partners bring the products, the production lines, and the market knowledge.” Development runs configuration by configuration, and each partner controls what is said about the work.

All questionsCan public biographies substantiate claimed qualifications of key officers?
The company does not publish the names or biographies of its officers.
The one person the site quotes is Prof. Michael K. Mansour, MD, PhD, Associate Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Division of Infectious Diseases, Massachusetts General Hospital, and the site does not describe him as an officer or adviser of the company. It links to his profile at Massachusetts General Hospital. The peer-reviewed paper lists the affiliation of every author: Gong, Or, Sze et al., Microbiology Spectrum 12(9), e0409723, American Society for Microbiology, September 2024, doi 10.1128/spectrum.04097-23.

All questionsCan the company identify who is authorised to speak on legal status?
The company’s position on legal status is the position in its own statements, and a legal notice has one published route.
The Statement of Classification for the United States and the Statement of Regulatory Status for the European Union are the company’s position. The Statement of Classification is issued by NF Technical Products Inc., and the Statement of Regulatory Status by C-POLAR Technologies, Inc. A warranty, manual, statement, order confirmation, or other document issued only by a manufacturer, seller, distributor, or other third party does not bind C-POLAR. Nothing on the Site authorizes anyone to manufacture, integrate, market, resell, or describe a product as C-POLAR-enabled. Nothing authorizes anyone to describe itself as a C-POLAR partner. Written permission is required. “A notice to C-POLAR must be sent to [email protected] with the subject “Legal Notice” and by a tracked delivery method to C-POLAR Technologies, Inc., c/o C-POLAR Innovations, Inc., 889 Harbourside Drive, North Vancouver, BC V7P 3S1, Canada.”
