A Wroclaw-based company is conquering US. Nanomaterials will authenticate packaging
QNA Technology from Wrocław—one of three companies in the world and the only one in Europe developing blue quantum dots without heavy metals—is just beginning its cooperation with the American company Reborn Materials.
The agreement that has just been signed concerns the development, testing, and sale of QNA products designed to authenticate and verify hybrid plastic on the US market.
QNA Technology S.A. is a Wrocław-based technology company – a pioneer in the production of quantum dots that emit blue light, which are mainly used in the display industry. Now the company has a chance to succeed in a slightly different field. Its products will be used to authenticate and verify hybrid plastic in the US. This will be possible thanks to cooperation with the American company Reborn Material. The agreement on this matter was signed on January 22, 2026, in Los Angeles.
An opportunity for fruitful cooperation
According to Prof. Artur Podhorodecki, PhD, Eng., president of QNA Technology, the start of cooperation with Reborn Materials is one of the first results of work carried out since 2024 to assess the potential of areas other than the display industry.
Under the agreement, we will prepare a special UV ink formulation for our partner that will contain quantum dots. This technology is intended for the authentication and verification of hybrid plastics, initially mainly for disposable food packaging in agriculture.

QNA Technology ink will contain DeepBlue.dots – the company's first generation of quantum dots, which formed the basis for the development of PureBlue.dots, i.e., dots designed in response to the needs of modern display manufacturers.
The beginning of a beautiful story
In the first phase of the cooperation between the two companies, QNA Technology will prepare and conduct tests of UV ink containing DeepBlue.dots blue quantum dots. The agreement provides for a six-month period of mutual exclusivity in negotiations concerning the development and testing phase. This exclusivity does not restrict QNA in other applications of UV inks outside the US market.
If the test results are positive, negotiations are planned on the terms for starting production and supplying ink on a scale corresponding to Reborn's needs in serving its current and future customers in the disposable packaging segment. Both parties have declared their intention to negotiate a partnership agreement for strategic long-term technological and commercial cooperation.
Blue dots will confirm the origin of packaging
As explained by Maciej Adamczyk, member of the management board and CFO of QNA Technology, the company's blue dots will be one of the elements of the verification and authentication system for plastic packaging placed on the US market, which is subject to formal regulations. It will allow their origin to be confirmed in the event of an environmental compliance inspection.
We expect that the first test phase of our cooperation and the entire project prepared by Reborn, which everyone is looking forward to, will be completed in 2026. This will enable us to sign contracts for regular deliveries of UV ink, which will provide the company with repeatable revenues that will be noticeable in the income statement, as well as a partnership agreement for strategic cooperation.

Packaging designed with the environment in mind
Reborn Materials is an American company specializing in building infrastructure and innovative solutions for plastics used in the food industry and agriculture. The company currently operates in the hybrid plastics market, in the disposable packaging segment in the US, and plans to scale up its cooperation with existing customers and acquire new ones.
The packaging produced by Reborn Materials is designed with post-use in mind, and verifying the origin of the plastic not only helps manufacturers comply with environmental regulations, but also enables a shorter sustainable recovery process within the circular economy.
Our ambition is to fundamentally transform plastics into sustainable resources, contributing to the implementation of best practices in the circular economy and building a future where environmental care and innovation are harmoniously combined. We have created California's first full-cycle production platform for agriculture, which is based on five integrated pillars and strong partners.
