What we actually do

We turn the building itself into something that generates energy.

A lot of solar glass never leaves the slide deck. We work on the parts that let architects, developers and owners actually say yes: real laminated safety glass, proper certification, honest energy numbers, façade detailing and someone who stands behind the install.

How we work

Built for the people who have to sign off on it.

Built for the people who have to sign off on it.

01 · Named modules with a paper trail you can follow

02 · Aligned with IEC, TÜV, VDE and DIN

03 · One team from the first sketch to handover

No vapourware

Real glass, real paperwork.

Working laminated modules with certificates behind the numbers — not renders waiting on a breakthrough that may never come.

Low risk

The safe, sensible choice.

Performance figures, product warranties, structural logic and compliance wording your project team can actually use.

The real thing

Built in, not bolted on.

Specified as the façade, skylight, roof or greenhouse skin — at real project scale, with real detail.

One team

You always know who owns it.

Design, engineering, certification and installation stay in the same hands, from first sketch to handover.

Where it fits

A solar material for buildings people take seriously.

Designed around the building, not around the panel.

Façades

Energy-generating glass for premium commercial exteriors.

Roofs & skylights

Glass for the places where light, structure and energy all have to work together.

Solar greenhouses

Glazing that balances growing light, climate control and electrical yield.

Certification

IEC 61215 / 61730 alignment, structural reasoning and the project documentation to back it.

Energy modelling

Early feasibility, orientation studies and fixed-price conversations.

Installation

One connected team through production, site coordination and handover.

What it’s like to work with us

Four steps. No theatre, no consultants who vanish.

Within a few days you’ll know whether we belong in the project.

01

A real conversation

The building, its orientation, structure, ambition and constraints. No pitch deck needed.

02

Drawings & feasibility

We read your elevations, structure and rough schedule, then tell you honestly where the glass makes sense.

03

Engineering & quote

Energy modelling, structural reasoning and a fixed quote — not a vague range.

04

Build & handover

We produce, certify, install and hand over with all the paperwork. The same people stay accountable throughout.

Have a look around

Where most first conversations start.

01

The glass

How perovskite solar glass works, what it’s made of, and why we’d pick it.

02

Where it goes

Façades, head offices, industrial roofs, skylights and solar greenhouses.

03

Who you deal with

The people behind the advice, the details, the install and the handover.
