Technology and Impact

The company’s glass-integrated solar shading technology enables architects, developers, and building owners to design facades that combine visual transparency, energy performance and sustainability in ways not previously possible.

By diverting heat and allowing natural light to pass through, MicroShade’s patented structure removes the need for external shading solutions while reducing the dependency on artificial cooling, offering a five-fold improvement in light-to-energy ratio compared to alternative solutions, making MicroShade’s technology entirely unique and without compromise.

01
Impact factor
Buildings are responsible for more than 30% of energy-related emissions within the European Union, with heating and cooling accounting for around 25% of global CO₂ emissions.

By reducing heat build-up from the sun, MicroShade significantly reduces the need for airconditioning, lowering the carbon footprint overall.

Microshade also has certified low-carb production of around 14.69 kg CO2-eq/m2.
