Problem
Existing windows often lack sufficient insulation, leading to significant energy loss and increased heating and cooling costs for homeowners. This inefficiency contributes to higher carbon emissions and a reliance on energy-intensive climate control systems.
Solution
AeroShield manufactures transparent silica aerogel inserts designed for integration into windows, substantially improving their energy efficiency. These aerogel inserts can enhance window energy performance by up to 65%, resulting in considerable reductions in heating and cooling expenses. By partnering with insulated-glass manufacturers, AeroShield facilitates the incorporation of its patented material into new windows, offering homeowners superior thermal comfort and contributing to lower carbon emissions. The technology involves applying the silica aerogels as a coating to the inner glass of windows and doors.
