Start About Technology News Investors & Partners Careers Contact Investors and Partners Investment and partnership for the future Since the greatest savings in energy costs, as well as increased workplace productivity, will come from architectural glass used in commercial and residential buildings, our product and manufacturing strategies are based on that primary application, forming strategic alliances with major actors in the window, facade and construction industries. ChromoGenics enjoys a unique position in electrochromic windows, as we are the only company working with electrochromic plastic foil produced on rolls, rather than flat glass solutions. ConverLight™ allows us to split the manufacturing process into parts, enabling scalability of our business model, opening up a great many potential applications, and increasing the degree of IP protection of strategic materials and processes. The main shareholders are K-Svets Venture AB and New Energy Solutions II K/S. The Swedish Energy Agency has granted ChromoGenics a conditional loan of € 7.4 million for the establishment of a reference production plant.

The 3000 sqm production facility includes climate-stabilized cleanroom facilities, production lines for ConverLight™ glass laminates, testing facilities and a center for high-tech smart materials. Distinguished guests included Erik Brandsma, Director General of the Swedish Energy Agency, who formally inaugurated the plant, and Professor Claes-Göran Granqvist, one of the founders of ChromoGenics, who is the pioneer behind much of the research on dynamic glass. In his remarks to the audience, CEO Thomas Almesjö stressed the significance of the event: “Our new plant, based on nanomaterials research from Uppsala University in Sweden, represents the start of a whole new industry for sustainable glass solutions.” Production is now beginning in the plant to fulfill orders for Scandinavian architectural projects, and deliveries will take place during 2016. These building projects represent only a small part of the potential global demand real estate and construction companies as well as other players within the glass industry. ConverLight™ is a flexible, dynamic glass solution providing effective solar protection for increased indoor comfort and energy efficiency. The windows adapt automatically or manually to daylight and solar radiation, without any external equipment interfering with the view or changing the esthetic appearance of the building façade. ChromoGenics’ unique, proprietary electrochromic technology controls optical properties, shifting transparency between lighter or darker. Energy savings come from reduced needs for air conditioning, since the surplus solar radiation can be reduced up to 90% by dynamically shading the glass. It contributes to fulfilling the requirements of environmental building certifications, such as LEED and BREEAM. 2016-05-25 Press release: ChromoGenics recognized as Nanotechnology Company of the Year for its ConverLight™ dynamic glass In front of an audience of industrial companies, researchers, policy makers, members of parliament and venture capitalists, ChromoGenics received the Nanotechnology Company of the Year Award from SwedNanoTech, Sweden’s first umbrella organization for its nanotechnology industry. The award took place on Friday, May 20 at Nano Forum 2016, the fifth edition of Sweden’s largest conference on nanotechnology, advanced materials, and business opportunities, held at the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA). The award was based on the firms’ nanotech content, customers & sales, business plan, finances and scalability. The jury’s decision cited the following in granting the award to ChromoGenics: “The ability to control a window’s transparency is an excellent example of application of nanotechnology as a means for energy saving and better indoor climate. With a clear customer focus and strong IP strategy, ChromoGenics will introduce a paradigm shift to a traditional industry.” Thomas Almesjö, CEO of ChromoGenics, stressed the importance of providing the right conditions to top-level Swedish academic research for global commercialization: “ChromoGenics, based on leading research at the Ångström Laboratory at the University of Uppsala, is now taking its technology to the next phase, industrial production and commercialization. Meeting worldwide demand for dynamic glass is not just about perfecting the right technology, but also developing the right business model to take advantage of technical advances. At ChromoGenics we are now launching our ConverLight™ product in a way that takes advantage of existing supply chains and makes them more efficient.” ConverLight is a flexible, dynamic glass solution providing effective solar protection for increased indoor comfort and energy efficiency.
