How does it work?
Our MicroStructure
Solar shading that lives inside the glass. No louvres, no blinds, no limits on what your building can look like.
The Benefits of MicroShade®
Less Heat, More Comfort
Our product reduces the amount of heat the sun lets in, thereby reducing the need for cooling and the risk of drafts, and providing a more stable, comfortable room environment.
Plenty of Natural Daylight
We help ensure the best possible daylight conditions year-round. By blocking high-angle summer sun while allowing low-angle winter light to pass through freely, we ensure bright, comfortable interiors in every season.
Shading With Views
Our angular pattern allows you to look out of your window while still providing protection from the sun’s heat. With the same lifetime as a regular glazing unit.
Hiding in plain sight
No moving parts. Just Physics.
MicroShade® is an ultra-thin, microstructured film that’s
virtually invisible to the naked eye. Laminated onto the
inner face of the outer pane within a standard insulating
glass unit, it’s protected from the weather and requires no
control units, no configuration, and no maintenance.
MicroShade® features a precision honeycomb geometry.
The arched profile adds robustness, while the honeycomb
pattern provides strength in a very thin layer. Its performance is defined by the aspect ratio, the height of the
micro lamellas relative to the spacing between them,
which determines how much incoming light and solar
energy is reflected at different sun angles
Only Good Vibes Gets a pass
Not a glass product.
A shading solution.
Although MicroShade® is integrated into the glazing unit,
it should be viewed not as a glass product, but as a solar
shading solution. Its performance is angle-dependent,
meaning it changes with the sun’s position.
In summer, when the sun is high, the microstructure
can deliver up to 100% beam shading while maintaining
natural daylight, a clear view out, and visual comfort. In
winter, when the sun is low, it allows around 35% solar
transmittance, helping capture useful heat and reduce
heating demand.
This passive, automatic response to the sun’s angle is
what sets MicroShade® apart from conventional shading
solutions.
Simple by design.
The microstructure does one thing exceptionally well. Watch how the geometry works with the sun to deliver shade in summer and warmth in winter, with nothing to adjust and nothing to maintain.
Long term performance
The Benchmark for Solar Shading
No other shading solution delivers this combination of thermal control, natural daylight, and unobstructed views. Integrated into the glazing itself, it performs from day one and continues to do so for the lifetime of the pane.
Project Case
Where Modern Performance
Meets Historic Surroundings
Panoramic canal views, a historic neighbourhood and south-facing facades. The brief demanded unobstructed views, a comfortable indoor climate and a building expression that respected its surroundings. All three at once.
Our Project Cases
Skovlunde Skole
A former swimming hall transformed into a modern assembly space for students, staff and the local community. At the heart of it, a south-facing facade where light, views and comfort had to coexist.
Traditional blinds and screens require mechanical systems, power supplies, maintenance contracts and regular replacement. They block the view when closed and do nothing when open.
MicroShade® is integrated directly into the glazing unit. Passive, permanent and automatic, it works with the angle of the sun delivering shade in summer and allowing warmth through in winter. No moving parts. No intervention required.
No. Visible light transmission of 50-60% ensures interiors remain genuinely bright throughout the year. Unlike solar control glass, the microstructure blocks high-angle solar heat while allowing diffuse daylight to pass through freely.
Colour rendering above Ra 95 means natural light inside the building stays true to its source.
Yes. The product integrates into standard double or triple glazed units and is suitable for both new construction and retrofit projects. No mechanical systems, no wiring and no structural modifications are required.
There is no impact on the building exterior and no additional trades are needed beyond the glazing contractor already on the project.
The microstructure film sits protected inside the glazing cavity and is almost imperceptible to the naked eye, though the join between sheets is visible on close inspection. From the outside the facade looks clean and as designed.
From the inside the view out remains clear and unobstructed at all times. No tint, no visible pattern and no reduction in the quality of the outlook.
