1.16.2025
WALTHAM, Mass. -- AeroShield Materials, an MIT spin out developing cutting-edge, energy-efficient products for the built environment, has taken a major step forward in its mission to commercialize the manufacturing of aerogel-insulated glass to improve the thermal properties of residential windows and doors. This month, the company installed and commissioned a 25-ton, 10-foot-long critical point dryer at its recently christened manufacturing facility in Waltham, MA. This installation makes AeroShield one of only a handful of companies worldwide to own and operate a dryer of such size and enables AeroShield to produce the first aerogel-insulated glass for entry and patio doors.
