Aerogels have remarkable physical properties
Developed by NASA, aerogels have always been known for being the most insulating materials ever created, for being super lightweight, and heat and fire resistant. While perfect for insulating critical space exploration equipment, the material had a blue hue that prevented use for everyday applications, including windows.
Then we began our aerogel innovation program.

Traditional aerogels lack the transparency required for use with vision glass.
The difference is clear

How It’s Made
AeroShield aerogel glass insulation is a solid material made up of 95% gas trapped inside pores that are so small they are invisible to the naked eye.
Our aerogel glass insulation is made into solid sheets large enough for use in standard-sized residential windows, doors, and skylights in an industrial-sized oven called a critical point dryer.
Our unique manufacturing process delivers the first of its kind: a solid, ultra-clear, super-insulating, and cost-effective aerogel sheet for use in windows, doors, and skylights, as well as other applications.
