Sustainable Responsive Shading System

ended

Airshade has developed and patented a self-sustaining and eco-friendly responsive shading system constructed from sustainable materials, that follows the idea of thermo-sensitivity to solar exposure and requires only air pressure to operate. Responsive solar shading systems have been emerging for the past few decades, but they are all controlled by electricity, cables and motors. Airshade is improving on the current state of the art through a responsive solar shading system which reduces costs, in terms of production, installation and maintenance, carbon footprint, as it is built from sustainable materials, and energy consumption used for residential heating and cooling, all while requiring no electricity to operate. Airshade is addressing the needs of a significant global market consisting of professionals involved in the construction industry, such as architects, engineers, planners, builders and building consultants, as well as billions of end-users - people who live and work in buildings. There are hundreds of thousands of architects, builders and engineers/consultants in the EU only, while end- user are essentially all house owners, which means millions in the EU and billions globally. Professionals in the construction industry need to achieve today’s required sustainability standards by applying efficient building products and systems, while end-users can benefit from a cost-efficient responsive shading system. To this very large pool of potential customers, Airshade offers an innovative responsive shading system which significantly improves upon current solutions, delivering the same benefits as the most advanced state of the art, but without all the inconveniences and at a very competitive price. Created by a diverse, young and most importantly, environmentally conscious team, Airshade is a pioneering, award-winning concept.Working in the most resource-consuming industry on the planet, Airshade considers sustainability as default rather than an exception.
