My Glass Projects (MGP) is granted non-exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute products incorporating ClearVue’s advanced photovoltaic glazing technology into the United Kingdom (UK) market, and exclusive rights to combine its heated glass technology with ClearVue technology to create self-powered heated glass.
MGP are specialist glass producers with decades of experience delivering quality products for bespoke and challenging projects, including the One World Trade Centre and the Ministry of Defence Building in Islamabad through to the Hopewell Shopping Centre in Hong Kong.
MGP were selected to provide heated glass for the undercroft of the Lincoln Memorial to control external condensation, with ~300 m2 of heated glass manufactured in MGP’s London factory and shipped to the US.
ClearVue Global CEO Martin Deil said the partnership represents a significant opportunity for ClearVue to expand into new markets and introduce innovative technology to a wider audience, including a new ‘heated glass’ product with valuable applications in cold climates as well as tropical climates to control external condensation.
“We are excited our first partnership in the UK is with leading glazing specialist, My Glass Projects, who we have worked with for the past two years on trial projects,” Deil said.
“Combining My Glass Projects’ heated glass technology with our solar glazing solution has created another commercially viable smart façade solution that takes autonomous glazing systems to the next level.”
Deil said MGP has also helped collaboration with eLstar Dynamics to produce a combined demonstrator prototype that incorporates ClearVue’s Solar Vision Glass product with eLstar’s latest version of its electrophoretic dynamic glazing technology.
“We look forward to working with My Glass Projects in the UK and surrounds on heated glass applications and opportunities globally,” Deil said.
MGP Founder and Managing Director Sunil Sharda said this partnership is an important milestone for the company, allowing it to leverage expertise in heated glazing technology with ClearVue’s cutting-edge solar photovoltaic solutions.
“The fact that ClearVue’s Solar Façade is designed to integrate with standard building curtain wall and framing systems means we will be able to use the ClearVue Solar Vision Glass, Solar Cladding, and Solar Spandrel solutions for both new build and retrofit projects,” Sharda said.
“At My Glass Projects, we have always been focused on advanced glass solutions. The substantial impact ClearVue can have on offsetting the carbon footprint of commercial buildings is one of the things that we are most inspired by, and we are looking forward to implementing the façade solutions in upcoming projects.”
This Licence Agreement builds on a Collaboration Agreement between ClearVue and My Glass Projects signed in August 2022, which laid the foundation for joint development activities and initial testing of the combined technologies.
