Today, ~70% of all buildings have energy-inefficient facades with obsolete single-pane or poor-performing double-pane windows — responsible for up to 40% of energy loss in buildings, the world’s largest energy-consuming and carbon-emitting sector. Traditional upgrades require full or partial replacement and months of disruption, making them cost-prohibitive as an energy conservation measure.

INOVUES developed non-invasive retrofit solutions that cut facade and window upgrade costs by up to 90%, delivering up to 10x faster payback compared to replacements. Our patented glazing retrofit systems enable integration of the latest energy-saving and smart glass technologies into building facades and windows — without removing, replacing, drilling, or altering any existing components.

INOVUES’ award-winning retrofit systems have been installed in commercial buildings spanning over 6 million square feet across the US — most notably demonstrating a 10x improvement in window energy efficiency at ConEdison’s headquarters in NYC, and earning recognition from the U.S. Department of Energy. Our customers include leading commercial and institutional building owners and Fortune 500 companies, and we are backed by notable investors including global building technology leader Saint-Gobain.

INOVUES’ patented IGR technology was featured in Bill Gates’ Breakthrough Energy Climate Action Playbook, and in 2024, INOVUES was recognized by TIME and Statista as one of America’s Top Greentech Companies — one of just 14 companies in the Built Environment Sector, and the only one specializing in building envelope technologies.
