Colored solar panels of high efficiency and durability for Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) installations
01.
Identification
Kromatix specializes in the design of innovative building materials in the form of colored solar facades. Combining aesthetics and performance, Kromatix aims to optimize the capture of solar energy to create attractive and elegant buildings. This approach allows renewable energy to be generated directly at the point of consumption, reducing transmission losses and promoting a sustainable future. Kromatix's major innovation is its unique colored glass processing for photovoltaic (PV) panels. Unlike traditional coloring methods such as screen printing, painting, or the use of pigments, Kromatix uses atomic deposition to transform solar glass into tinted glass. This process gives Kromatix products remarkable durability and resistance to degradation caused by UV rays. Thanks to this innovative technology, Kromatix solar panels offer reduced efficiency losses and optimal performance, ensuring a sustainable and aesthetically pleasing energy solution for modern buildings.
