e-Chromic Technologies specializes in reflective electrochromic thin film technology designed for retrofitting existing windows in both commercial and residential buildings. This innovative thin film changes from transparent to diffuse reflective when activated, effectively controlling light and solar heat transmission. Unlike other smart window solutions that require complete replacement of windows, e-Chromic's product can be installed from inside, making it a cost-effective alternative. According to energy models from the Department of Energy, this film is 43% more efficient than traditional absorptive technologies and is priced at less than half the cost of competing smart window options. The product can significantly reduce air conditioning expenses and associated carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 35%. It operates wirelessly and offers user-controlled settings, allowing for maximum natural light when switched off and preventing around 90% of solar heating when fully reflective. Future developments are expected to introduce an additional mode that will maintain transparency while rejecting infrared heat.
