HALIO for Commercial Campuses

Many us of spend a third of our lives in commercial buildings. Those buildings, are homes to the innovations, inspirations, and hard work that drive the growth in our economies and changes in our society.

But these same buildings are also accountable for 39% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions and health and wellness challenges. Smart glass facades improve our environment – both indoors and out – fundamentally and forever altering the relationship we have with commercial buildings.

Tenants want amenities that matter, and the most desired amenity is natural light and views. Developers want a higher NOI and better, long term tenants. Architects need a net zero building component that delivers performance without compromising design.

HALIO’s forward-ready electrochromic (EC) glass technology and Viracon PLUS™ Smart Glass powered by HALIO® is the world’s most advanced, elegant, and highest performing dynamic facade solution driving the smart building revolution for the next century.
