Natural light is essential to our emotional and physical wellness. It provides an array of benefits, from productivity to better sleep. At Halio®, our goal is to give people the ability to let the maximum amount of natural light into their work and living spaces while blocking unwanted heat, reducing glare, and protecting their valued possessions from sun damage.

A complete natural light management system comprised of Halio Smart Glass, the world’s most advanced electrochromic device that is integrated into insulated glass units; Halio System, the on-premise electronics that sense light changes and requests, changes tint levels, and connects the smart glass to the Cloud; Halio Cloud, the learning AI that monitors and controls the system; and Halio Spectrum Service, the 24x7 Customer Care, Warranty and Support service for installations. Collectively, this Halio Solution is responsive and intelligent, adapting to user’s preference and weather conditions in real-time to maximize natural light and energy savings while minimizing glare.

For occupants, the windows are a beautiful architectural element, with a natural clear state, tinting in less than 3 minutes to its darkest neutral gray shade while keeping the outdoor view. The fast, uniform transition can be interrupted at any stage via voice commands, apps or touchpads.

For developers and owners, Halio delivers a continuously perfect occupant experience, transforming natural light into a building amenity that delivers sustainability and wellness while maximizing interior space utilization.

For architects, Halio delivers both design flexibility to specify an IGU with desired coatings and compositions and the ability to increase window-to-wall ratio while meeting energy codes.

Halio is available both from Halio, Inc. and in Powered by Halio IGUs available through certified IGU fabricators.
