Heliatek’s vision is to ensure that by 2030 that they will enable every building to be 100% energy neutral and smart with access to an independent supply of green electricity. They are now bringing that vision to reality with the roll-to-roll vacuum production of organic solar films on a mass-scale, with rolls that are 1.3m wide and 2.6km long.

Solivus® has filed patents for designs using this innovative, solar fabric from Heliatek through working with Red Dot award-winning engineers, Cambridge Design Partnership.

It is clean as it uses no rare materials, requires minimal heat to manufacture, is fully recyclable and easily disposed of at end-of-life.
