We’ve always believed that innovation should serve to promote a smarter, more sustainable purpose. Gauzy is proud to announce our inclusion in WIPO GREEN, a platform led by a specialized branch of the United Nations, the World Intellectual Property Organization, that promotes environmentally friendly technologies. Here’s what that means for us, and for the future of sustainable building design.
What is WIPO GREEN and Why It Matters
WIPO GREEN is a global platform that connects green technology providers with those working to address climate and environmental challenges. With buildings accounting for nearly 40 percent of global energy use, solutions like smart glass can help reduce emissions while increasing efficiency.
Gauzy is now part of this global network, joining others who are committed to bringing meaningful, scalable climate solutions to market.
Being listed in the WIPO GREEN database increases visibility and potential collaborations with cities, developers, and innovators looking for ways to create a cleaner, more sustainable built environment. It also validates the impact of our smart glass in energy conservation and natural light optimization – both key factors in lowering the carbon footprint of modern buildings.

How Gauzy Smart Glass Supports Sustainability
Gauzy’s smart glass technologies transform static windows into intelligent surfaces that adapt in real-time. The glass can block up to 99% of incoming light, regulate indoor temperature, and allow for privacy or transparency at the flip of a switch or tap of an app.
Here’s how it helps sustainability and the circular economy:
- Energy Efficiency: Reduces HVAC and lighting energy consumption
- Natural Light Optimization: Enhances comfort and wellness without glare
- Reduced Material Waste: No need for blinds or shades
- Smart Building Integration: Syncs with automation systems for peak performance
- Low-Voltage Operation: Optimized for performance with low power consumption
- As new advancements emerge, smart glass windows—when paired with technologies like BIPV—have the potential to operate entirely on sustainable energy.
From reducing operational costs to helping buildings meet LEED and other green certification standards, Gauzy’s solution is practical and planet-friendly.
As cities commit to net-zero goals, adaptive technologies like smart glass will play an essential role in reshaping how we build and retrofit structures.
What This Means for the Future of Buildings
Inclusion in the WIPO GREEN database is more than recognition; it’s a signal that innovation and environmental stewardship must go hand in hand. As infrastructure faces pressure to become smarter and more sustainable, Gauzy offers both immediate and long-term value, continuing to provide its core smart glass technologies and focusing on green-tech integrations and developments such as Building Inegrated Photovoltaics (BIPV)
Gauzy’s smart glass technologies contribute to:
- Carbon Reduction: Lower building emissions from HVAC and lighting
- Healthier Indoor Environments: More natural light and thermal control
- Smart City Readiness: Data-driven, future-forward infrastructure
By enhancing environmental performance without sacrificing design or comfort, Gauzy helps cities and property owners align with evolving climate policies, tenant demands, and ESG goals.
We’re excited to help advance green building technologies alongside global partners through WIPO GREEN.
Smart buildings start with smarter materials. At Gauzy, we believe innovation must be sustainable to be meaningful. Our inclusion in WIPO GREEN is an exciting milestone that reinforces our dedication to climate-conscious design and scalable environmental solutions.
