SolCold

SolCold is a climate technology company that develops advanced, patented nano-technological coatings designed for passive cooling. Founded in 2016 and based in Israel, the company's proprietary film-like technology operates by integrating three primary mechanisms: reflecting 98.5% of solar radiation, converting absorbed heat into higher-frequency photons, and releasing that energy back into the atmosphere through radiative cooling. This process enables surfaces to stay cool under direct sunlight without the need for fuel, electricity, or emissions, providing a sustainable alternative to conventional cooling systems.

The technology is applicable to a wide range of surfaces, including commercial buildings, containers, silos, electronics, cars, and textiles. By reducing internal temperatures, SolCold's solutions help customers lower air-conditioning energy consumption by 5% to 40% and significantly decrease greenhouse gas emissions. These coatings are particularly effective during extreme heat, offering benefits such as prolonging the lifespan of temperature-sensitive goods and electronics, maintaining equipment productivity during heat waves, and delivering cost savings through improved energy efficiency. The company works with various industries to deploy these coatings, demonstrating significant real-world temperature reductions in field studies.
