What is the Problem?
In the US, 50% residential energy consumption are spent in heating and cooling every, which translates to roughly 31% of our total GHG emission, and $120 billion extra energy cost for the entire country. We used so much energy because our buildings are dominated by inexpensive but low R-value/inch insulations.
Our Mission

What is the Problem?
We’re tackling this problem head-on — by introducing AERO-D, a cost-effective, high R-value, fire-resistant polymer aerogel composites. Manufactured by the cheaper ambient pressure dried method, AERO-D offers a next-generation solution that serves not just buildings but anywhere where thermal insulation matters.
What Sets Us Apart

We understand how complex it can be to change building codes or redesign systems. That’s why AERO-D is engineered to integrate seamlessly with standard products and existing workflows used for conventional insulation materials.
All About Cost Saving
A Small Change, A Big Drop
A Small Change, A Big Drop
AERO-D can save thousands of dollars by reducing the amount of fuel used to heat and cool the building. And the savings don’t stop there—they continue to accumulate over time.

Even in a simple 1-inch upgrade scenario, AERO-D delivers larger emission reductions than every common insulation material commonly in the market. The more homes and buildings adopt it, the larger the impact.
The Science Behind
What is aerogel?
Aerogels are lightweight and highly porous solids. Filled with 99% air yet tougher than steel, aerogel is the best insulation material in the world. Aerogel can be made from inorganic and organic raw materials like silica, plastics, cellulose and so on. Aerogel was invented by American scientist and chemical engineer Samuel Kistler in 1931. This fascinating material continues to attract scientist to date, with new aerogels-based materials being invented every year.
Why not aerogel?
Silica aerogel, the most well-known member of the aerogel family, has an impressive R-value/inch of 7.2 - 8.5. Despite that, you rarely see them in homes and buildings - because it comes with a $40-60 per square foot price tag. This price results from the expensive raw ingredient and the use of the supercritical drying (SCD) method, a necessary process to preserve the porous structure of silica aerogel and hence its good R-value. Supercritical drying works by replacing the solvent in the silica wet gel with liquid carbon dioxide (CO2) and then removing it at very high pressure (>1072 psi).
Plus silica aerogel is extremely dusty - you do not want to touch it with your bare hand!
What is AERO-D?
AERO-D is an organic aerogel composite made from inexpensive petroleum by-product by the ambient pressure drying (APD) method, the ultimate manufacturing breakthrough to bring the cost of aerogel down by eliminating the expensive and dangerous SCD process entirely. The APD method gives AERO-D superior toughness and strength and minimal dustiness, making them more suitable in structural component applications such as walls and roofs.
