Futurechromes is a technology company founded in 2014 by Claudio Roscini and is a spin-off from the Catalan Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (ICN2). The company develops and commercializes patented, nanotechnology-based photochromic materials characterized by high stability and a rapid response time. These materials are designed for integration into various products such as smart windows, ophthalmic lenses, and sportswear to automatically regulate light and enhance energy efficiency, safety, and comfort.
The core technology involves liquid-filled nanocapsules that allow light-sensitive dyes to change color states much faster than conventional materials on the market. This process enables surfaces to automatically adjust to ambient light, reducing glare and energy consumption in buildings or providing adaptive eyewear. The company's technology is protected by patents and proprietary know-how.
Futurechromes' business model is centered on technology licensing to manufacturers and product makers. It also engages in joint development projects, provides custom formulations, and offers services to adapt its technology to specific manufacturing requirements and products like flexible polymeric films. The company has received funding through grants from the European Union and the EIC Fund.
