Andluca announced that it has secured a SAFE investment from an undisclosed strategic investor. The investment will support Andluca’s commercial scale-up, provide momentum for its upcoming Series A financing, and advance a strategic collaboration between the parties.
Mavka Capital is serving as exclusive financial advisor to Andluca, a developer of intelligent glass and advanced materials technologies, on its Series A capital raise.
The undisclosed strategic investor has global operations, relevant industry expertise, access to global glass manufacturing infrastructure, and established distribution networks.
Andluca said the investment gives the company a path toward OEM-scale production and established channels into commercial glazing and residential window markets.
The partnership is expected to help Andluca accelerate product adoption with glass fabricators, window and door manufacturers, homebuilders, and other channel partners.
Andluca’s Innovio Glass platform is designed to turn windows into intelligent and connected surfaces by combining electricity-producing glass, sensing, and embedded AI.
The company’s initial focus is the global architectural glass and built environment market, which it estimates at $365 billion.
Andluca also sees potential expansion opportunities across transportation, AR/VR eyewear, anti-counterfeiting, and other markets.
Headquartered in Rochester, New York, Andluca develops advanced UV-active materials and intelligent glass systems for the built environment, transportation, consumer electronics, and other materials-enabled markets.
The company is a Princeton University spin-out. Its proprietary materials platform enables optical and electronic functionality across glass, coatings, and other surfaces.
Andluca’s first commercial products, SafeFlight UV and Innovio Glass, are built on this platform and use materials designed to be heavy-metal-free, PFAS-free, durable, and cost-effective to manufacture at scale.
