Smart building materials company ClearVue Technologies has secured up to $3 million in structured, non‑dilutive funding to complete critical certification programs and accelerate the commercialisation of its solar‑integrated glass technologies.
ClearVue’s product suite, which includes transparent solar vision glass, cladding, railings and skylights, has been designed to transform conventional building exteriors into energy-generating glass façades.
At the heart of the system are its integrated glazing units (IGUs) – clear, double-glazed glass panels that feature a specialised laminated interlayer sandwiched between the panes. This proprietary layer is embedded with nano- and microparticles that play a critical role in capturing solar energy.
When sunlight strikes the glass, the interlayer activates and absorbs ultraviolet and infrared light. That energy is then channelled towards thin photovoltaic strips positioned around the inner edges of the window, where it is converted into usable electricity.
‘This funding preserves and enhances long-term shareholder value.’

The company has entered into a deal with London-based structured finance provider RiverFort Global Opportunities to provide fresh capital, secured against ClearVue’s research and development tax credit for the 2026 financial year.
RiverFort specialises in tailored bridge and structured funding solutions for growth-focused companies seeking cash to fast-track milestone delivery within working capital cycles, without diluting their capital structures.
ClearVue’s new facility includes an initial $1 million advance, expected on or before 12 March, with a further $2 million available by mutual agreement, giving the company flexibility to draw capital in line with its development and key commercial progress markers.
ClearVue Technologies chief executive officer and managing director Douglas Hunt said: “This facility provides CPV with structured capital at a time when the Board views the Company as materially undervalued by the market. Importantly, it enables us to advance critical certification milestones, while protecting existing shareholders from unnecessary dilution at current market levels.”
RiverFort chief executive Gytis Martinkus said the facility reflected growing global demand for decarbonisation-focused building solutions, underpinned by ClearVue’s expanding market and patented product portfolio.
With the funding now secured, ClearVue appears well-positioned to keep pushing its solar glass technology through the final certification hurdles, while ramping up commercial deployment with global partners.
