Mitrex Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) redefines what's possible in solar architecture. By combining advanced photovoltaic technology with meticulous design collaboration, Mitrex transforms architectural visions into practical, sustainable realities. Through a structured and collaborative Design Assist process, Mitrex partners with architects to achieve high-performance facade solutions that are both architecturally expressive and energy-efficient, embodying true energy-generating architecture.
Mitrex empowers architects to push creative boundaries while achieving practicaloutcomes:
Co-design BIPV systems tailored to your vision, from color to form.
Achieve LEED and net-zero goals with energy-generating facades.
Structured prototyping and testing ensure constructibility and compliance.
Mitrex’s comprehensive Design Assist approach engages stakeholders from the earliest stages to ensure seamless integration and optimal outcomes:
This methodical approach significantly reduces project risks and ensures each building envelope system meets its intended design and performance objectives.
The University of Toronto Scarborough’s Health Sciences Complex showcases Mitrex’s Design Assist collaboration with architects MVRDV and Diamond Schmitt. Through meticulous system optimization, Mitrex delivered a vibrant mosaic solar facade, balancing energy efficiency with precise aesthetic goals, generating over 300,000 kWh annually.
Through structured Design Assist, Mitrex successfully integrated SolaRail™ solar railings into a Toronto residential retrofit. Collaborative planning and design simplified installation processes, minimizing disruption and maximizing aesthetic and functional integration, exemplifying sustainable architecture.
At St. Mary’s University, Mitrex’s Design Assist process enabled close collaboration with architects to integrate a distinct seafoam green BIPV facade. Performance testing and prototyping ensured that aesthetic expectations and sustainability targets were met, demonstrating Mitrex’s strength in tailored architectural solar solutions.
Mitrex’s Design Assist service bridges the gap between creative vision and practical execution, delivering sustainable and visually impactful building solutions. Through a structured, collaborative approach, Mitrex empowers project stakeholders to achieve ambitious sustainability and architectural goals.
As sustainable architecture evolves, Mitrex is at the forefront, pushing the boundaries of energy-generating design. Partner with us to create buildings that inspire today and power tomorrow.
