About Isoclima
Founded in 1977 and headquartered in Este, Italy, Isoclima has grown from a specialist glass processor into a multinational transparent-systems group. It operates production sites in Europe and the United States and has been backed by Stirling Square Capital Partners since 2017.
The company engineers glazing as a functional subsystem rather than selling undifferentiated glass. Its products combine laminates, coatings, electrical heating, electromagnetic shielding, optical performance and ballistic or environmental protection for demanding platforms. Vertical Aerospace selected Isoclima as the strategic transparency partner for Valo, covering the canopy and other glazing. The contract anchors Isoclima’s Korthos relevance in a named electric-aircraft programme while its broader transport and security portfolio provides qualification and manufacturing context.
