Together

to ensure science-based solutions
Founded by a team of dedicated biologists and material scientists it is our core value to work on the cutting edge of science with evidence-based approaches. We are committed to gather new insights for the entire field through a variety of studies to ensure a high level of quality for our customers and our main goal to make bird-window collisions a thing of the past. In three peer-reviewed studies, we were able to achieve excellent results and we are working on more.

As there is a lack of standards in the assessment of bird protection measures, determining the effectiveness of products under real world conditions is challenging. Therefore, BirdShades is particularly committed to work on the forefront of establishing research-based industry standards. Nevertheless, BirdShades advocates for the establishment and application of evidence-based certifications and standards for real-world applications.

FAQ

The three studies mentioned above are peer-reviewed. This means they were reviewed and approved by independent experts who are not part of the research team. This ensures that the results of the study were correctly interpreted and that the research design aligns with the research question and scientific standards

Our bird protection window film is active in the UVA-range, which is present in daylight. Colors in this wavelength are imperceptible to humans but visible to birds. Thus, the film remains invisible to us. BirdShades makes it possible to protect birds without compromising aesthetics.

We place a high value on a realistic experimental setup and to meet scientific standards. We investigate how birds behave in their natural habitat and how they can be protected from collisions with windows. Some tests simulate a bird flying from an indoor space towards the outside, which is not the scenario under which BirdShades is deployed.
