The shift in societal, government and council attitudes with respect to acoustics and energy efficient housing has created a huge opportunity for Magnetite®. More and more councils are demanding acoustic and energy ratings for new construction, renovations and extensions. Magnetite® is at the forefront of the industry and has had its system thermally rated through the Window Energy Rating Scheme (WERS) and acoustically tested by the National Acoustics Laboratories in Chatswood, Sydney. The results show the same if not better results than many double glazed units. Magnetite® Window Covers are an excellent and cost effective way of surpassing specified government requirements.
Personal comfort is also becoming more and more of an issue both in a home and office environment, with noise and temperature being the two biggest concerns listed.
Magnetite® has a tremendous amount of opportunity in Australia. Noise and temperature are the two biggest attributes of the Magnetite® Window Covers surpassed by none in price and quality.
But that's not all! Magnetite® engineers are working on new innovative products that work with the existing system to offer a wide range of added benefits.

Magnetite is the original inside insulating magnetic window system.

Magnetite was invented over 20 years ago by energy physicist Kenneth Foster at the MIT Center for Innovation in Boston, Massachusetts.

It has been featured exclusively in the Energy Home at two World Fairs and has provided added comfort to thousands of private and public properties across Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States.

Operating in Australia since 1996, Magnetite has a number of franchised outlets across 4 states.

Our dedication to education, quality and affordability has proven a successful combination for continued Magnetite acceptance and expansion.
