Solutions for a better tomorrow

What if there
is a better
way?

We never stopped asking why.

Big problems,
surprisingly
simple answers

Higher, faster, further has never interested us. Simpler, more effective and more affordable does. Most of what we develop begins by questioning a solution everyone else treats as settled.

That is also why we publish where each development actually stands. A theory is called a theory. A prototype is called a prototype. Nothing on this site is described as further along than it is.

Nine innovations

Investigated

secureAIR

Respiratory protection that actively treats the air.

secureAIR is a wearable respiratory protection system with a transparent mouth-and-nose shield. Integrated micro-fans guide the breathing air through a compact UV-C LED unit, with the aim of inactivating viruses and bacteria directly in the air stream. The face stays visible, and breathing and speech are meant to stay as unhindered as possible.

Prototype

Flat Rotor

The wind turbine turned 90 degrees.

The Flat Rotor works horizontally instead of high on a tower. It does not need to be turned into the wind, it produces far lower tilting and bending loads, and it can be deployed modularly on roofs, industrial sites, farmland or container platforms. Small prototypes are in trial operation.

Tested

Tube-Body Turbine

Hydropower without slowing the water down.

The tube-body turbine guides flowing water through a spiral, rotating tube body. Instead of braking the flow head-on, it uses the forces created by continuously deflecting the water mass. A larger prototype has been tested and measured in the river Elbe.

Theory

Water Desalination

Fresh water, without forcing it out of the sea.

Established desalination relies on high pressure or a great deal of heat. TECLOW is pursuing a separation principle intended to work with far less of both. The principle is worked out theoretically; no prototype has been built.

Theory

ZeroTerm

Insulation you can switch.

Conventional insulation only slows heat down. ZeroTerm investigates active isolation, deliberately controlling where and when heat passes through a building element. The principle is worked out theoretically; the first prototype is still to come.

Theory

Innovative Propulsion

Flight without constantly throwing mass backwards.

Everything that flies today accelerates mass backwards. TECLOW is working on a propulsion model built on a different starting point — for drones, aircraft and potentially rockets. Vision and theoretical model; no demonstrator, no proof.

Theory

Heat Pump 4.0

One thermal stage drives the next.

A two-stage concept: in stage 1 several vortex tubes produce heat in the range of roughly 60–80 °C, which drives an absorption heat pump in stage 2. COP 20 is TECLOW's target for the combined system — a development goal, not a measured or certified result.

Research

AI 2.0

An AI that deliberately develops no consciousness of its own.

Instead of machine consciousness, TECLOW explores two paths: making human consciousness temporarily available as an interface, and expanding agents into changing councils modelled from documented knowledge about thinkers and specialists. A research hypothesis, not an achieved state.

Concept / prototype in preparation

Shielding Generator

Electricity from a switched magnetic field.

The shielding generator explores an unusual route to induction: the decisive relative movement comes not from the magnet or the coil, but from a rotating magnetic shield with a narrow slot. It periodically releases the flux of a permanent magnet — like a camera shutter — and so creates rapid flux changes in the surrounding coils.

Collaboration

Good ideas need
people who back them
early

Industry, research institutions, clinics and strategic partners: there is room to accompany these developments while they are still being proven.
