Parans products were introduced in 2003, marking the beginning of a journey to harness fiber optic sunlight for indoor spaces. The first version of Parans’ patented technology, the Parans solar lighting system, was commercialized in 2004. Developed through extensive R&D in collaboration with Chalmers Technical University in Gothenburg, Sweden, this innovation demonstrated the transformative potential of fiber optic daylight solutions.

The founders of Parans were driven by a passion for innovation and a vision of how technology could improve the world by drawing inspiration from nature. Like a sunflower following the sun throughout the day, maximizing sunlight for growth, the Parans solar lighting system was designed to optimize sunlight collecting and distribution. This groundbreaking technology brought natural light deep into buildings, enriching environments such as classrooms and offices. By embracing the principles of daylight harvesting, Parans sought to improve indoor spaces and promote a healthier, more sustainable way of living.
