ProductTypes
1. Direct integration
The PV Cells are encapsulated directly
onto the pre-painted metal or
membrane roofing component in the
factory to create a combined PV
roofing system that can be installed in
the same way as a conventional roof.
This is a specification product and sold
with associated system warranty.
2. Factory based attachment
PV Cells are encapsulated directly onto
a plastic backing sheet with adhesive
for supply to metal or membrane
roofing component manufacturers
(factory installation) or installers (field
application). This is a specification
product and sold with associated
system warranty.

3. Retro fit – on site
PV cells are encapsulated directly onto
a plastic backing sheet, but the
component manufacturer or installer
uses their own adhesive or other
means of attaching the module to the
roof. Modules sold openly with limited
warranty.
