To make sure that only products of the highest quality leave our plant, quality assurance begins with semi-finished materials and ends with packaged products. During production, each solar collector passes through a multi-stage quality assurance programme with strict monitoring and quality control. The same holds true for our production processes and technologies.
Why Solar Why Now?
Solar is one of the fastest growing ‘renewable’ technologies, and when you compare the amount of solar energy available during the year, with the remaining fossil fuel reserves the earth has to offer, it is easy to see why the uptake of solar thermal systems has been so rapid.
Following the initial investment solar is effectively a continuous source of free energy that can be put to use to provide hot water and space heating.
