Although it is not the easiest way to build a carport, we consistently use a roof pitch of 10°, as this allows the modules to self-clean through natural rain.

At shallower angles of inclination, there is a risk that dirt will stick to the edges and not be washed away, which can lead to yield losses and requires additional cleaning measures.

The roof surface is self-sealing and requires neither silicone nor liquid sealants. This allows the modules to be installed in any weather and eliminates joints that require maintenance.

Another difference to other insertion systems for framed modules lies in the production of the water-bearing layer at the module level.

This closes the gap between the modules and prevents the accumulation of dust, pollen and seeds, which provide a breeding ground for unwanted plants and lead to additional maintenance.

Thanks to the bifacial modules, electricity is also generated on the back of the module, which increases efficiency and leads to faster snow sliding in winter if no snow guard is present.

For the coating process, we use techniques that are also used in the automotive sector, thus ensuring long-lasting technical and visual durability.

This clearly distinguishes us from the predominantly galvanized steel constructions of our competitors.

Compared to other systems on the market, we use up to 50% less steel per kWp, primarily due to calculation and design principles derived from crane construction. These principles enable optimized material usage as well as stringent manufacturing processes and quality standards, in contrast to common practice, which attempts to compensate for site-specific environmental influences through increased material usage.

Thanks to the modular design, it is possible to reuse the carport even after dismantling, either in the same configuration or even in a different one.

This means, for example, that a 32m² carport can be converted into two 16m² carports at a different location.

Thanks to the special roof shape, it is possible to replace the photovoltaic modules with minimal effort at the end of their lifespan.

This sounds simple, but it is not so easy – as the format of the available modules has usually changed significantly.

Many carport manufacturers adapt the dimensions of their steel structures to the modules, which proves to be a risky approach, as after 10 to 20 years a change is only possible with extensive structural intervention.
