Whether you’re dealing with commercial or residential settings, Modular integrates seamlessly with any of our foundation options, optimising each installation to specific site conditions.
Flexible Panel Configuration
Modular is available in multiple configurations, such as 1-in-Portrait and 2-in-Portrait, with three tilt angle options to enhance solar capture. Each mounting system complies with international quality standards and is adaptable to various ground conditions, making Modular a comprehensive solution for your solar energy needs.
Cost-Effective & Risk-Reducing Features
The Modular mounting system is designed to reduce errors and maximise productivity, cutting down on the time and resources needed on-site. These features help decrease labour costs and enhance overall efficiency. Safety is also a priority, with Modular’s design minimising common installation risks and promoting safer work environments.
Diverse Foundation Options
Our broad selection of foundation options ensures that Modular systems can be installed on virtually any terrain. From ground anchors in challenging conditions to ballasted systems where minimal ground disturbance is necessary, Modular provides stable and durable foundations for every solar project.
Technical data
Modular is held in stock for rapid distribution and can utilise 8 different foundation options, ensuring that almost no terrain is off limits. The modular design allows for the tables to be built in bays of 2 or 3 panels wide and is suitable for ground up to a maximum slope of approximately 5°.
