SolaTrim
Expands Market Reach for PV Protective Barriers with Calgary-based
Value-added Distributor of Specialty Alternative Energy Products.
Sacramento,
CA, USA (January 16, 2016) -- SolaTrim™ LLC
(http://www.solatrim.com),
innovators in protective barriers to beautify and safeguard
residential solar systems, today announced that the company has
signed a distribution agreement with Hybrid Power Supply
(http://www.hybridpowersupply.com)
of Calgary, Alberta. With this new distribution agreement, SolaTrim
not only expands its market presence into Canada but also opens up
new sales opportunities in niche alternative energy applications.
Unlike
many residential solar system distributors, Hybrid Power Supply
targets specific channels and markets, including off-the-grid power
systems, marine solar systems, and RV solar systems. The distributor
maintains an intimate catalog and does not offer preconfigured
residential solar system modules. Instead, they offer specialty
products such as solar batteries, power inverters, controllers, and
switches as well as solar panels that can be assembled into custom
solar systems. Hybrid Power Supply considers itself a value-added
solar distributor, offering product training, support, and warranty
servicing to dealers and installers.
"We
believe that protection of solar systems is something that's been
neglected by the industry for far too long," said Haig Davis,
president of Hybrid Power Supply. "We are excited to be bringing
SolaTrim to Canada as now we have a product available to Canadian
solar installers and homeowners that provides the last vital
component in the residential solar installation and what's great is
SolaTrim does this in an aesthetically pleasing, easy to fit
practical way."
Hybrid
Power Supply will be supplying solar installers across Canada with
SolaTrim barriers. SolaTrim is an ideal addition to Hybrid Power
Supply's catalog of solar charge controllers, inverters, and
batteries.
"We
are delighted to have found a specialty distributor such as Hybrid
Power Supply to help open the Canadian region, and introduce SolaTrim
to new integrators serving niche markets," said Bob Smith,
co-founder and President of SolaTrim. "Canada is a burgeoning
market for solar power, and SolaTrim barriers are ideal for keeping
debris and pests from under solar arrays. SolaTrim also helps prevent
rooftop snow loading and ice dams by preventing snow from
accumulating under solar arrays in winter."
SolaTrim
is an all-weather aluminum barrier stiffened by design to resist
warping or bending and diamond-stamped to facilitate airflow. The
SolaTrim panels come with a peel-and-stick adhesive that attaches
permanently to the solar frame and requires no drilling or clips that
could negatively affect the system's appearance or the solar module
manufacturers' warranty. The adhesive has been tested to withstand
extreme weather conditions and will last for the life of the solar
system so it will permanently prevent birds and rodents from nesting
under the solar array, which can cause damage to the solar systems.
