Englert's SunNet thin film, solar laminates (BIPV) form the top layer of the sandwich, generating electricity from dawn to dusk. These laminates are made from lightweight and unbreakable self-adhesive materials and attach directly to the standing seam roof panel. They work well in cloudy, low light conditions and are excellent on curved roof surfaces. SunNet BIPV laminates are low profile and blend in nicely with most metal roof profiles.
An Englert standing seam roof metal roof is the critical platform and centerpiece of the "solar sandwich". The roof supports the thin film laminates and a second energy system below it. The roof's ULTRA-Cool coatings meet Energy Star® and LEED™ requirements for reflectivity and emissivity, reflecting heat away from the building, cutting urban smog and extending the life expectancy of the roof due to less expansion and contraction. Englert standing seam metal roofs will last at least twice as long as other roofing materials, providing an ideal, long lasting platform for any solar energy system.
The third layer is a Solar Thermal System installed under the standing seam roof that absorbs energy into a concealed collection system and transfers it to provide energy for the building's heat and hot water. The system also automatically cools the roof making the BIPV more efficient.

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide
Introducing RockIt Smart Slide - the ultimate solution for fast and easy installation of the rail-less RockIt racking system on composition shingle roofs. Smart Slide conforms to UL 441 and TAS 100 (A)-95 for wind and wind-driven rain, providing a super-strong watertight seal that is achieved through compression, in most cases without the need for additional sealant. The waterproofing sealant is embedded deep into the granules of the shingle, thanks to the integrated flexible foam layer that provides cushioning. This ensures a secure fit that conforms to any architectural-style shingle. With UltraGrip Technology™, you can rely on a secure installation, as it absorbs the movement created by thermal expansion and contraction. The pre-installed sealing pads are compatible with all composition shingle roofs, making it the ideal choice, even in ambient temperatures as low as 5 degrees.
