Sun Ballast obtains the ETN certification: with photovoltaic ballasts, PV systems are solid and safe
After a thorough process of analysis and technical review, Sun Ballast’s main mounting systems for photovoltaic panels have obtained ETN certification: a fundamental step to ensure the highest level of reliability for all French customers.
ETN-certified photovoltaic ballasts: a guarantee of quality and safety
The ETN certificate (Enquête Technique Nouvelle) is an important recognition issued by accredited technical bodies in France, certifying that products meet stringent national standards for safety, durability, and reliability. Essential for those working in the field of photovoltaic structures for flat roofs, ETN ensures that certified systems are fully compatible with the requirements of French projects, offering both industry professionals and end customers the highest level of protection and safety.
Simple, long-lasting, and quick-to-install photovoltaic structures
Ideal for professionals seeking a simple, solid, and quick-to-install solution, Sun Ballast’s concrete structures can be used on any type of flat surface, require no drilling and are available in a wide range of configurations with inclinations from 0° to 30°.
Sun Ballast’s catalog – comprising over 40 different models – includes both single-row and grid systems, offering a solution for every technical need. Concrete PV racking solutions are designed to provide the perfect balance between energy performance, wind resistance and roof load, and they can also be used with large-sized photovoltaic panels.
The high-quality materials used – C32/40 concrete with an internal extra-reinforced metal bar – also ensure excellent resistance to any form of corrosion, and all Sun Ballast’s products are guaranteed for 25 years.
