The world of Sun Ballast
Sun Ballast was founded in 2012, drawing from extensive hands-on experience in photovoltaic system installation. With over 50,000 solar PV systems installed worldwide by its customers, the company is now a leading international provider of racking systems for solar panels on flat roofs.
Pure strength at your service.
Innovating
is simplifying.
BECAUSE STRENGTH IS NOT A MATTER OF OPINION.
From the very beginning,
our goal has been to solve the common challenges associated with traditional metal mounting systems, which are often difficult and time-consuming to install. To address this, we developed pre-assembled ballasts—a single concrete component that acts as both a support and a ballast, requiring no assembly and suitable for placement on any flat surface without the need for drilling holes.
A revolution
born from experience.
Thanks to their simplicity, Sun Ballast racking systems have revolutionized the solar panel mounting sector in just a few years. With over 5 million ballasts sold globally, Sun Ballast now operates in more than 10 locations across the United States, Europe and North Africa.
To ensure compliance with local regulations and certifications, maintain a steady product supply, and simplify access to incentives and financing, Sun Ballast’s racking systems sold in the United States are exclusively manufactured in local facilities in New Hampshire and Wisconsin. These ballasts are produced using domestic raw materials and industrial processes tailored to the highest standards.
The unique climate conditions of New England—characterized by strong winds, heavy snowfalls, saline fog, and frequent freeze-thaw cycles—have driven the development of ballasts that prioritize durability, strength, and safety. Our design and manufacturing processes are focused on achieving exceptional build quality, ensuring long-lasting performance in even the most challenging environments.
MADE TO LAST
Built to Withstand, Engineered to Last.
Much more than just a ballast.
In addition to manufacturing, Sun Ballast provides comprehensive technical, commercial, and logistical support to all its clients. Our team offers free, end-to-end assistance, from PV system design to wind load calculations and building weight analyses. Sun Ballast mounting systems are now widely available across the United States, providing a reliable, efficient, and innovative solution for solar professionals.
