Advanced Roofing Technology, Inc. a manufacturers’ representative company that offers building industry professionals—architects, engineers, managers, and owners—a distinctly different approach to material selection, and MiaSolé have entered into a Sales Representative Agreement. Advanced Roofing Technology, Inc. will sell MiaSolé FLEX modules in Hawaii and the Pacific Islands.
Advanced Roofing Technology was founded in 1991 and combines a total of 43 years of hands-on roofing and construction experience with more than two decades of marketing professionalism. Advanced Roofing Technology, Inc. has continually molded the firm to market demands and industry trends without compromising excellence in standards and practices.
Advanced Roofing Technology will sell MiaSolé FLEX modules, the most efficient thin-film lightweight flexible modules on the market today with an efficiency rating of +16%. MiaSolé FLEX modules bond directly to the roof surface with a simple peel-and-stick adhesive. The low-profile FLEX module provides superior wind resistance and a seismic advantage over traditional rack-and-panel systems where their higher profile increases the likelihood of damage in a hurricane or earthquake, making FLEX modules the ideal solar solution for the Hawaiian and Island markets. This adhesive approach also eliminates the need for racking and reduces labor and logistics cost to provide a 20% lower BOS cost than traditional glass solar systems.
The FLEX-02 Series module is available in two formats. The FLEX-02W module is 39.3 inches x 102.3 inches and is rated at 360-watts, and designed for low-slope commercial single-ply roof systems. The FLEX-02N module is 14.6 inches x 102.3 inches and is rated at 120-watts, and designed specifically for standing-seam metal roofs. The FLEX-02 Series module is IEC 61646 & IEC 61730 and UL 1703 certified.
The FLEX-02 module provides Advanced Roofing customers other significant benefits. The low weight of the module (<0.7 lb/sq ft) allows installation on roofs that cannot support the weight of traditional glass solar panels. Because the FLEX-02 panels adhere directly to the roof surface, there are no penetrations, eliminating the worry of leakage and damage to valuable contents within the building. The FLEX-02 also is aesthetically pleasing, blending into both metal and TPO roofs and preserving the original look of the roof.
