Unirac Inc., a manufacturer of PV mounting systems, and Solar Stack, a Florida-based manufacturer of a non-ballasted, non-penetrating solar mounting solution, have announced an exclusive global license deal for the Solar Stack product. With the signing of this technology deal, the two companies are poised to expand on the momentum set by the founders of Solar Stack.
For more than 20 years, Unirac has paced the North American market as a provider of PV mounting solutions. The deal with Solar Stack continues Unirac’s series of acquisitions, strategic partnerships, and new product and service introductions, part of its Better Solar Starts Here program to provide customers with installation ease for residential and commercial solar.
“We are very excited to announce the partnership with Solar Stack as our quest continues to demonstrate our market leadership,” says Peter Lorenz, Unirac CEO. “Continuous improvement and innovation are the keys to pushing the market forward, and this partnership is yet another example of that.”
Tim and Michelle Graboski, two of Florida’s roofing veterans, founded Solar Stack with a singular vision; providing solar installers with a mounting solution that does not penetrate the roof. The founders applied knowledge gained from more than 30 years in the roofing industry and Tim’s service on the Florida Building Commission to develop a structural attachment of code-approved commercial foam adhesive that bonds to the roof surface and anchors the patented Solar Stack pedestal. The product is suited for fastened tile roofs, like those in Florida, and commercial flat roofs. It has had success in Florida, where it holds certification for use in High-Velocity Hurricane Zones.
Tim Graboski, CEO of Solar Stack, comments, “A partnership with Unirac was the obvious choice, and we felt strongly that they were the ideal partner. We both share a passion and commitment for bringing innovation to the market and serving our customers, and we are very excited to see Solar Stack in the Unirac family of products.”
