Soltec has successfully completed the dynamic facade project for the prestigious Gotthardská Residence in Prague. As part of the project, we carried out full product documentation, created a prototype, and produced 52 advanced systems. Our panels, requiring minimal installation space, can span glass surfaces up to 10 meters in length and 3.5 meters in height, making them ideal for protecting large panoramic windows. The project, which has been nominated for the Czech National Architecture Award, proudly showcases the collaboration between Soltec and top architects in creating modern and energy-efficient living solutions.

At Soltec, we are proud of the Blu Mare’s dynamic façade. Our BM sliding panels are not only aesthetically pleasing, but also offer a range of functional benefits:

Comfort: sunlight regulation allows pleasant living all year round. The panels protect against wind, noise and allow privacy.
Functionality: the panels are resistant to strong winds (up to 160 km/h) and are easy to operate manually.
Aesthetics: the modern design fits in with the architecture of the old town and is reminiscent of traditional Istrian shutters.
Collaboration with the architects Randić i suradnici /Atelier West has allowed us to create an innovative solution that offers a solution to the challenges of modern construction in a seaside environment, while creating a unique and comfortable living experience.

The Blu Mare project is another example of how Soltec creates unique spaces for its clients that combine beauty, comfort and sustainability.

We are pleased to announce that we have successfully completed the installation of our own 45 kW solar power plant, which represents an important step towards a greener and more energy independent future. The plant is equipped with the innovative Soltec mounting system, which we developed ourselves. The mounting system boasts outstanding durability, weather resistance and ease of installation. The installation of the solar power plant is an important milestone in our commitment to sustainable development. It will reduce our carbon footprint and increase our energy independence.

We believe that solar energy is the key to a better future and we are happy to share our knowledge and experience with others.

We invite companies involved in the installation of solar power plants to join us. We will be happy to share our experience and knowledge on the use of our substructure. We are convinced that together we can achieve even better results and contribute to a greener future.

Join us as we unveil our newest creations designed to transform your outdoor spaces into havens of comfort and sustainability. Introducing our star attractions:

Outdoor Kitchen

Not all outdoor kitchens are the same. At Soltec, we transcend the ordinary by seamlessly integrating your favourite kitchen features into the garden. Our outdoor culinary spaces, enveloped in luxurious ALU composite, boast a substantial stone countertop, soft-close drawers, gentle ambient LED illumination, and other meticulously curated details. Designed for those who appreciate the finer things in life, our premium outdoor kitchens redefine al fresco dining. Pair them with our bioclimatic pergolas for a truly deluxe outdoor experience. With meticulous attention to detail and the finest materials, our premium outdoor kitchens set the standard for sophistication.

Cabrio Bioclimatic Pergola

This bioclimatic pergola is made of aluminium and is both aesthetically pleasing and versatile. Its adjustable blades allow you to control the amount of shade and ventilation you want, making it perfect for any time of year. On hot days, the open blades let warm air escape, while on cooler days, the closed blades provide a cozy and protected environment. What sets our Cabrio pergola apart from the classic variant is the ability to slide the blades to the side for an unobstructed view of the sky. Our unique technology allows you to rotate the blades up to 160 degrees, giving you even more control over the microclimate and making maintenance easier.

Solar Pack Carport

Power up your electric vehicle while shielding it from the elements with our Carport with Solar pack. Constructed from sturdy aluminium, it boasts solar panels, a charging station, and an optional power storage for eco-friendly energy generation.

Greenport

Bring nature to new heights with our Greenport. Enhance various roofs, carports or storage units with lush greenery. Thanks to its durable aluminium frame and carefully chosen planting that require no maintenance, your eco-friendly designs come to life with ease. Experience cleaner air and reduced you carbon footprint with this innovative green roof solution.

Shutter Systems

Secure your spaces with style using Soltec’s diverse range of shutter systems. From safety to shading, ventilation, and aesthetics, our shutters offer comprehensive protection against the elements. Take a look at the sliding, folding and lifting shutters and imagine them upgrading your building design.

Waste Enclosure

At Soltec, we think about your comfort even when your hands are full. Our waste enclosures open automatically and allow you to separate waste without touching anything. In addition, the ALU construction of the trash cans is elegant and adapts to other elements of the outdoor design. To top it off, you can cover the trash can with greenery or turn it into a flower bed.

Join us at booth A22 in Hall 6, and witness firsthand how Soltec is shaping the future of outdoor living comfort and storage. Let’s collaborate to create spaces that are both luxurious and sustainable. See you at R+T 2024!

The Future of Roof Solar Panel Installations

We are announcing the launch of our innovative mounting systems for solar panels. With a decade of experience in processing aluminium profiles, we have identified market needs and responded with a product that exceeds expectations due to its outstanding features and advantages:

Why Choose Soltec Mounting Systems for Solar Panels?

• High Wind and Snow Resistance: Innovative component geometry ensures exceptional wind resistance, enabling greater strength compared to other products on the market. This is our response to the changing weather conditions we have witnessed recently.
• Long-lasting Durability: Our systems are made from high-quality non-corrosive materials, such as aluminium and stainless steel (inox), ensuring a long lifespan.
• Efficient Installation: The systems are designed to allow easy height and width adjustments, enabling quick installation. In tests, our system has proven to be 12–18% faster than other commonly used systems.
• Modular and Standardized Components: Components can be obtained pre-assembled in sets or individually, facilitating easy handling. Individual elements are standardized and suitable for various projects, reducing costs and enabling optimal storage.
• 10-Year Product Warranty: We stand behind the quality and reliability of our product with a 10-year warranty, ensuring the long-term efficiency and success of your project.
• Sets and Individual Components in Stock: Reduce project lead time and optimize your inventory.

Soltec is a company that listens to market needs and can immediately respond with its own development team. This keeps us ahead of the challenges brought by changes in the business and natural environment. Our mounting systems for solar panels are the result of a decade of experience, regular testing, innovation, and a commitment to excellence. Three types of our most popular substructures, FV1, boast load capacities of 200-240-290 kg/hook. This proves that we can create aluminium components that are stronger than stainless steel (inox), while also being lighter and more cost-effective.
