A new era for roofs
SunRoof is the most efficient solar roof on the market. Our underlying objective is to replace all roofs with SunRoofs that will produce enough electricity for people around the globe, ensuring a future where we can thrive together with nature.
The revolutionary concept for solar roofs came to life in Sweden in 2013, based on the opportunities that solar technology offered at that time, coupled with the high-quality Swedish design. The functionality of our roofs sets new standards, as they protect, insulate and ventilate houses, and produce electricity at the same time. Integrated with the whole structure of the building, they are simple, lightweight, and easy to install thanks to novel and specially designed materials and fittings that entirely substitute multiple-layer roofs. SunRoof’s matching panels and trims make for a coherent and highly elegant structure. With the eye-catching modern look and the ultra-smooth solar panel surface, SunRoof is an innovative solution like no other.
Setting a new standard in construction – the ACTIVE Home
ACTIVE Home brings a new quality in energy-independent buildings, with the underlying idea of a harmonious relationship between three aspects that are key for man: comfort, energy, and the environment. Original solutions allow for maximum consumption of electricity produced by SunRoof, thereby satisfying the electricity demand of even the most demanding residents. The technology that enables smart energy management makes life easier and more convenient. SunRoofs ambition is to provide solar roofs with the lowest carbon footprint on the market.
Possibilities of SunRoof worldwide
We want everyone to have access to SunRoof, an eco-friendly and extremely efficient solar roof. We create innovative technologies and purposefully present our vision of a world of sustainable energy in other countries.
After our success in Sweden, equipped with knowledge, experience and strong funding, we are expanding into global markets.
