Built to Last
SolarTerra® uses Solrif, a patented tiles system from the Swiss family business Ernst Schweizer located in Hedingen with +100 years of history. The system insures water tightness and withstands heavy snow loads. The red colour is obtained from ceramic pigments that are fused into the glass. The tile is equipped with high efficiency solar cells (>22.5%) to maximise the electricity production.
