Allied Solar Products has partnered with CertainTeed to expand the distribution of its Solstice Solar System.<\/p>\n
Dave Jenkins, national vice president of solar for Allied Solar Products, noted his parent company\u2019s long-standing relationship with CertainTeed\u2019s building products divisions and said extending the relationship to its solar division \u201cbuilds on our roofing and solar opportunities\u201d and is \u201ca win for both companies and their contractor customers.<\/p>\n
\u201cAllied Solar always looks for ways to improve its supply chains so we can deliver popular products to as many customers as possible as quickly as possible,\u201d said Jenkins. \u201cThe move allows us to leverage our logistics, just-in-time delivery, and dedicated solar sales teams to deliver Solstice. With one of the best warranties in the industry, this solution translates into value and peace of mind for installers and their customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
CertainTeed\u2019s Solstice system combines high-quality components including modules, inverters, mounting and flashing with a single-source warranty. In addition, when installed by one of CertainTeed\u2019s Credentialed or Master Solar Installers, CertainTeed warrants the installation workmanship on the system for up to 25 years. Considered CertainTeed\u2019s most economical solar solution, Solstice systems are designed to maximize roof space and can be configured to best suit the needs of the client.<\/p>\n
Mark Stancroff, director of CertainTeed Solar, said the Allied Solar Division\u2019s sales know-how and logistical presence would complement CertainTeed\u2019s strong brand recognition and installer base.<\/p>\n
\u201cAllied Solar\u2019s team has strong product knowledge and solar industry expertise,\u201d said Stancroff. \u201cIn addition, their parent company Beacon can deliver roofing material for solar jobs that require reroofs. All of this is supported by Beacon\u2019s Pro+ e-commerce platform that allows customers to order 24 hours a day, seven days a week.<\/p>\n
\u201cSolar and roofing contractors value these solutions which enable them to stand out in the marketplace,\u201d Stancroff added. \u201cAllied\u2019s logistical capabilities and service platform allow them to provide a steady supply of product to contractors, making their work more efficient. They are a natural fit for the distribution of CertainTeed\u2019s value-added solar solutions.\u201d<\/p>\n
