SolTrak™ Modular Roofing

The idea for the SolTrak™ Modular Solar Roofing system originated when one of the founders needed a new roof on his house. This sparked discussions on roofing materials, which found existing options sorely lacking. Attention soon turned to the possibilities afforded by automotive sector manufacturing techniques, with which the founders were very familiar. Ideas flew fast and furious; innovative solar power technology was included, and SolTrak™ was born. There would be many updates, much development, and new iterations, but the core idea remained: a new kind of roofing system to take solar power mainstream.
