Why Rugged?

RUGGEDSOLAR® solar panels offer unmatched quality, performance, and reliability. Made stronger than laminated solar modules, they are based on a proprietary manufacturing process employing materials of the highest standard. Don’t confuse RUGGEDSOLAR® panels with cheap alternatives using unreliable materials such as PET laminates or Epoxy coatings. Our products are designed to outperform and to outlast any conventional off-grid solar panel, and come with a standard 10-year warranty.

RUGGEDSOLAR® Panel Specifications

MONOLITHIC CONSTRUCTION

Chemically bonded into a cohesive structure, unlike lamination processes which use only heat and pressure to “glue” stacked layers together.

OPTICALLY CLEAR ENCAPSULATION

Allows maximum solar radiation to reach solar cells for greatest efficiency compared to Thermal Glass or Thin Films (PET, ETFE).

UV RESISTANT ENCAPSULATION

No yellowing over lifetime; no cracking or flaking compared to Epoxy Resin or PET Thin Films.

FIRE RETARDANT MATERIALS

Spark resistant, will self extinguish compared to Thin Films (PET, ETFE) and laminate adhesives (EVA) and backsheets.

SELF-HEALING FACE

Panel surface will recover from bruises, dents, and light abrasion within two hours under sunlight.

FLEXIBLE PROTECTION

Encapsulant remains flexible allowing solar cells, electrical circuit, and connections to move under broad temperature ranges and resist vibration and blunt force.

TOTALLY WATERPROOF ENCAPSULATION

Industrial polymer forms a totally waterproof barrier protecting solar cells and all other electrical parts. With no moisture penetration points the panel is waterproof to 100+ meters depth and 100psi of sustained water pressure.

RUGGEDSOLAR® Panels

Monolithic Construction

Entire Panel chemically bonded

No glass-parts Lighter and shatter-proof
Industrial liquid-polymer Extremely durable
Chemical cure process Full encapsulation for maximum protection

Completely Hydrophobic

No points of water intrusion Totally waterproof to 100meters depth
No absorbent materials No moisture penetration over time
No delamination risk Monolithic structure remains intact

Highly Durable

Resistant to constant vibration Best for off-grid and mobile applications
Can withstand repeated blunt force Heavy-duty construction

LAMINATED Panels

Layered Construction

Panel made of individual layers

Glass cover Heavy & breakable in off-grid applications
Thin adhesive sheets Limited cell protection
Heat & pressure process No chemical curing

Non-Hydrophobic

Water penetration from edges Requires waterproofing silicone
EVA is water retentive Transmits moisture to the cells
Delamination risk over time Delamination causes early failure

Unsuitable for Rough Use

Vibration & Blunt Force will cause breakage Lack of flexible encapsulation
Early failure under harsh conditions Designed for stationary installations
