Our process makes Sunflare modules better. No roll-to-roll process can create panels as uniform and reliable as Sunflare. Precise cell-by-cell manufacturing produces superior quality.
Light, thin, and flexible panels. The first CIGS panel precision-engineered to meet exacting specifications for outstanding performance and reliability.
No purification of silicon
No glass
No mount
1/10 of the Global Warming Potential of Silicon Modules
The production process for Sunflare solar modules results in a global warming potential (GWP) of just 1/10 of silicon modules.
The Sunflare manufacturing process is very energy efficient versus silicon production which requires temperatures of 1800 degrees Celsius. Sunflare uses an extremely thin light-absorbing CIGS layer with less than 1mm of elemental materials in its production process. In addition, there’s no glass. And the Flex60 has no aluminum frame.
Note: Global Warming Process is measured as kilogram C02-equivalents. The increase of earth’s temperature is related to the increase of the emission of gases, such as CO2, methane, water vapor, nitrous oxide and CFCs, among others, from man-made sources, mainly from the burn of fossil fuels.

Study reviewed and approved by Swedish independent third-party institute Miljögiraff AB.
Does not rely on toxic chemicals. No lead, cadmium, hydrofluoric acid, or hydrochloric acid.
Requires less water to manufacture and recycles the little water used
Materials are recycled when spent.
Unlike fossil fuels, Sunflare solar panels do not produce pollutants or release CO2 into the atmosphere as they generate energy.
80% less energy to produce than Silicon.
