Manz AG products

Sunlight is converted into electrical energy in solar cells, the core component of photovoltaic systems. Manufacturing these systems involves a wide range of production steps — from silicon extraction to module production. To manufacture these crystalline solar cells, Manz AG concentrates on the third step in the value creation chain: The process from wafer to cell.

The comprehensive product portfolio for manufacturing thin-film solar modules from Manz sets international standards for increased efficiency while lowering production costs. In contrast to crystalline solar technology, in thin-film solar technology the semiconductor is deposited on a glass substrate. This technology is named for the fact that the conductive layer is about 90 times thinner than in crystalline technology.

Fossile energy resources are limited – but locally produced renewables are the future. Choosing Manz means selecting a strong and reliable partner. Choosing the CIGSfab means selecting a mature business model for your investment.

Manz has decades of experience in the manufacture and installation of CIGS thin-film solar modules (CIGS = Copper Indium Gallium Diselenide). With this knowledge, we support you in your BIPV projects and together with our partners offer not only the right thin-film solar modules, but also complete, individually tailored system solutions.
