Solar Railing
The Mitrex SolaRailTM system uses integrated photovoltaic technology to extend solar energy generation to balconies, maximizing energy production on otherwise unused surfaces. Transparency, Colour, & Design Options, Safe & Code-Compliant, Endless Applications, 25-Year Warranty
Mitrex solar railings guarantee strength, durability, safety, and beauty. The application options are boundless; as long as the railing has access to sunlight, solar energy will be passively generated and supplied back to the structure. The railing system can also be customized to meet the desired aesthetic; from the level of transparency to the tint of the balcony glass to the metal handrails and posts, a wealth of options are available to suit any design.
Mitrex solar railings consist of high-efficiency solar cells sandwiched between a front layer of heat-tempered, laminated glass and a back layer of either glass, back sheet, or aluminum honeycomb. Depending on the desired aesthetic, solar technology can be either monocrystalline silicon solar cells or thin-film. The solar cells are entirely integrated into the railing system, as well as the wiring and circuitry. The solar glass is code compliant and conforms to all safety and durability requirements.
Energize your balconies with the world’s first transparent, bird-friendly, power-producing solar railings.
Birds have evolved the ability to see ultraviolet (UV) light. Since Mitrex Solar Glass absorbs UV light from the sun, birds perceive our solar railings as solid, opaque objects. Therefore, all Mitrex solar railings utilize bird-friendly solar glass as the integrated solar cells absorb the sun’s UV rays. Mitrex SolaRailTM makes it easy to design your structures with ecological, sustainable, aesthetic building materials.
Mitrex offers SolaRailTM in opaque solid colours or patterns while providing seamless energy generation. Recreating any look, Mitrex Solar Railings can match any design or pattern to incorporate solar technology into your structures invisibly.
