Somont AG, Umkirch

This strong growth increased the space requirements for the production area at Somont, a technology leader in high-speed soldering systems for solar cells.

More Light for PV Production

Strong growth increased the space requirements for the production area of Somont, a technology leader in high-speed soldering systems for solar cells. The complete renovation of an existing building complex in Umkirch created 4,000 m² of manufacturing capacity. During the renovation, improving energy efficiency and drainage had to be balanced with preserving the sculptural shed roofs. These goals were achieved cost-effectively and with remarkable precision in detail using the selected mullion glazing from INDU LIGHT. Additionally, air quality in the production hall was significantly improved with Draco-vent ventilation louvers. The result: forward-looking indoor quality for the manufacturer of forward-looking PV technology.
