Technical and Development Competence

Developing Solar Panel Mounting Parts as a Leader in the Industrial Roof Industry

Sakata—a dedicated industrial roof mounting hardware manufacturer—enjoys Japan’s top market share in metal folded-roof components. We flexibly respond to the expectations of customers nationwide. Drawing on a wealth of know-how, we have been developing and marketing mounts, fitting and other hardware for solar panel installations on metal folded-plate roofs since 2008. Our many independently developed innovations include “solar-panel mounting hardware for overlap type (folded-plate roof),” which can be installed without drilling holes in the roof, and “direct solar-panel mounting hardware for seam-lock type (folded-plate roof),” a mount-free system that can be secured using only the solar panel, roof and fittings. Additionally, we design and sell rooftops (flat roofs) and wall mounts for schools, hospitals and other public facilities, as well as for shopping centers and other commercial structures. Backed by our one-stop development-and-manufacturing system, we are committed to moving forward with our customers. Together, we achieve the industry’s finest, most cost-efficient solutions.
