JESSUP, Md., June 29 /PRNewswire/ -- Europe's leading provider of world-renowned solar technology, Kingspan Solar Inc., has announced its arrival in Jessup, Baltimore. This follows an incredible response to the company's range of products, especially the European designed and manufactured product - Thermomax, at the International Builders' Show in Las Vegas in January.
The demand for the Thermomax product - the world-leading solar thermal vacuum tube collectors* - is no surprise. Generating hot water for domestic and commercial applications, it was designed in Ireland and is used across the whole of Europe throughout a wide spectrum of weather conditions. It's a tried and tested solar collector with almost 30 years of proven high performance, that's up to 30% more effective than traditional flat plate panels. Its range of applications, including central heating support, under floor heating and solar cooling, makes it one of the world's most versatile and effective products.
Kingspan Solar Inc. is headed up by building industry professionals, Jeff Tomlinson and Seamus Cussen. Jeff comments:
"It was evident that there was a huge opportunity to introduce Kingspan Solar's leading range of solar technology to the US market and given the vast amount of potential customers, we decided to open the first US Kingspan Solar Inc. office at the beginning of May."
The roots of solar technology were firmly established in Baltimore in 1891, thanks to Clarence Kemp. He was the first man to patent a solar thermal system. So, with the arrival of Kingspan Solar Inc.'s Thermomax product, solar technology really has come full circle. Kingspan Solar's range of products will also include Thermomax FS flat panels, Kingspan Climate - the complete solar powered cooling system - and Kingspan Tribune, stainless steel quality hot water storage tanks. Kingspan Solar's growing portfolio of products provides the full solar package that is custom-designed to suit each client's specifications. It's predicted that one of the most popular products for the US market will be the Kingspan Climate system which uses the power of the sun to cool a building. This state-of-the-art system is silent and can save homeowners 90% of the energy costs associated with traditional air cooling systems.
Vice President of Sales, North America, Jeff Tomlinson, and Business Development Manager, North America, Seamus Cussen, have a combined experience of over 25 years in the building sector, specialising in sustainable products. Jeff is a former director of the Timber Frame Industry Association and was a key member of the Kingspan TEK Building System advisory team. Seamus has years of experience in Kingspan's Insulated Panels division, playing a pivotal role in developing Kingspan's first-ever Sustainability Report and was a committee member of EUROACE (The European Alliance of Companies for Energy Efficiency in Building).
Welcoming Kingspan Solar to the home of solar technology, John Leopold, County Executive of Anne Arundel, Maryland, says:
"Helping to create a greener future for us all is of prime importance to Maryland. As the state where solar technology was first developed, we are very proud to welcome Kingspan Solar Inc. and its range of world-leading solar technology to the US. We are extremely pleased that Kingspan Solar has selected Jessup as the location of its first US office and hope that the company's future is bright, creating future jobs and investment in the area."
Jeff concludes:
"It's an exiting time for Kingspan Solar Inc. - moving into new markets and introducing revolutionary solar products to customers that will reduce people's carbon footprint, save money and contribute to a 'greener' future. Kingspan Solar Inc. is committed to providing efficient and cost-effective solutions to today's environmental concerns.
