TerraSmart, a Fort Myers, Fla.-based designer and manufacturer of solar photovoltaic racking and foundation products, has entered into a partnership with Germany-based Krinner GmbH, which owns a patented ground-screw technology used in ground-mount solar installations.
The agreement will involve a manufacturing and distribution partnership, according to the companies. TerraSmart will offer a full range of Krinner ground screws, installation machines and technical support to U.S. solar integrators.
‘As the U.S. solar marketplace continues its solar expansion, we see TerraSmart as a strategic U.S. partner to assist Krinner in extending its patented ground-screw brand,’ says Peter Hammer, vice president of international export for Krinner.
