Find out why we are the obvious choice for your next solar mounting project and how our manufacturing expertise can help turn your vision into reality on a grand scale.

In-house structural engineers perform calculations in accordance with Eurocode
Our in-house structural engineers calculate every mounting system in accordance with the stringent Eurocode standard. These meticulous calculations ensure excellent quality and safety for your solar installation.
Systems that are very easy to install
Our mounting systems are remarkably lightweight, which makes installation much easier. This lightweight construction not only saves time, but also enables your project to be assembled cost-effectively. A small number of parts, the use of identical parts and the key-lock principle all reduce the risk of errors.
Lightweight construction for effortless handling and resource-efficient transport
Not only are our systems robust and reliable, but the low weight of the individual components makes handling much easier. This lightweight construction not only contributes to smooth installation, but also reduces the ecological footprint thanks to resource-efficient transport.
Delivery directly ex works from the manufacturer, cutting out the middleman
We deliver your mounting systems directly from the factory to your outdoor space, cutting out the middleman. This enables us to offer good value for money.
Top customer service provided by expert contacts
Our dedicated team of engineers and sales experts are here to help you with your project every step of the way. Not only do we offer first-class products, we also provide a first-class service to ensure that your specific requirements are met. Put your trust in experts who understand and support your project from start to finish.

We play a double role

Start of construction: September 2023
Start of operation: Early 2024

An extensive area spanning 10 hectares – roughly the size of 19 football pitches – is being used to create a sustainable energy source.

The aim of the €8 million solar project is to generate sustainable energy on a large scale.
Choosing the right solar mounting systems played a key role in this. KÖNIG has made a significant contribution to this project by providing high-quality solar mounting systems: Around 20,000 modules and 271 tables, weighing a total of 320 tonnes of steel, will transform an idyllic meadow landscape into a powerful energy supplier that will meet the electricity needs of around 3,500 families.

This solar project is an excellent example of the regional energy transition. As well as providing clean electricity, the extensification of the meadows will provide a valuable habitat for insects and birds, and sheep grazing will be used to maintain the area.

Through the “Oberes Mühlbachtal” energy co-operative, the local authorities, associated municipalities and citizens are involved in the construction and subsequent revenue.

Mounting systems

for solar parks

KÖNIG special profiles can be found in solar parks all over Europe. Collectively, our profiles provide support for hundreds of megawatts of solar modules. Each solar park construction site places specific demands on the mounting system due to static load, topography or ground conditions. Thanks to elaborate variations in material thickness and table width, the system can be tailored to almost any project without changing the assembly process.

Please get in touch with us. We look forward to discussing your ideas and requirements with you.

Static pre-dimensioning thanks to in-house structural engineers

Determination of optimal project requirements

Profile-integrated cable routing

Perfectly coordinated system components

High-quality materials

Final structural design within two weeks

Placement of all installation work with system partners

Certified according to DIN EN ISO 9001 and EN 1090

Precision, from development through to production

Thanks to our extensive expertise in profile and punching technology, we can offer systems that are exceptionally easy to handle, use materials sparingly and are efficient to deliver. Using state-of-the-art profiling equipment in our factories, we achieve the highest quality standards and can produce sturdy, durable and reliable solar mounting systems. Our KÖNIG mounting system for solar parks is one of the lightest yet easiest-to-install systems on the European market, meeting all static requirements.

Vertical

Example setup with 3 modules in VERTICAL ALIGNMENT

The two-support system for PV ground-mounted systems from KÖNIG SOLAR is equally suitable for both horizontal and vertical module alignment
and its dimensions are tailored to the particular project.

The design is intended to bring as little material as necessary to the installation site in order to optimise logistics and handling.
A small number of parts, the use of identical parts and the key-lock principle all reduce the risk of errors.
Thus, individual parts cannot be assembled “the wrong way round”.

Development and production of profiles for drywall construction, industry and photovoltaics

We have been manufacturing metal profiles for modern interior construction for over 50 years. In addition, we develop and produce customised special profiles for industry.

Our main focus is the cold forming of slit strips. Thanks to our modern machinery, we can produce virtually any profile geometry, and we can do it fast! As a flexible company, efficient customer solutions are our top priority.

Special profiles are individual steel profiles for a wide range of applications. From planning to production, they constitute custom-fit solutions. KÖNIG is a system supplier to many industries, such as mechanical engineering, renewable energies, agricultural technology, sanitary, heating and air-conditioning technology, transport, module and shelf construction, the furniture industry and lots more.

Thanks to our own fleet of trucks and central, convenient location in the heart of Germany, we deliver promptly and reliably.

The energy transition requires innovative approaches and alternative energy sources. The integration of CO2-reduced steel in solar plant mounting systems is a big step in the right direction. We are proud to work with KÖNIG in making this ground-breaking change and to play a part in reducing CO2 emissions.”

Managing Director KÖNIG Profilsysteme

“The use of CO2-reduced steel enables us to offer our customers environmentally friendly special profiles that meet the highest quality standards. Our sturdy, durable solar mounting systems support our customers in achieving their sustainable goals while helping to reduce their ecological footprint.”

As a renowned manufacturer of solar installation systems, we are committed to creating a future that is eco-friendly. Thanks to our pioneering collaboration with thyssenkrupp Materials Processing Europe, ever since May 2023 we have been able to use CO2-reduced steel in our products. This innovative approach helps to significantly reduce CO2 emissions in solar mounting systems and to shorten the energy payback time of solar installations.

Photovoltaic systems are considered a key technology for the sustainable generation of electricity from solar energy. However, in order to further minimise the ecological footprint of these systems, we have opted to integrate CO2-reduced steel from thyssenkrupp Materials Processing Europe. This step has resulted in an impressive CO2 reduction of more than 60 %
in our mounting systems for solar parks.

The certified Product Carbon Footprint calculator from thyssenkrupp Materials Services plays a key role in this project. This calculator makes it possible to calculate the exact CO2 emissions of every product supplied in a transparent manner, from manufacture through to delivery. This transparency across the entire supply chain enables us to design our added-value processes in a sustainable way.

The starting material used, bluemint® recycled from thyssenkrupp Steel Europe, boasts a remarkable 64% reduction in CO2. This steel is based on high-quality scrap recycling and contributes significantly to the BEYOND sustainability strategy of thyssenkrupp Materials Services.

About thyssenkrupp Materials Processing Europe: thyssenkrupp Materials Processing Europe is a leading steel and aluminium service centre with eleven sites in six countries. The company offers us tailor-made services and digital solutions for flat steel and non-ferrous metals for various industrial sectors.
