As energy costs rise and sustainability becomes a business imperative, companies are rethinking how they power their operations. One of the smartest moves? Mounting solar panels on commercial roofs—without drilling, delays or damage.
VELCRO® Brand stick-on solar panel strips make it possible. This lightweight, flexible solution enables solar panels to be installed faster and safer than ever, even on curved roofs.
Why Traditional Mounting Falls Short
Solar energy is an excellent alternative to fossil fuels, but it requires proper installation and ongoing maintenance to perform at its best. For large commercial buildings, traditional mounting systems can be heavy, time-consuming and potentially damaging to the roof. They often require drilling, specialized tools and complex hardware, introducing more opportunities for error, delays and long-term maintenance issues.
At the same time, many commercial buildings are under pressure to meet new renewable energy regulations and take advantage of local incentives. That means solar installations need to be completed quickly, efficiently and with minimal disruption.
Introducing VELCRO® Brand Solar Panel Fasteners
That’s where VELCRO® Brand hook and loop solar panel fasteners come in. Our solution offers a better way to mount solar panels on roofs—one that’s lightweight, flexible and easy to install without compromising the structure or sacrificing reliability.
For commercial facilities spanning hundreds of square feet, this approach provides a smarter way to reduce weight, speed up installation and minimize the risk of material damage. Contractors and solar integrators have trusted VELCRO® Brand products for years as a reliable and proven solution for securing solar panels, especially in large-scale, high-demand environments.
How VELCRO® Brand Fasteners Simplify Solar Panel Installation
Unlike traditional systems that rely on drilling and heavy hardware, VELCRO® Brand fasteners offer a streamlined, tool-free approach. Designed for industrial strength and outdoor durability, these hook and loop fasteners make it easy to attach solar panels securely, without the weight, complexity or risk of damaging the roof.
If you’ve ever wondered how solar panels attach to a roof without compromising its integrity, this is your answer. The system is lightweight, flexible and easy to reposition.
This makes them ideal for:
- Flexible solar panel installation on curved or irregular surfaces, like domed warehouses, arched hangars or rounded commercial rooftops.
- Outfitting business rooftops with solar panels quickly and efficiently, minimizing downtime and avoiding disruptions to daily operations.
- Scaling solar energy across large commercial roofs without the added weight, complexity or risk of installation errors that come with conventional mounting hardware.
The Challenge: Fitting Flexible Solar Panels on Curved Roofs
As the popularity of solar power grows, so does the demand for mounting solar panels on curved roofs, walls and off-grid structures. Traditional systems often fall short in these scenarios, where flexibility and adaptability are key.
Not all mounting surfaces are even and smooth. Many commercial roofs feature irregular shapes that require a mounting solution capable of conforming without compromising performance. VELCRO® Brand fasteners provide a lightweight, non-invasive system that adapts to these surfaces while maintaining strength and reliability.
Precise panel placement is also critical for maximizing energy output, especially on curved or angled surfaces where the orientation to the sun changes throughout the day. A flexible mounting system, like VELCRO® Brand fasteners, allows you to position panels exactly where you need them, free from the limitations of rigid hardware.
Flexible roof solar panels are thin, lightweight and adaptable to non-flat surfaces. They’re ideal for:
– Curved or mobile structures
– Flexible solar shingles for residential or commercial use
They’re easy to install, reposition and maintain, especially when paired with VELCRO® Brand fasteners.
Flexible solar panels and solar shingles are ideal for curved or irregular surfaces. They’re lightweight, easy to install and perfect for structures where traditional panels won’t fit. With VELCRO® Brand fasteners, mounting flexible solar panels becomes even easier—no drilling, no damage and no delays.
The Solution: Attaching Solar Panels to a Roof with VELCRO® Brand Fasteners
VELCRO® Brand fasteners utilize a high-strength hook and loop system—similar to what you’d find on clothing or gear, but engineered for industrial-grade performance. This method allows solar panels to be mounted securely without the need for drilling or heavy equipment.
We provide the hook and loop fasteners, while giving you the flexibility to choose the adhesive that best suits your specific roof or panel material. This ensures optimal performance across a wide range of substrates, climates and installation conditions.
By simplifying the attachment process, our solution:
- Speeds up installation and reduces labor time
- Minimizes the chance of installation errors
- Lowers the risk of worker injury or material damage
- Enables installation in a broader range of weather conditions
- Makes future maintenance or upgrades easier and faster
- Need to upgrade or replace a panel? Just peel and reattach—no tools, no damage.
It’s an innovative, scalable approach for commercial solar projects, especially where traditional mounting systems are too rigid, too slow or too invasive.
Why They Work for Commercial Roofs
Installing solar panels on a roof doesn’t have to be complicated. With VELCRO® Brand fasteners, you reduce weight, speed up installation and avoid costly repairs. This method is especially useful for commercial roofs, where drilling can lead to leaks or structural issues.
VELCRO® Brand fasteners are built to withstand outdoor conditions and remain durable over time. They eliminate the need for heavy parts or extra tools, reducing the risk of worker injury and material damage. And because they’re easy to reposition, they support future upgrades without added labor or cost.
As solar technology continues to evolve, having a mounting system that allows for quick upgrades and easy maintenance is more important than ever.
Locally Sourced Products for Ease on Supply Chains
As solar energy demand grows, so does the need for reliable materials. VELCRO® Brand fasteners are locally sourced and globally available, helping reduce delays in solar panel installation projects. With manufacturing and sales offices worldwide, we support efficient delivery and installation, regardless of the project’s location.
