HDM Solar
HDM Solar champions sustainable living through top-tier solar technology. Founded in 2017 in East Yorkshire by a family with a passion for green energy, they focus on selling and advising on solar setups. Their team make solar energy accessible and easy to use, ensuring every household and business can contribute to a greener planet.
What We Provided HDM Solar
Locators first connected with HDM Solar through a speculative layout of their new Ferndown site. Our proposal led to an efficient project that met HDM Solar's storage and access needs as they expanded into Southern England. This initial joint venture exemplifies how bespoke storage solutions can significantly enhance operational efficiency.
Following Ferndown, we were invited to replicate our success at HDM Solar's Sheffield branch. Here, we implemented tailored racking systems designed to handle a range of solar energy products. Our solutions included adaptable pallet racking and sturdy cantilever systems. These were integral for the safe and systematic storage of oversized solar panels and lengthy mounting rails. In addition to storage solutions, we provided a fully refurbished electric forklift to help with material handling.
Though we have yet to work at HDM Solar's Hull HQ, our projects in Ferndown and Sheffield were clearly triumphant. As such, the groundwork laid in Ferndown and Sheffield has set a strong precedent for future collaborations. Our ongoing bond aims to support their capability to distribute renewable energy resources across the UK. Our work across each site showcases our commitment to fostering scalable and sustainable growth.
