Adhesive tapes for solar panels


solar industry key visual
The importance of solar energy is rising. Within this rapidely changing environment tesa can help you improve your products and processes.

tesa® tapes have proven their performance in numerous industrial applications all over the world. Our membership of the German association for the solar industry BSW allows us to follow the latest trends. In order to provide reliable high quality tape solutions, the guidelines of IEC 61215 are our benchmark.

Together with the TÜV Rheinland we are checking the performance of our mounting tapes after exposure to heat, cold and humidity.

Due to the global presence of tesa our sales team can assist in choosing the right tapes and optimizing your application processes in all of your plants.
For multiple applications in the production of solar moduls tesa is offering the right solution. Advantages in using self-adhesive mounting tapes are:

  • Simple & fast assembly
  • Clean mounting process
  • Reliable product performance

And now tesa ACXplus offers more possibilities. The tesa ACXplus family is based on a viscoelastic acrylic adhesive which offers superior resistance to humidity, weathering and water penetration, a very high initial and ultimate bond as well as compensating for the different rates of thermal expansions of bonded parts.
