A Fully Integrated Solar Roof System

Russell Roof Tiles and Solfit have formed a strategic partnership focused on roof-integrated solar for the UK new-build housing sector. 

Solfit has developed a fully integrated in-roof solar system designed specifically for new-build housing, combining roof-integrated solar panels with panel-level microinverter technology and an all-metal mounting architecture.

The system also removes plastic mounting trays commonly used in some in-roof solar installations, replacing them with a dual-glass and all-metal architecture designed to improve fire performance, durability and long-term roof integrity. High-output panels allow required system capacity to be achieved with fewer modules, simplifying roof layouts and reducing penetrations across developments.

Our partnership with Solfit reflects a broader shift in the construction industry as solar moves from being an optional technology upgrade to becoming a structural element of new home design. Through this partnership, we are able to offer integrated solar solutions designed specifically for the UK new-build housing sector.

Drawing on more than 15 years of nationwide solar delivery experience, Solfit combines advanced roof-integrated solar technology with a managed delivery framework covering system design, contractor enablement, compliance oversight, installation auditing and long-term warranty support.

This approach enables solar to be delivered as a predictable and scalable workstream across housing developments.

Solfit’s in-roof mounting system is designed for speed, simplicity, and reliability. The patented interlocking frame creates a watertight seal without complex parts, cutting installation time and reducing on-site errors. With fewer components and no plastic trays, it’s easier to handle, more durable, and fully recyclable. The all-metal design also boosts strength, wind resistance, and fire safety, making it a faster, safer, and longer-lasting solution.
