Swiss company SolarMax, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of grid-connected solar inverters, has today announced a new distribution partnership with the Mark Group, Australia’s leading energy efficiency and renewable energy company to provide SolarMax products in Australia.

This agreement will make Australia one of the first countries in Mark Group’s global business to distribute SolarMax’s Swiss-made S series and MT series solar inverters and accessories with immediate effect.

SolarMax’s products are globally renowned and available in any configuration for projects of any size from simple residential installations to plants that require capacity on a large scale. SolarMax key account manager Australia Gavin Merchant says, “SolarMax is delighted to be partnering with Mark Group, a company that shares our commitment and values towards promoting and supplying quality solar products that fits with SolarMax’s core product values and quality proposition.

“Over the last twelve months since SolarMax established its presence in Australia, we have continued to grow our market awareness and distribution channels. Having a distribution partnership with Mark Group sets SolarMax up for further growth and expansion in Australia.”

Mark Group is one of the largest installers of solar energy systems in Australia for homes and businesses. It has gained a reputation for offering the highest quality solar power, energy management, ventilation and insulation products in Australia.

Mark Group Australia’s chairman Rob Grant says the company reached its decision to partner with SolarMax after extensively testing SolarMax’s S and MT series inverters.

“Mark Group has built its reputation as being a trusted expert in energy advice over the last 40 years. We consistently source for quality products to meet the increasing demand for energy efficiency solutions from our residential and commercial customers,” Rob says.

“Having evaluated SolarMax’s products, we were impressed by the superior quality of its inverters and we are delighted to be offering SolarMax to our customers.”
