Parrs Products is a renowned leader in New Zealand-made skincare. Since 1951, they have been an Auckland staple, known for their natural ingredients and global export success.
Operating a high-volume manufacturing plant in New Lynn, Parrs wanted to reduce their power bills to reduce their operating expenses and their carbon emissions. As daytime shift operators, they were the perfect candidates for a commercial solar system to offset manufacturing loads during peak sunlight hours.
The primary goal here was to slash power bills and reduce their reliance on the grid, especially as industrial electricity prices continue to climb in the Auckland region. Our team delivered a system that reduced their power bills significantly and will last 25+ years on the roof.
