Anyone used these?

Been given a brochure - Australian company pushing Chinese products?

As far as I am aware, BeyondBuildingSolar.co.uk (BBS) set up late last year /early this and had a big staff recruiting campaign around Christmas, it is part of BeyondBuildingEnergy.com (BBE) which is an Australian Company.

Reading BBE's webiste it appears they own Sunnyroo and have a very large presence 'down under'

I haven't tried the products yet, they do have a UK office.

Sunnyroo is detaling with installers, BBS is a direct sales operation.

Anyone any other information?

I work for Sunny Roo Products (SRP) in the UK, we are the manufacturers and wholesalers of our own products.

Just a few facts on the company to help you guys out;

In Australia we are one of the largest manufacturers & wholesalers of Solar PV Products, we do no not manufacture in Australia however this is all done in Taiwan.
We have only recently launched our range of products into the UK at the ECO-build exhibition, we have our own warehouse and offices in the UK with stock on the ground.
All our products have extensive guarantees which are backed by CHUBB insurance policies. (30 years performance on the panels)
All our panels are Bankable and are on the whitelist.
All our products have MCS accreditation and G83 certification

Always amazed me, the electrical industry as never been to backward, or worried in that fact, about where we source our material, but I thought the whole idea of the green revolution in solar, PV and all was to save the planet and it's dwindling resources, and there were are sourcing the very material that is meant to save us from the other side of the world .............. must be me or is this irony.

Kind of yes / no ....
Beyond Building, one of the network of companies that owns the SunnyRoo brand has (originally based out of the east coast of Australia ) recently closed its operations in the UK, it does however still have plans to bring in and supply the range of SunnyRoo panels, inverters etc.
One of their associated companies was based out of Leominster, ww.kel-techsolar.co.uk I don't know if they are still operating, you could give them a try.

Hope that helps - what was the reason for your enquiry?

I have a sunny roo TL4200 inverter and wanted to speak to the company reference it fitted outside in direct sunlight, the company that fitted says it okay but I have my doubts. It is IP65 rated for the rain. Also if it went wrong I presume they would have to replace with another brand now?

Not always as simple as this, the carbon footprint for a PV module is greater moving the module from the UK dock to the end customer than from China to the UK.
For a tender we provided a analysis of the carbon footprint of the modules we were quoting on and there was next to no difference between a Chinese panel and a European one.

Here's the spec sheet for it: View attachment SR_4200TL_Inverter.pdf
(Though presumably you got one of thes in your handover manual )

It claims IP65 and an operating environment temperature rage of -20C to +50C - They did shove an awful lot of these on outside walls in Australia, (NSW and Queensland)
