More efficient installation with ValkAce: The experience of PakDeZon

Arjan Ottenbros, founder and owner of PakDeZon B.V., is involved in the installation of solar energy systems on a daily basis. “Entrepreneurship is elite sport and to achieve success you need to be fully committed at all times,” he says. He is constantly looking for ways to work more efficiently and effectively. With the new ValkAce mounting system, he has found an innovative solution that makes installations easier and faster.

His company recently completed a project in which the ValkAce mounting system from Van der Valk was used for the first time. This experience not only demonstrated the installation convenience of the new system, but also highlighted the value of a long-term partnership with reliable partners Libra Energy and Van der Valk Solar Systems.

First hands-on experience with ValkAce

For a recent residential project, PakDeZon chose to apply ValkAce for the first time. This immediately created the opportunity to provide valuable feedback to Libra Energy and Van der Valk. One of the key advantages of ValkAce is the universal roof hook, which is suitable for both landscape and portrait mounting. “The universal roof hook of ValkAce saves both time and space,” Arjan explains. This means installers need to carry fewer different components, saving both time and storage space.

In addition, the system features a square profile, which is stronger than traditional U-shaped profiles. These characteristics clearly distinguish ValkAce as a reliable and practical mounting system for solar panel installations.

Long-standing partnership with Libra Energy

The collaboration between PakDeZon and Libra Energy started in 2012. “In 2012 we built a floating system for a client and through Van der Valk Solar Systems I ended up at Libra,” says Arjan. At that time, Libra Energy was still a small company in Castricum, and PakDeZon collected materials on a weekly basis.

Over the years, both companies have grown significantly and the partnership has only become stronger. Van der Valk plays an important role in this. The brand is known for its innovative mounting systems and its open attitude towards installer feedback. “Van der Valk offers a solution for every type of mounting application and is open to feedback from installers to continuously improve their products,” Arjan explains.

A smart choice for installers

The first experience with ValkAce was very positive. Although the real benefits will become fully visible after multiple installations, it is already clear that the system helps installers work more efficiently. “ValkAce is an excellent product with minimal storage requirements and universal applicability,” Arjan concludes.

He is convinced of the quality and functionality of ValkAce and recommends the system to anyone looking for a smart and space-saving mounting solution. With this innovative mounting system, PakDeZon once again takes a step forward in the solar energy sector, where efficiency and quality always come first.
