EcoFoot2+ Ballasted Flat-Roof Mounting System was installed on the record-breaking 3.5 MW array for Magid Glove and Safety Manufacturing Company in Romeoville, IL. Completed in November 2018, this is the largest rooftop solar installation in the Midwest. 

Electricity generated from the array offsets 100 percent of Magid’s energy load and supports their mission as an innovator and cost-saving leader in the personal protective equipment (PPE) industry.

Magid awarded the project to CECCo, Chicago’s No. 1 electrical contractor, and Convergence Energy, an industry leading developer of commercial and industrial solar projects in the Midwest.

CECCo chose Ecolibrium Solar’s EcoFoot2+ Ballasted Racking System to secure more than 10,000 solar panels on the roof  for Magid Glove and Safety's 3.5 MW installation.

EcoFoot2+ gave CECCo advantages that are significant, particularly leveraged over a large installation.

Advantages include:
•A structurally rigid and UL2703-certified racking solution

•Fast, simple installation process

•High packing density for savings in shipping, transport, staging and installation

•Onsite technical support
