“This solar installation represents our commitment to sustainable manufacturing practices while also making sound business decisions,” said Emile Coopman, Continuous Improvement Manager at Beauflor. “It’s a win for our customers, our company, and the planet.”The system, which includes nearly 2,000 solar panels, was completed in under four months. Under a 30-year solar energy procurement agreement, Cherry Street Energy invested $1.8 million to build and maintain the system. Beauflor purchases the electricity directly, allowing us to realize immediate energy savings and long-term cost stability.
"Our solution—on-site solar with no capital expense—delivers just that: reliable, affordable electricity. Simple as sunshine"At Beauflor USA, sustainability isn’t just a goal—it’s a commitment. We’re proud to announce the activation of Metro Atlanta’s largest rooftop solar power system by capacity, located right here at our manufacturing facility in Cartersville, Georgia.
Thanks to our partnership with Cherry Street Energy, this 1,040 kW solar system is now generating clean, renewable energy to support our operations—without any upfront capital investment. The system will produce enough electricity annually to power over 100 homes or charge 77 million mobile devices. Even more impressively, it will offset approximately 920 metric tons of carbon emissions each year—the equivalent of 923 acres of forestland absorbing carbon.
This installation is just the beginning. With plans for future expansion, Beauflor is taking bold steps toward a more sustainable future.
