What SUNSTYLE does
SUNSTYLE (legal entity SunStyle AG) is a privately held Swiss manufacturer of Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) solar roof tiles, headquartered in Ostermundigen, Switzerland. The company designs and sells diamond-shaped monocrystalline PERC silicon tiles in a patented dragon-scale interlocking pattern that doubles as both a weathertight roof covering and a photovoltaic power generator. Its product range includes the SunStyle 745 tile (84 Wp, 172 Wp/m²) and 870 tile (115 Wp, 170 Wp/m²), supplied in Black, Grey, and Terracotta variants with both glass-backsheet and premium glass-glass constructions backed by 25- and 30-year power warranties, respectively. The company also supplies inactive edge tiles and color-matched aluminum composite panels for non-generating roof areas and unique geometries.
SunStyle serves two primary end markets — residential property owners (new builds, renovations, and historic preservation) and commercial building developers (including parking structures and architectural projects) — alongside two indirect personas: architects/specifiers and a network of certified installers. The company operates an exclusively indirect, channel-partner go-to-market: it does not sell directly to end users, instead routing all hardware sales through trained and certified roofing, carpentry, plumbing, and solar installers who receive technical documentation, on-site support, and an interactive partner-locator map. Geographic markets served include Switzerland, France, the United States, Canada, and Mexico, with reference installations comprising the Hèrémence multi-storey car park (~250,767 kWp, 3,000+ tiles) and the 2024 Stöcklen Meierskappel residential retrofit (13 kWp). Cumulative scale is reported at over 600,000 shingles installed and approximately 60 MW of capacity deployed globally.
The business model is project-based hardware sales of a premium building envelope product, with quote-driven pricing (no published list prices), revenue from active tiles plus system components (edge tiles, mounting hardware, edge-finish panels), and dependence on a trained installer channel. Certification depth — IEC 61215, IEC 61730 (Class II), UL 1703, IEC 61701, IEC 62716, CSTB external validation, and SUPSI snow-load testing above 15.4 kN/m² — constitutes a significant compliance moat. The firm operates with 1-10 employees, has not disclosed funding or revenue, and is dependent on a multi-channel marketing stack (multilingual website, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, BIM objects, downloadable datasheets) to feed its installer channel.
