Hughes Print Powers Up for a Greener Future with Insolation Solar
Transforming Hughes Print with Sustainable Energy Solutions
Hughes Print, a leading printing company in Wolverhampton, partnered with Insolation Solar to undertake a major sustainability upgrade. Led by Howard and his expert team, the project involved re-roofing the facility, installing a new warm roof, and integrating a cutting-edge solar energy system.
Seamless Installation with Zero Downtime
To ensure Hughes Print’s operations continued without interruption, the old roof was over clad, allowing business as usual while the work was carried out. Once the full insulation was laid, a brand-new roof was installed, providing the perfect foundation for the solar system.
“In addition to the solar array, as part of the whole project we added a new roof to our main workshop, greatly improving the efficiency of the building. This part of the project was also handled by Insolation Solar, which for me was ideal as it saved project managing separate suppliers or having any complications between roof & solar panel installations.” – Dan Hughes, Owner of Hughes Print

Before
Harnessing Solar Power for a Sustainable Future
With the new roof in place, 79 high-performance LONGI solar panels were installed. This upgrade not only enabled Hughes Print to significantly reduce their carbon footprint but also supported their commitment to Net Zero initiatives. The transition to renewable energy is a win-win for both the environment and the business.
“I think the building looks great, feels much more comfortable inside with what seems like possibly less than half the heating power to previous, and our 12-month energy quote that has just been proposed based on our new power usage has reduced significantly.” – Dan Hughes, Owner of Hughes Print

After
Client Testimonial: A Bright Future Ahead
A big thank you to all at Insolation Solar for their efforts throughout our project. For someone who isn’t an expert in solar PV, I found their advice on our install to be knowledgeable and the approach relaxed, which allowed us to consider things properly and make the right decision for us.
As we made use of a Net Zero Carbon grant scheme, there were a few boxes to tick which we were well supported by them with throughout. I spoke to a lot of people who all knew their stuff but ultimately found Insolation Solar in the front running. They’re local to our site, which is important to us, and had other recent and local installations which gave us confidence of a successful project.
It’s excellent for the business both as a financial exercise and to reinforce our sustainability ethos. – Dan Hughes, Owner of Hughes Print
