PV Encapsulation Materials
The materials that decide whether a module reaches year 25
Backsheets, EVA / EPE / POE films, fluoropolymer films and soft glass, produced at 100 million m² a year and certified to TÜV Rheinland IEC 62788-2-1:2023.
Lightweight PV Solutions
Over 70% lighter than glass, so the roof stops being the problem
2.9 kg/m² at 1.8 mm, bending to a 0.3 m radius, fixed with structural adhesive — no drilling, no hot work, no structural retrofit.
PV System Products
Modules, inverters and storage, matched before they ship
High-efficiency modules from 445 W to 710 W, microinverters for residential and C&I roofs, storage for microgrids and backup — plus turnkey EPC.

What we make
Three product lines, one material platform
A module lives or dies on its encapsulation. Hondol develops that chemistry, manufactures it at scale, and then builds the lightweight modules and complete systems that only become possible once you own it.
PV System Products
Modules, inverters, storage and EPC service delivered as one matched package, so system compatibility stops being your problem.
Lightweight PV Solutions
Over 70% lighter than glass modules, so roofs that were written off as non-load-bearing become generating assets.
PV Encapsulation Materials
Backsheets and encapsulant films produced at 100 million m² a year for module manufacturers who are judged on 25-year warranties.
Selected products
Where most enquiries start
Eight of the 30 products in the catalogue, chosen because they cover the decisions that come up most: backsheet construction, encapsulant chemistry, and how light a module can get before something has to give.
HD-CPC-TGW / HD-CPC-TGB
Transparent Grid Black/White
1% to 2% more annual energy yield, over 15% less weight, and no light leakage.

About Hondol
A materials company that decided to build the modules too
Hondol Material was founded in September 2021 and had its Phase I production base running by March 2022. By June that year it was a qualified supplier to leading module manufacturers; by August 2023 the Phase II line — two coating lines and four grid backsheet lines — took annual capacity to 100 million m².
The reason the range now runs all the way to finished lightweight modules and complete PV systems is that the encapsulation technology made them possible. Once a front film, a prepreg and a strengthened backsheet can replace glass, a whole class of roof, canopy and vehicle becomes addressable — and the company that owns the chemistry is the one that can qualify it.
- 10+ years of expertiseA decade in photovoltaics, from encapsulation chemistry through to finished systems.
- Global resource integrationModules, inverters and storage selected from top-tier suppliers and matched into one package.
- Innovation-driven technologyDevelopment aimed at three directions: functionalisation, thinning and decarbonisation.
- Full-service supportTechnical support, flexible business models and end-to-end project service.
Applications
Where these materials end up
Lightweight construction is not a specification detail — it is what decides whether a site can be built on at all. These are the seven that come up most.
Utility-Scale Solar Plants
Backsheets and encapsulants qualified for 1500 V PERC and TOPCon modules shipping by the gigawatt.
Commercial & Industrial Rooftops
For roofs that cannot take 11 kg/m² of glass, and owners who cannot take the downtime of a structural retrofit.
Agricultural Greenhouses
Generating structures that still have to let a crop grow underneath them.
BIPV & Pneumatic Structures
Photovoltaics that have to answer to an architect before they answer to an engineer.
Solar Carports & Gas Stations
Long spans, public footfall and hail — with charging load underneath.
Automotive-Integrated PV
Vehicle-roof modules qualified for vibration, salt spray and a 250,000 km life.

Read more →Frequently asked
What does Hondol actually manufacture?
Four product lines: photovoltaic backsheets, encapsulation films, soft glass and fluoropolymer films, made at the Suzhou base with an annual backsheet capacity of 100 million m². The lightweight modules and complete PV systems are built on those materials.
Do you sell materials, finished modules, or both?
Both. Module manufacturers buy the backsheets and encapsulant films; project developers buy finished lightweight modules or a complete matched system with inverters, storage and EPC service.
What certification do the backsheets hold?
Hondol Material was among the first group of companies awarded TÜV Rheinland IEC 62788-2-1:2023 certification for photovoltaic module front sheets and backsheets — the first international standard written specifically for these products.
How much lighter are the lightweight modules?
Over 70% lighter than traditional glass modules. The flexible 520 W module is 1.8 mm thick and 2.9 kg/m², which is under 30% of a conventional glass module.
Is there an enquiry form on this site?
No. Every call to action opens an email with the product name already in the subject line, so your enquiry stays in a thread you control rather than in a ticketing system you cannot see.
Where do you ship from?
The Suzhou manufacturing base in Jiangsu, China, and PT. Hondol Material Indonesia in Batam, Kepulauan Riau for customers served from Indonesia.
