[](https://www.powerfilmsolar.com/) - [Products](https://www.powerfilmsolar.com/products) - Foldables Fabric-integrated thin-film modules deliver dependable portable power through repeated folding, transport, and field use. ## Field-Ready by Design Fabric-integrated thin-film modules provide dependable portable power in demanding field conditions. ## Benefits #### **Fabric Integration** Reduced system weight for transport and setup. #### **Lightweight Design** Thin-film construction improves impact resistance. #### **Rapid Deployment** Folds compactly for fast field setup and teardown. #### **Field Durability** Built for repeated deployment in demanding environments. ### Portable. Durable. Mission-Ready. Reinforced fabric-integrated modules deliver reliable power in mobile field operations. ### Built for Harsh Environments Non-glass thin-film construction resists cracking and impact, maintaining output in unpredictable conditions. ### Optimized for Mobile Power Systems Supports portable battery charging and auxiliary power applications without excess weight or bulk. ## Key Features - **Fabric-Integrated Solar Assembly:** Reinforced for repeated folding. - **Thin-Film, Non-Glass Modules:** Impact resistance by design. - **Lightweight Architecture:** Reduces transport weight. - **Compact Folding Format:** Enables rapid deployment. - **Weather-Resistant Materials:** Built for outdoor exposure. - **U.S.-Based Production:** Manufactured in the USA. ## Best For - **Portable Power Systems:** Rapid-deploy field energy. - **Remote Operations:** Off-grid auxiliary power. - **Mobile Platforms:** On-the-move charging. - **Backup Systems:** Contingency power support. - **Field Equipment:** Lightweight field power. - **Custom Integrations:** Fabric-based solar builds. ## Deployable Field Power > We exclusively use PowerFilm Solar products when producing Eye of the Hunter™ in remote locations all over the world. We have tried a variety of products from other manufacturers, but hands down, our most reliable solar charging systems come from PowerFilm Solar. Their products are lightweight, durable, and most importantly, keep our camera batteries charged in just about any weather conditions. Tom Opre Eye of the Hunter > We picked up the 60 Watt panel for those times when we are in camp for more than a night and need to keep our deep-cycle battery charged. We don't typically camp in a location for more than one night, so our deep-cycle battery is charged while we drive. We liked the panel because of how compact it was when stored yet could provide enough power for our needs. The panel has worked flawlessly for the last four years. It has been stepped on, driven over, and submerged in rain/snow (Overland Expo 2015) and kept on working. Beau Johnston Editor in Chief, Toyota Cruisers & Trucks Magazine > We have been using PowerFilm foldable solar panels (60W and 90W) in the Peruvian Andes for several years now to charge a variety of different batteries. At elevations above 5,000 m, solar irradiance is high, yet storms can occur at any time of year. The ability to fold panels up during snowstorms or high winds prevents systems from damage and makes the panels much easier to carry on horses!
