Bay Shore, N.Y.-based Snake Tray is extremely proud to announce that it has officially gone off the power grid and now manufactures all of its products by using solar energy generated by hundreds of photovoltaic (PV) panels on top of the roof of its U.S. factory. Snake Tray is the first carbon zero manufacturer in the electrical industry. Snake Tray expects to produce 100% of its load and 120% of its energy consumption annually.

“We are committed to providing our customers with cost-effective green products for cable management and power distributions, and as a company we want to practice green principles in the way we operate. This is a giant step towards achieving this goal”, says, Roger Jette, president of Snake Tray.

In conjunction with this green initiative, Snake Tray is introducing two lines of solar products including the new Solar Snake Tray, the all-weather hand bendable cable conveyance system, as well as industrial and residential solar panel mounting racks.
