LightManufacturing Inc Surpasses 700 Solar-Molded Water Tanks in Hawaii
LightManufacturing Inc announces a significant achievement in sustainable manufacturing with the production of its 700th water tank using solar-thermal rotational molding technology. The firm operates its flagship molding site in Kailua-Kona, supplying tanks for the Big Island as well as the rest of the Hawaiian archipelago.

Kailua-Kona, Hawaii - LightManufacturing Inc announces a significant achievement in sustainable manufacturing with the production of its 700th water tank using solar-thermal rotational molding technology. The firm operates its flagship molding site in Kailua-Kona, supplying tanks for the Big Island as well as the rest of the Hawaiian archipelago.

A leader in solar-thermal technology, LightManufacturing harnesses the power of the sun to provide sustainable heating for various applications, ranging from water heating, plastic molding and recycling, and even nut and seed roasting.    The firm’s sun-tracking mirrors called heliostats can concentrate thousands of watts of solar energy, replacing the need to burn fossil fuels for heat. 

Water tanks play a crucial role in the rainwater catchment systems essential in many neighborhoods on the Big Island.  Residents rely on these systems for their daily water supply due to limited access to municipal water. The tanks collect and store rainwater, ensuring a sustainable and independent household water source.

Brandon Puccini, Engineering Manager at LightManufacturing Inc, shares, "Reaching this production milestone showcases our team's dedication and skill. Our technology not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions but also provides essential products for our Hawaiian customers at competitive prices."

The rotational molding process involves heating plastic in a hollow mold as it rotates on two axes. This process evenly distributes the melted plastic, creating durable and long-lasting tanks.   While traditional rotomolding emits more than a pound of greenhouse emissions for every pound of plastic, LightManufacturing's patented 'Solar Rotational Molding' (SRM) process eliminates 100% of these molding emissions.  LightManufacturing uses only FDA-compliant food-grade plastics in its water tanks, with safe long-lasting pigments and UV stabilizers to ensure long life in the Hawaiian sun.

The firm sees tremendous need for sustainable manufacturing technologies, and is committed to serving the needs of customers in Hawaii and beyond.
