Cantsink was founded in 1988 in Georgia as an installer of foundation supports. Cantsink expanded its range of products/services as the solar industry grew, becoming a recognized national leader. With over 100,000 sq. ft net zero solar operated facility, Cantsink manufactures and installs helical piles to support heavy equipment onsite including battery storage, transformer pads/skids, inverter pads/skids, and more. In 2013, Cantsink began offering driven beam installation services along with providing domestic i-beam material and other steel parts (inverter caps, steel pipe, i-beams, helical piles). Cantsink also offers pull-testing services with crews traveling across the country. In 2014, Brilliant Rack, its signature fixed-tilt racking system was born. Next, Centric was launched, a mounting system for string inverters, creating a complete, turnkey, solar product line. With a full staff of engineers, Cantsink continues to design, create and install new offerings for solar.
