After making initial contact shortly before the start of Intersolar 2011 in San Francisco, California. Cantsink President, Patrick Hutchinson and Sunstall President, Helge Biernath, began talks to consider creating a strategic alliance on ground-mounted photovoltaic projects. During these conversations, it became increasingly evident that the two companies could very easily work in tandem to greatly increase the productivity and marketability of each firm, resulting in a cost-effective offering to the customers.
Cantsink Manufacturing, a manufacturer of steel helical piles from Lilburn, Georgia, has had increasing success on the Eastern Seaboard of the US, but had very little exposure and capability to have its product installed in the Western United States. The use of helical piles for PV installations, offers a quick, effective and environmentally friendly means of supporting ground mounted solar structures. Helical piles provide an effective alternative to driven steel piles and concrete foundations.
Sunstall Inc, a California corporation, offers extensive knowledge in installing ground mount utility solar projects. Experienced in the execution, management, and coordination of construction, Sunstall is able to offer a key piece of capability, nationwide, expanding the service offering of Cantsink Manufacturing. Sunstall is able to coordinate and manage project installations from coast to coast, effectively. Using Cantsink’s products and Sunstall’s installation capability, the two companies can now offer services that will guarantee a superbly engineered project that will be installed quickly, competently and will stand the tests of time.

To whom it may concern;
I wish to express my sincere gratitude to, and share my positive thoughts regarding our interactions with Sunstall Inc.
We were awarded a contract to construct the Baldock Solar Highway PV project located at the Baldock Rest Area just south of Portland, Oregon. Three years in planning, this 1.75 megawatt project is the largest Solar project on a public highway right of way in the nation.
In July 2011 were finally given a notice to proceed. The timeline called for milestones that would push us to make the project deadline. A supplier gave us the name of Sunstall as a possible sub‐contractor that could manage the pile‐driving and racking assembly.
