Garic has announced a new partnership with LiNa Energy Ltd to integrate its sustainable batteries into Garic’s Eco Product line of solar-connected remote power and mobile welfare assets. By combining innovative technologies, Garic and LiNa will work together to bring great products to market whilst reducing cost and carbon emissions.

We’re passionate about what we do, and we’re passionate about you, and your work sites. We know the difficulties that can be involved in ensuring that your site has the welfare facilities on-site to stay compliant with all relevant legislation.
