Create a green and attractive car park.

The ever-present climate debate has led increasingly more people to accept responsibility and join efforts to reduce carbon emissions. Car manufacturers are investing heavily to offer new battery-powered models, resulting in huge demand for charging facilities throughout society, whether for homes and workplaces or public environments.
GARO has invested heavily in developing charging stations that can charge all types of cars with great reliability and that are compatible with both our own and other providers’ cloud services and payment systems. This makes investing in charging stations – whether for workplaces or public environments – both easy and flexible.
CHARGING SOLUTIONS FOR EVERY NEED
Over the years, GARO has invested in developing a broad range of charging infrastructure for all types of establishments, businesses and visitors. Employers and business owners alike now have great opportunities to demonstrate environmental responsibility alongside excellent customer care by offering charging for electric and hybrid vehicle owners.

WE SHOULDER RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ENTIRE INSTALLATION
In addition to offering flexible charging solutions, here at GARO we always strive to make things easy for electricians, charging station owners and electric and hybrid vehicle drivers. Larger charging infrastructure installations require a cable cabinet to source and distribute power to the various charging stations in a smart and cost-effective manner. To this end, GARO offers pre-assembled cable cabinets designed for e-mobility solutions as well as accessories such as posts, bases and wall brackets to ensure the smoothest possible installation. Quite simply, the perfect turnkey solution for charging stations for workplaces and other environments requiring large amounts of power over short periods of time.

Combinations to suit every visitor.

To create an attractive workplace or short-stay car park, here at GARO we recommend combining different types of charging stations that appeal to different types of visitors. For example, a shopping centre car park sees a wide variety of customers throughout the day. Everyone from people popping in for a quick visit through shoppers staying for a longer browse to staff who are there for the entire working day.
So, when investing in charging stations for your car park, combining different types of charging stations to meet various visitors needs can be a smart move. Perhaps you run a business where the majority of visitors stay for only a short while? In that a case, most of the charging stations should probably be fast chargers, combined with a smaller number of AC chargers, to best match your charging system to visitor needs.
