Type Approved Solar Screens

Solarglide's cassette and non-cassette solar screens are anti-glare sunscreens for ship navigational bridges, cruise liners, ferries, commercial vessels, military craft, accommodation modules and offshore cranes. All Solarglide sunscreen blinds are Lloyd's Register Type Approved; the company states it was the first in the world to obtain Type Approval for marine solar screens.

Key features

• Lloyd's Register Type Approval covering durability, visual light transmission, heat and glare reduction and SOLAS compliance
• Every model manually retractable and removable without tools
• Fully clears the window when not in use
• Cassette and non-cassette versions

Performance

A collaboration with Newcastle University reported that the screens block 55% of solar radiation and can reduce bridge cooling demand by up to 40%.

Applications

Navigational bridges and wheelhouses on cruise liners such as Disney Wonder, Celebrity Apex and Jewel of the Seas, ferries, commercial and military vessels, accommodation modules and offshore cranes.
