Naval – Enhancing Operational Efficiency on Navy Ships
Introduction: Naval vessels operate in extreme environments where sun glare and heat can impact operational efficiency. Ensuring clear visibility for navigation and creating a comfortable environment for crew members is vital for mission success. SOLASOLV® screens provide an advanced solution for navy ships, addressing both safety and comfort concerns.
The Challenge: A European navy reported operational challenges due to:
- Intense sun glare impairing visibility from navigation bridges.
- Excessive glare and reflections on bridge equipment and charts making them difficult to read.
- Heat buildup inside control rooms and living quarters, causing discomfort to personnel.
- Exposure to UV rays accelerating equipment degradation.
The Solution: The navy implemented SOLASOLV® anti-glare and heat-reducing screens on their fleet to:
- Significantly reduce glare, ensuring better visibility for navigation teams.
- Lower heat absorption, improving crew comfort in working and resting areas.
- Shield sensitive equipment from UV damage, prolonging service life.
Results:
- Enhanced Operational Safety: Navigation teams reported clearer visibility in bright daylight conditions. Glare and reflections were also significantly reduced.
- Crew Comfort and Productivity: Cooler interior environments improved morale and operational efficiency.
- Reduced Equipment Wear: UV-blocking properties extended the life of onboard electronics and furnishings.
- Energy Savings: Lower reliance on cooling systems led to a reduction in energy consumption.
Conclusion: SOLASOLV® anti-glare and heat-reducing screens have proven to be invaluable across multiple industries, from aviation to naval operations. By addressing key challenges such as glare reduction, heat control, and UV protection, these solutions contribute to safer and more efficient operations. Whether enhancing air traffic controller visibility or improving navigational safety at sea, SOLASOLV® continues to be a trusted choice for transportation professionals worldwide.
