- SOLASAFE (with cassette)
The SOLASAFE® product remains one of our most popular products. It has been fitted on tens of thousands of ships, in Air Traffic Control towers worldwide, in the cabs of tower-cranes, anywhere where glare and heat need to be controlled and clear visibility is critical for operational safety.
The US Coastguards and the Royal Navy rely on them, when scanning the horizon to identify ‘unknown’ vessels. Air traffic controllers use them, as they instruct pilots to manoeuvre passenger jets around some of the busiest airports in the world. Captains of cruise ships insist on SOLASAFE®, as do excavator and dumper truck drivers working in hot, open-cast mines. In cities around the world, high above busy construction sites, experienced operators of tower-cranes rely on SOLASAFE® to reduce dangerous glare and give them a clear field of vision.
Wherever safety depends on uninterrupted visibility, unaffected by the sudden, blinding threat of glare, SOLASAFE® does the job. It also reduces excessive heat and reduces long-term damage caused by UV light. It is the only screen to have been awarded four marine type approvals; ABS, DNV, Lloyds Register and RINA. It is specified by many national airport authorities. Construction industry professionals insist on it, by name.
One of the key benefits is that as the screen is retracted any dirt or dust is removed by the ‘wipe clean’ brush system, inside the aluminium cassette. All screens come complete with aluminium bottom rail and optional side channels or guide cables and include a 7-Year Guarantee. Wherever light, glare and heat need to be controlled, and where the permanent application of adhesive window film is either unsightly or unsuitable SOLASAFE® is the answer.

Benefits of SOLASAFE® sunscreens
Improved visibility and safety
Up to a 93% reduction in glare. With true colour rendition objects such as navigation markers can be identified more clearly.
A cooler working environment
Up to 87% of the sun’s heat is rejected so the traditional ‘hot-house’ effect of working behind glass is significantly reduced. Crew and controllers remain more comfortable and alert.
Reduction in AC requirements
As incoming glare and heat are reduced, the temperature is lowered and therefore the need for air conditioning. Owners benefit from lower AC fuel costs.
Reduced eye strain
With glare greatly reduced, electronic charts, dashboards, radar screens and control panels are easier to read.
Protect exposed areas of the body
At least 98% of harmful UV light is filtered; skin is protected.

Up to 81% in power cost savings per year can be made for larger vessels.
