Services
Anti-Glare Blinds
Our anti-glare blinds use patented film technology to reduce sun glare by up to 97%, enhancing visibility for bridge navigation. These ABS-approved blinds protect crew from UV exposure while maintaining instrument readability. The durable construction withstands harsh marine conditions, ensuring long-term performance on commercial vessels and yachts.
Blackout Blinds
Custom-manufactured blackout blinds create light-controlled environments for rest and privacy in cabins and passenger areas. Available in fire-retardant materials meeting MED standards, these blinds feature anti-microbial coatings to inhibit germ spread. They provide complete darkness for improved sleep quality and screen visibility in maritime and land-based applications.
Eyebrow Covers
Engineered eyebrow window covers provide glare control for irregular-shaped skylights on bridges and wheelhouses. These removable, SOLAS-compliant covers maintain visibility while blocking harmful glare. The flexible design adapts to curved surfaces and features quick-release mechanisms for easy installation and removal during navigation.
3D Modelling
Our engineering team offers advanced 3D modelling services for blind integration into vessel designs. Using CAD software, we create precise renderings and animations to optimise window coverage. This service supports both new builds and retrofit projects, ensuring perfect fit and functionality with existing bridge layouts.
Custom Parts
In-house 3D printing capabilities enable production of bespoke blind components for unique installation requirements. We manufacture parts in over 200 materials to solve specific engineering challenges. This service ensures tailored solutions for complex mounting situations while maintaining the same quality standards as our standard products.
