    Smart technologies and lightweight materials

    In yachts and boats, weight is a very important factor. Wind deflectors, cabin windows, and sunroofs form large surfaces that affect the total weight of a yacht or boat. Our solutions, transparent Aikon® PC and PMMA plastic sheets, offer an excellent combination of lightness and safety for yacht glazing. In addition, with our high-quality production, premium technologies such as shading, and info displays can be integrated to our glazing products.

    Plastic glazing offers many advantages over other materials

    Aikon® glazing solutions provide premium quality to cabin or deck windows, sunroofs, display screens, and wind deflectors. Our glazing is designed and produced to meet the specific customer requirements. Glazing solutions, manufactured from high-performance plastics, have high optical quality and their light weight help improving the energy efficiency of a yacht or boat. In addition, plastic glazing is a safe and durable solution as they have high impact strength, UV-resistance, and abrasion resistance. Also, Aikon® glazing has a low carbon footprint in aitstotal lifecycle compared to glass.

    Production methods

    Hard coated glazing has improved resistance to UV-radiation

    Yacht and boat glazing are exposed to strong UV-radiation at sea. Therefore, the UV resistance of glazing materials is an essential requirement. Hard coated high-performance plastics meet this requirement as the coating significantly improves weather resistance, creating high resistance to UV-radiation.

    Laminating creates new opportunities to glazing solutions

    A laminated plastic sheet is a structure in which acrylic or polycarbonate sheets alternate with TPU films. The layered structure improves the sheet’s impact strength without compromising the transparency of the material. In the laminating process smart technologies such as shading films can be integrated to a glazing.

    Smart glazing takes your yacht to a new level


    Shading films, transparent displays and heated windows can be integrated into glazing solutions. With shading films, dimming features allow control how much light enters to a space. Custom shading creates a comfortable experience to use a marine vehicle. In addition, shading films allow light to be optimized by utilizing natural light for energy savings and ambiance, and shade during peak hours for cooling and solar control.

    Customed shading creates comfort

    Polycarbonate or acrylic windows can be laminated with Gauzy SPD shading films, which allow the window shade to be adjusted at the touch of a button. Enjoy ocean and sky views without strong light reflection and glare in cabin, bridge, and deck windows. Laminated shading films offer dynamic shading and temperature control.

    Dynamic privacy with PDLC smart film

    Laminating Gauzy PDLC smart film enables dynamic light control by instantly switching transparent window to opaque. The film creates complete privacy or transparency when it is needed. It is an excellent solution for indoor and outdoor glazing. Opaque smart film enables optimizing space and it can be used for projection platforms.

    More information with transparent displays

    Transparent displays connect physical and digital to provide dynamic information of an environment or a yacht, for example. They can be laminated into glazing to turn windows into interactive displays. The display does not affect the optical properties of the window. Thus, manufacturers can build safer yachts and boats.
