AOur factory is ISO 9001 accredited by Det Norske Veritas (DNV) and all our window and maritime blinds are delivered with a 5-year warranty as standard. Our anti-glare maritime blinds are approved by American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) and our films independently tested by a UKAS approved test house. This guarantees the quality of the film and separates us from inferior quality films available from other maritime blinds suppliers.
Our spring-operated blinds have a damper in the mechanism that provides a controlled cushioned mechanism when the blind retracts inside the cassette. This prevents the bottom rail from colliding into the cassette and over time, becoming damaged. The speed of retraction can also be adjusted externally even after the blind is installed. A neat feature unique to Sola-Cure.

3rd party UKAS approved testing
As part of our type of approval process, Sola-Cure tests every new batch of film against the calculated data provided by the film manufacturer. This is important in ensuring compliance of the product as advertised. Where calculated data suggests for example, the film provides 90% glare reduction, we believe it important to test the film independently and certify it as such. Testing the film clarifies the quality of the product. Below is an example of test results from a recent batch of our best-selling film; Grey/Silver.

We see that in this example the film exceeded the calculated data. This batch of film was accepted through our QA process for manufacture. Films that do not comply with the calculated data are rejected as unsuitable for the clients’ purpose. We encourage clients to ask for certified test data before ordering blinds and in doing so, ensure the blinds will protect crew and staff as expected.
IMPA CODED: APPROVED MARINE BLINDS
Our blinds fully adhere to the IMPA codes for marine blinds, including IMPA 150721 and IMPA 150722. The former features a spring mechanism that quickly retracts the blind into its housing case with a short pull, while the latter typically employs a chain retraction mechanism for the same purpose. Both blinds are grouped under the code IMPA 150713 as Blinder Rollers.
