Trailing Suction Hopper Dredgers

Blinds for ships with Solarglide

Solarglide Limited has been selected to supply 54 SG GLIDER sunscreens to two new build ‘Trailing Suction Hopper Dredgers’ due for sea trails March 2016.

SG GLIDER solar screens help to reduce glare by up to 93%, reject up to 83% of the sun's energy and virtually eliminate UV radiation.

Trailing suction hopper dredgers are used to maintain navigable waterways, to deepen maritime canals that are threatened to become silted, to construct new land elsewhere or to replace sand eroded by storms or wave action on the beaches. This is made possible by large powerful pumps and engines which are able to suck sand, clay, silt and gravel

With summer fast approaching throughout Europe; SG GLIDER screens will keep the crew cool and glare free on the bridge during dredging operations.

We wish both vessels and their crews every success as two of the newest vessels to grace the global oceans. - See more at: http://www.solarglide.com/media/case-studies/trailing-suction-hopper-dredgers#sthash.CCECtiyA.dpuf
