Solar Solve increases SOLASAFE® Guarantee to 7 Years

Mon, 11 February 2013


Solar Solve Marine, the South Shields manufacturer of SOLASOLV® anti-glare, heat rejecting roller screens for ships’ navigation bridge and control room windows, is delighted to announce that it has increased the guarantee period of SOLASAFE® screens from 5 to 7 years.
Julie Lightfoot MBE, Solar Solve’s Managing Director commented, “In today’s competitive, value conscious market manufacturers need to earn buyer confidence and trust.  For a company that continually achieves excellence it is difficult to improve, however, we are never complacent and decided to look at the 5 year guarantee we already offered for the SOLASAFE® product.” 

“Market research was carried out and we found that some end users continue to benefit from perfectly acceptable SOLASAFE® screens that have been installed and regularly used for 10 years or more.  Therefore it seemed logical to upgrade the guarantee to 7 years, which we know as a result of the market research will easily stand up to the challenge.  Delivering any product or service is never risk free, but increasing our guarantee gives customers another good reason to choose SOLASAFE® over similar products that don’t have the same record of quality and reliability.”

“A manufacturer’s rock solid, factory-backed guarantee confirms the reliability and effectiveness of its products, and ensures peace of mind for customers.   We always try to exceed our customer’s expectations so a 7 year guarantee against faulty workmanship and defective materials is another compelling reason to purchase the SOLASAFE® brand.   In the unlikely event that a SOLASAFE® product fails it will be replaced completely free of charge.” 
The company, originally established in 1975, changed its name to Solar Solve in 1988 and moved into the marine market after developing the SOLASAFE® cassette roller screen. Since it was designed the original product has been improved over the years by sourcing the very best component manufacturers and listening to customer requirements.
SOLASAFE® roller screens are installed at the windows of ships, rigs and cranes of all types and sizes worldwide. They reject up to 87% of heat and up to 93% of glare from the sun.  Eye-strain is significantly reduced ensuring computer displays are easier to read, and a completely clear outward view is maintained for safer navigation and operations.  A more ambient room temperature ensures the crew have a comfortable working environment and are less prone to fatigue which can lead to human errors. Suitable for newbuilds and retrofits, SOLASAFE® roller screens are Type Approved by Lloyds, ABS and DNV.
Regarded as the world’s brand leading roller screen, SOLASAFE® have a minimum life expectancy of ten years and are now backed with the very best guarantee on the market.
