Yachting
In the superyacht and megayacht industry, glazing is not a detail but an integral part of design, safety, and project execution. It influences regulatory compliance, weight, tolerances, aesthetics, and overall feasibility, while errors often only become apparent at a late stage and are costly to rectify. This requires specialists who oversee and control the entire glazing process.
RAFA Shipwindows & Marineglass supports shipyards worldwide in delivering certified and reliable glazing solutions. RAFA operates across vessels from approximately 24 metres up to the highest superyacht class, where CE-based solutions are no longer sufficient and classification requirements from Lloyd’s Register, American Bureau of Shipping, Bureau Veritas, and DNV are leading.
We translate regulations and design requirements into feasible and safe end results; from strength calculations and weight optimisation to manufacturability, logistics, and onboard installation. By approaching the entire process; engineering, certification, 3D measurement, production supervision, and installation, as one integrated system, risks are identified at an early stage and projects remain controlled. This reduces uncertainty and builds confidence within the project team.
