Aikon® glazing solutions offer unparalleled flexibility in yacht and boat design. These advanced plastic materials can be thermoformed and CNC-machined to achieve the precise shapes and sizes required for modern yacht aesthetics. Whether you aim for sleek, continuous lines or bold, angular designs, UV and scratch resistant Aikon® PMMA makes it possible to bring your vision to life.
Larger windows and custom-shaped portholes contribute to a yacht’s luxurious feel, providing passengers with breathtaking views and an enhanced sense of space. The ability to design without the limitations imposed by tempered glass opens up new horizons in yacht aesthetics.
One of the most significant advantages of Aikon® glazing solutions is the ease of installation. Windows made of tempered glass on yachts are heavy and brittle, posing challenges during the installation process. Tempered glass windows are not only prone to breakage, but also their weight complicates handling, often leading to longer installation times and higher labour costs.
Windows made of Aikon® PMMA, on the other hand, are designed to overcome these challenges. The high impact resistance and lightweight nature of Aikon® PMMA AR make them much easier to install. This means fewer risks of damage during installation and a substantial reduction in time—up to 50%—compared to tempered glass. For yacht builders and owners, this translates into significant cost savings and faster project completion times.
Aikon® yacht glazing solutions are a game-changer in the realm of yacht design and shipbuilding. By combining innovative materials with advanced manufacturing techniques, Aikon® allows designers to create stunning, functional glazing components that enhance both the beauty and performance. The ease of installation not only reduces costs but also accelerates the build process, making Aikon® the ideal choice for modern yacht projects.
Whether designing a new yacht or upgrading an existing one, Aikon® glazing solutions offer the perfect blend of form, function, and practicality. Elevate your yacht design with Aikon® and experience the difference that advanced glazing technology can make.
