Navigating the Seas: Crystal Display Systems Delivers Certified Maritime Display Solutions

We Partner with the best so we can offer the best

Crystal Display Systems (CDS) is proud to expand its technological expertise into the maritime industry with a specialised range of Certified Maritime Display Solutions. By partnering with leading marine-grade display manufacturers, CDS is strengthening its commitment to delivering mission-critical Human–Machine Interface (HMI) solutions built to perform flawlessly in the harshest ocean environments.

Built to Endure the Elements

Maritime environments challenge even the most advanced technologies. Bridge consoles, navigation systems, and ship control rooms must operate under extreme conditions — from salt spray and vibration to intense humidity and fluctuating light levels. In these scenarios, reliability is everything.

That’s where CDS’s Harsh Environment Monitor family excels. These certified maritime displays are designed for maximum resilience, offering:

  • High brightness levels for clear readability in sunlit deck environments.

  • Optical bonding to eliminate reflections and improve contrast.

  • Anti-glare and anti-corrosion coatings for long-term visibility and durability.

  • Wide input voltage ranges and EMC filtering to ensure stable operation in marine electrical systems.

  • Optional PCAP touch functionality for intuitive, glove-friendly control.

Each display is purpose-built for marine use, meeting stringent DNV and IEC certification standards.

Engineering Excellence Meets Maritime Demands

CDS brings decades of expertise in rugged TFT display modules, touchscreen integration, and custom optical bonding. By incorporating these proven technologies into our Certified Maritime Display Solutions, we can support shipyards, system integrators, and vessel operators with confidence.

From panel-mount marine monitors to large control-room glass panels, every display is engineered to withstand the rigours of sea life while delivering crystal-clear performance where it matters most.

Why Certification Matters

In the maritime world, certification isn’t just a formality — it’s proof of performance. CDS displays meet key standards such as DNV, IEC, and IP65 waterproof ratings, verifying their resilience against saltwater exposure, electrical interference, and extreme temperatures.

Technical refinements like optical bonding and wide voltage tolerance ensure reliable operation despite power fluctuations aboard ships, while EMC protection shields the display from electrical noise common in marine environments.

Expanding Our Reach at Sea

This strategic move into maritime technology is a natural evolution for Crystal Display Systems. Having long served industrial and embedded sectors, CDS now extends its rugged display expertise to vessels, offshore platforms, and naval control centres.

Our Certified Maritime Display Solutions combine engineering strength with full design customisation and after-sales support — delivering complete, display-centric systems for marine and offshore applications.

What’s Next

In the coming months, CDS will release:

  • New marine-focused product pages

  • Technical case studies on optical bonding and EMI hardening

  • Demonstration units for shipyards and systems integrators

These resources will help industry professionals understand how our Certified Maritime Display Solutions enhance reliability, safety, and performance across marine environments.


Crystal Display Systems now proudly sails into the maritime domain — combining rugged display innovation, certified reliability, and engineering expertise to serve an industry where clarity, resilience, and uptime are non-negotiable.
