Maibach

Anti-glare system

DIN 12676 certified

The anti-glare system of MAIBACH improves night visibility on roads where drivers are dazzled by cars or other light sources coming from  the opposite direction. Anti-glare installations lead to a remarkable reduction  of accident rates. Development and first tests in practice and wind tunnels started in the mid-sixties. Following, the MAIBACH anti-glare system has been installed extensively in Germany and throughout  Europe.

For many years, we have been official representative of the German industry in the European Committee for Standardization CEN/TC 226, and we have been essentially involved in the outline of DIN EN 12676.

MAIBACH anti-glare systems can be installed either according to category 1 (open passage at every place) or category 2 (no passage possible. This can be useful in urban areas, in order to prevent pedestrians from crossing the road). 

Examples of applications

Anti-glare systems are generally recommendable in all places where drivers shall be protected from dazzling lights. Usually, they are installed in the following areas:
