What Are Marine & Navigation Lights?

Marine & Navigation Lights are specialized lighting fixtures designed for marine vessels and offshore environments. They ensure visibility, communication, and safety at sea by:

Indicating vessel position, direction, and status
Preventing collisions
Assisting docking and maneuvering
Providing illumination on decks, cabins, and offshore sites

These lights are typically weatherproof, salt-resistant, vibration-proof, and corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for New Zealand’s coastal and offshore waters.
