A highway glare screen is an ideal solution for one of the most significant problems of night driving: the reflections of car headlights towards the opposing driver.
This can lead to a lack of clear vision of the road and sometimes cause the driver to lose control of the steering wheel, potentially leading to undesirable outcomes, especially on multi-lane roads.
Consequently, Shawahid Industrial Roads Co. has innovated anti glare highway to reduce the light reflections from the opposite lanes into the drivers’ eyes.
The Highway Glare Screen is an advanced road safety solution designed to reduce headlight glare from oncoming vehicles on divided highways and expressways. Installed on highway medians and barrier systems, it improves nighttime visibility and helps drivers maintain clear vision under low-light conditions.
Manufactured from high-quality UV-resistant polymer materials, the Highway Glare Screen is engineered to withstand harsh weather, extreme temperatures, strong winds, and continuous outdoor exposure. It provides long-term durability with minimal maintenance requirements.
By reducing visual distraction caused by opposing vehicle headlights, Highway Glare Screens contribute to safer driving, fewer nighttime accidents, and improved traffic flow on high-speed roads.
Applications of Highway Glare Screens
Anti Glare Barrier is easily installed on median barriers, whether steel or concrete, on two-way roads by securing each piece with bolts.
They absorb the light emitted from car headlights on one side of the highway on multi-lane highways, preventing the light from passing through and reaching drivers on the opposite side, providing them with a clear view of the road without distraction.
Highway Glare Screens are commonly installed in locations where headlight glare affects driver visibility, including:
• Divided highways
• Expressways
• High-speed road networks
• Urban highways
• Bridge medians
• Concrete barrier systems
• Steel guardrail medians
• Mountain roads
• Curved highway sections
• Tunnel approaches

How Highway Glare Screens Improve Road Safety?
Headlight glare from oncoming traffic is one of the leading causes of reduced nighttime visibility. Road Glare Barrier act as a physical visual barrier that blocks direct headlight beams while maintaining airflow and road visibility.
The system reduces temporary blindness, driver fatigue, and reaction delays, allowing motorists to maintain better lane control and safer driving conditions during nighttime travel.
