Jean-Baptiste Loiselet wanted to go on a 100 percent autonomous tour of France in a glider. He thus launched the ‘Wings for the Planet’ project. He imagined a glider fitted with solar panels on its wings. Ideally, these panels would provide him with energy to take off autonomously every day. After months of testing the solar panels, it was time to think about their preservation. Lightness, thinness and high UV protection were the constraints that had to be met by the selected protection for the panels. Protecting the wings of the glider holding the solar panels was an imperative for the sustainability of the journey.
Renowned for the quality of its self-adhesive films, HEXIS was able to provide Jean-Baptiste with the best solution: a clear protective film was chosen for the wings of the glider. The clear self-adhesive film selected guarantees the longevity of the solar panels, all without altering their primary purpose: to capture solar energy. The technical properties of the self-adhesive protection film give it an unrivalled performance. This is the guarantee for an optimal result. In addition to not weighing down the glider, the clear self-adhesive film is very easy to clean.
