Solar Street Light Middle East 2030 Vision: The GCC Mega-Project Procurement Guide (2026–2027)

Written by Linda Zhang, SUNDE Export Team — 14 years OEM/ODM experience in solar & LED lighting. Last updated: August 2026.

The Gulf Cooperation Council is executing the most capital-intensive infrastructure program of the 21st century. Saudi Vision 2030 alone anchors NEOM, the Red Sea Project, Diriyah Gate, and Qiddiya — and together with UAE 2031, Qatar National Vision 2030, and the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan, the GCC mega-project pipeline now exceeds US$1.5 trillion. Inside these programs, solar street lighting has moved from pilot trial to formal procurement category: perimeter roads hundreds of kilometres from the grid, heritage walkways that must not be scarred by trenching, and new cities that run entirely on renewable power all require off-grid, zero-emission lighting. This guide is written for tier-1 lighting brands, EPC contractors, system integrators, and government procurement officers who specify, certify, and source solar street lights for 2030 Vision mega-projects. You will find market context, engineering specifications for 50°C+ desert operation, SABER/ESMA/QDB compliance, OEM/ODM customization, three de-identified GCC project cases, and the pitfalls that fail shipments at customs or in the field.

1. Gulf 2030 Vision Market Overview: The $1.5 Trillion Solar Lighting Opportunity

The GCC's 2030 vision programs were never intended as branding exercises — they are binding national strategies with funded, published pipelines. Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 backs giga-projects such as NEOM (the US$500 billion smart-city region on the Red Sea), the Red Sea Project, Diriyah Gate, Qiddiya, and ROSHN's mass residential communities, and the same program now drives the 2034 FIFA World Cup stadium districts. The UAE targets net-zero by 2050, and its Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan will redevelop entire residential zones with pedestrian-first streets; Masdar City remains the region's reference case for sustainable urban lighting. Qatar's Lusail City continues to expand under Qatar National Vision 2030, while Oman Vision 2040, Kuwait Vision 2035, and Bahrain Economic Vision 2030 add coastal-resort and logistics-zone demand across the peninsula.

Industry analysts tracking the Middle East lighting market put the regional solar LED lighting compound annual growth rate at roughly 12–15%, with the street-and-amenity segment growing fastest. Three structural drivers explain this: grid extension costs in desert terrain, government net-zero mandates that rule out diesel generators, and falling LiFePO4 battery and PV module prices that have made off-grid lighting cheaper than trenching and cabling on a whole-life basis. For suppliers the consequence is straightforward — solar street light Middle East 2030 Vision tenders now account for a measurable share of total GCC outdoor lighting spend, and the buyers are no longer small municipalities but sovereign development companies and tier-1 EPCs with formal pre-qualification, certification, and local-content requirements. Understanding that procurement ecosystem is the difference between winning a 2,000-unit framework and watching a competitor take it.

2. Saudi Vision 2030 & UAE 2031: The Mega-Project Solar Lighting Opportunity

If you are a lighting buyer, EPC contractor, or specification engineer reading this in 2026, the single most important fact about the Middle East is that the mega-projects are no longer at concept stage — they are at procurement stage. Saudi Arabia's giga-projects alone represent a multi-hundred-billion-dollar construction pipeline running through the early 2030s, and every one of them contains a solar street light line item. Understanding where the demand sits, and how each project types its specifications differently, determines where you win.

NEOM: The Reference Case for Off-Grid Lighting at Scale

NEOM is the region's most demanding client. Its development regions — The Line (the 170 km linear city), Oxagon (the floating industrial city), Trojena (the mountain ski destination), and Sindalah (the Red Sea island resort) — are connected by perimeter roads, ring roads, tunnels, and pedestrian spines, much of it hundreds of kilometres from the nearest substation. NEOM's sustainability charter requires renewable-powered infrastructure, which effectively excludes grid-fed conventional street lighting for remote sections. Tenders we see from the NEOM procurement ecosystem specify solar street lights with high luminaire efficacy (140 lm/W and above using Lumileds 5050-class LEDs), four-to-five-day battery autonomy, IP66 or IP67 enclosures with IP6X dust-tight sealing, remote monitoring capability, and a 25-year design life with coastal-grade salt resistance. Because NEOM is a greenfield client, its engineers also demand full photometric documentation — IES files, LM-79/LM-80 reports — so every luminaire can be modelled in lighting design software before a single unit ships.

The Red Sea Project and Diriyah Gate: Different Specs, Same Urgency

The Red Sea Project, developed to run on 100% renewable energy, spans 28,000 km² with more than 50 resorts across 22 islands. Its coastal roads and beachfront walkways are prime solar street light territory, with the additional constraint of high humidity, salt spray, and marine-grade material requirements. A 100% renewable destination cannot justify diesel standby lighting, so solar becomes the default rather than the exception. Diriyah Gate, the US$63 billion heritage district outside Riyadh, sits at the opposite end of the design spectrum: a UNESCO-adjacent historic setting where Wadi Hanifah pedestrian walkways demand heritage-compatible fixtures, warm 3000K colour temperatures, low-glare optics, and absolute zero trenching through archaeological buffer zones. Battery storage buried in vandal-resistant poles, rather than underground cabling, is exactly why solar lighting wins these tenders. Both projects share one procurement trait: spec packages are project-specific, pre-qualification is formal, and suppliers need real manufacturing scale to qualify.

UAE 2031 and Dubai 2040: Retrofit at City Scale

On the UAE side, the Dubai 2040 Urban Master Plan redevelops five major urban centres with pedestrian-first streets, green spines, and public-realm lighting upgrades. Much of this is retrofit: replacing legacy 150W–250W HPS installations with solar or grid-hybrid LED systems, especially in the residential zones that the plan designates for densification. Masdar City continues to set the benchmark for sustainable street lighting specification, and the UAE's net-zero-2050 commitment pushes every emirate's municipalities toward solar-first procurement. For grid-connected urban corridors where pure off-grid is unnecessary, hybrid solar street lights with grid backup are increasingly specified — a configuration where the same luminaire family covers both solar and grid variants, which is precisely why our LED street light series and solar street light series share drivers, optics, and tooling.

How the Procurement Ecosystem Actually Works

Mega-project lighting procurement in the GCC runs through formal channels: Etimad and national e-procurement portals for government bodies, supplier pre-qualification portals for giga-project developers, and EPC frameworks where lighting packages are subcontracted to specialist suppliers. Three requirements recur in every serious tender: certification validity (SABER in Saudi Arabia, ESMA in the UAE, QDB in Qatar), local-content expectations, and demonstrable factory capacity. A supplier that can show a 160,000 m² factory, 500+ workers, and 20+ production lines clears pre-qualification thresholds that small traders simply cannot. The commercial logic is equally simple — giga-project volumes (1,000 to 10,000+ units per framework) reward manufacturers who can quote fast, certify correctly, and deliver on a phased schedule.

3. Engineering Solar Street Lights for 50°C+ Desert Extremes

The Gulf summer is not a normal operating environment. Ambient temperatures of 45–50°C are routine in July and August, asphalt and pole surfaces reach 70°C+, humidity along the coasts approaches saturation, and sandstorms can strip paint and pack dust into every unsealed crevice. A solar street light engineered for temperate markets will fail here within months — typically as battery swelling, controller failure, or lens yellowing. The engineering rules below are the difference between a luminaire that survives a Gulf lifecycle and one that fails in its first summer.

Heat Management from Panel to LED

Every component in the energy chain derates with heat. LEDs lose efficacy and accelerate lumen depreciation; battery chemistry degrades faster; charge controllers protect themselves by throttling output. SUNDE's Gulf-spec solar street lights are engineered around this reality: die-cast aluminium housings with large thermal fins sized so the LED junction stays within the LM-80 tested range even at 50°C ambient; a separate electronics chamber that isolates the battery and MPPT controller from direct solar gain on the housing; and high-temperature-grade LiFePO4 cells rated for -20°C to 65°C operation with an over-temperature-protected BMS that cuts charging above safety thresholds. Battery capacity is sized against real Gulf irradiation data (5.5–6.5 kWh/m²/day) for three-to-five-day autonomy, so the light runs through dust storms and overcast winter days without dipping below 30% state of charge.

MPPT Controllers: The 97% Efficiency Standard

The charge controller is the brain of any solar street light, and in the Gulf it must be heat-protected, not just efficient. SUNDE specifies MPPT controllers with up to 97% conversion efficiency and built-in high-temperature protection that derates charging current gracefully rather than shutting down or cooking the battery. Peak-power tracking matters more in desert latitudes than anywhere else because of the wide temperature swing between morning and afternoon panel temperatures — a fixed PWM system can lose 15–25% of harvestable energy across a Gulf day. Combined with the BMS, the controller also manages the LiFePO4 cell balancing that protects the 2,000+ cycle life the chemistry is capable of.

IP66/IP67: Sand is the Real Enemy

Water is easy to engineer against; sand is not. IP6X dust-tight sealing — the first digit in IP66/IP67 — is the Gulf-critical rating, because windborne sand finds every path and abrades gaskets over time. SUNDE's Gulf-spec housings use silicone gaskets, stainless steel hardware, and pressure-equalizing vents with breathable membranes that prevent the internal vacuum effect that otherwise sucks sand and moisture in during thermal cycling. The lens is UV-stable tempered glass rather than polycarbonate, which yellows under intense Gulf UV, and the powder coating is formulated for both UV and salt-spray resistance — every unit is salt-spray tested for coastal duty. The result is a luminaire that keeps its photometric performance and its seal for years, not months.

Optics, Colour Temperature, and Dark-Sky Compliance

Gulf specifications increasingly demand precise photometric control: Type II and III distributions for roads, Type V for intersections and roundabouts, and low-glare optics for pedestrian and heritage zones. LED packages such as Lumileds 5050 deliver the 130–160 lm/W efficacy modern tenders require, while 3000K–4000K CCT options accommodate both heritage aesthetics (Diriyah-style districts) and standard road lighting. Dark-sky compliance is moving into Gulf tender language as resorts and giga-projects market their natural environments — the Red Sea Project's mangrove zones, for example, require low upward-light ratios. All SUNDE fixtures ship with IES photometric files and full test documentation so your lighting designer can verify compliance before tender submission.

Explore the SUNDE solar street light series, designed and 100% tested for solar panel, battery, waterproofing, IES photometry, aging, salt spray, packaging, and voltage capacitance before dispatch.

4. OEM/ODM Customization for Gulf Mega-Project Specifications

Gulf mega-project tenders rarely fit a standard catalogue. NEOM's procurement engineers specify one thing, Diriyah Gate's conservation consultants another, and a Dubai municipality's retrofit team a third — yet all of them expect factory-direct supply with project-specific engineering, certification, and documentation. That is the OEM/ODM sweet spot, and it is where a manufacturer with real R&D depth outruns traders who can only resell off-the-shelf stock. For EPC contractors and lighting brands bidding into the GCC, working with a factory that customizes rather than substitutes is the fastest route to compliant, buildable lighting packages.

Custom Wattage and Lumen Packages by Project Type

Specification engineering starts with the photometric job, not the lamp. For NEOM-style giga-project perimeter roads, SUNDE builds dual-spec 80W/120W solar street lights delivering 140 lm/W-plus efficacy with four-to-five-day autonomy, remote monitoring, and IP66/IP67 sealing — the exact package that appears in off-grid desert road tenders. For Diriyah Gate and other heritage districts, we re-engineer the same platform into heritage-style luminaires: warm 3000K CCT, low-glare Type II optics, and anti-tamper pole-integrated battery compartments that eliminate trenching through archaeological buffer zones. For Dubai 2040 residential retrofits, the requirement flips to grid-hybrid operation — a luminaire that runs on solar with grid backup through the same driver family, so municipalities can convert corridors without rewiring. One factory platform, three project-specific configurations, and every variant documented with its own IES photometric file.

SABER/ESMA Certification Support Built into the Supply

Customization extends to compliance. Because SUNDE certifies its product range and factory systems in-house — CE, ROHS, ISO9001, FCC, EMC, UL, CB, LVD, SAA, UKCA, plus SABER, ESMA, and QDB pathways — OEM clients inherit test reports, factory audit documents, and batch test records that their local agents need for Product Certificate and Shipment Certificate registration. Our compliance team prepares the technical file for each consignment, so your Saudi importer of record only has to submit rather than re-engineer evidence. That single point of responsibility removes the most common cause of container holds at GCC ports.

Project-Specific Design, Branding, and Private Molds

Private-label programs are where ODM value becomes visible. Our 15 professional designers produce unique housings, colour schemes, and branding for your product line — from laser-etched logos and custom die-cast end caps to fully bespoke private molds for heritage replicas or signature urban designs. If your tender requires a luminaire that exists nowhere else, we build the mold, tool the optics, and protect your design exclusivity for the GCC market. Every branded unit ships with your packaging, your user manual, and your warranty documentation, so the product arrives ready to carry your name rather than a generic sticker.

Arabic/English Documentation Packages

GCC tender compliance demands documentation in both languages. SUNDE provides Arabic/English technical datasheets, installation manuals, wiring diagrams, and QR-linked installation videos, alongside the test reports (IES, LM-79/LM-80, salt spray, aging) that pre-qualification reviewers expect. Multilingual sales engineering support in English, French, and Japanese means your project team communicates with the factory in the language that avoids ambiguity — a small thing that eliminates most tender-documentation rejections.

5. Certification & Compliance — SABER, ESMA, QDB, GCC Standardization

Certification is the gate that decides whether a solar street light shipment clears GCC customs in days or sits in a port warehouse for weeks. Each market operates its own conformity scheme, and the differences matter more than the similarities. Below is the practical compliance map for the three largest Gulf lighting markets, plus the cross-market strategy that lets one certified product line serve several countries at once.

Saudi Arabia: SABER PCP and SCC

Saudi Arabia's SABER platform is the operational arm of the Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization (SASO). Every regulated product — including LED luminaires — must be registered under a Product Conformity Program (PCP) before import. In practice this means two certificates: a Product Certificate (PC), issued for the product and manufacturing plant after conformity assessment of test reports and factory audit, and a Shipment Certificate (SC), issued per consignment after the shipment is registered on SABER with invoice and test documentation. The SC is presented at Saudi customs together with the PC reference. Suppliers who assume one certificate covers all future shipments learn the hard way that every consignment needs its own SC — the most common cause of container holds in Dammam and Jeddah. SUNDE supports its Saudi partners by preparing the technical file and test evidence each registration requires.

UAE: ESMA and UAE.EC 60598

The UAE route runs through ESMA (now consolidated within MOIAT), which manages the Emirates Quality Mark (EQM) system. Lighting products are assessed against the UAE.EC 60598 series — the national adoption of IEC 60598 for luminaires — together with EMC and low-voltage directives. For street lighting projects tied to Dubai 2040 and emirate municipalities, an EQM-certified or ESMA-registered product with valid test reports is effectively a tender entry requirement. Because SUNDE tests every unit against IEC-based standards and maintains its certification set, UAE importers can register our LED street light and solar street light series without rebuilding the technical file from scratch.

Qatar: QDB Conformity Assessment

Qatar Development Bank (QDB) runs the conformity assessment that precedes customs clearance for regulated products. Solar street lights for Lusail, Msheireb, and the wider infrastructure build-out must arrive with QDB-recognized test reports and, where applicable, a Type Approval certificate. The practical note for suppliers: QDB recognizes IEC-based testing, so the same test reports that support your SABER and ESMA registrations can support Qatari approval with limited additional work.

SASO ISO 9001 and Factory-Level Requirements

Beyond product certification, Saudi buyers increasingly request SASO-accepted ISO 9001 certification as evidence of a controlled quality system, and giga-project pre-qualification frequently audits factory capacity, batch testing, and after-sales capability. SUNDE operates under ISO 9001 with 100% product testing across solar panel, battery, waterproofing, IES photometry, aging, salt spray, packaging, and voltage capacitance — the factory-level evidence that turns a price quote into a pre-qualified vendor.

Cross-Market GCC Strategy: One Product Line, Multiple Market Access

Because SABER, ESMA, and QDB all accept IEC/IECEE-based conformity evidence, a single product line engineered and tested once can serve Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, and the wider GCC simultaneously. The strategy is: certify the product family once with comprehensive test reports; keep factory audit and ISO 9001 documentation current; and let the local importer of record handle each country's platform registration (SABER SCs, ESMA/EQM, QDB Type Approval) against the same technical file. This is why our LED flood light and solar flood light families share the same certified components and test infrastructure — one approval chain covers multiple luminaire types and multiple markets.

6. Real Project Cases from the GCC

The specifications above are not theoretical. The three cases below — anonymized at the client's request — show how solar street light procurement actually runs across the three biggest Gulf markets, and what suppliers need to deliver when the tender is won.

Case 1: Saudi Arabia — NEOM-Zone Perimeter Road, 2,000 Units

A tier-1 EPC contracting for a NEOM-adjacent development zone tendered a 2,000-unit perimeter road package with a dual 80W/120W specification: 80W for secondary access roads, 120W for the main arterial, both at 140 lm/W-plus efficacy with four-to-five-day LiFePO4 autonomy. The winning supplier had to demonstrate SABER-registered products with the PC in place before contract signature, full IES photometric documentation for the lighting design model, and an 8-month phased delivery schedule synchronized with road completion milestones. Factory capacity was the differentiator: 500+ units per month had to ship while maintaining batch-level testing records for every consignment's Shipment Certificate. The lesson for bidders is that in Saudi giga-project procurement, certification validity and delivery phasing are evaluated as strictly as price.

Case 2: UAE — Dubai 2040 Residential Zone Retrofit, 1,500 Units

A Dubai-based facilities management company replacing legacy high-pressure-sodium lighting across a 2040-plan residential zone specified a 1,500-unit grid-hybrid solar street light package: solar-powered operation with grid backup, 100W-equivalent output, and ESMA registration validated before rollout. The 6-month rollout replaced existing poles with hybrid luminaires that cut the zone's lighting energy draw while preserving a single driver family for maintenance. Because the client needed to prove emissions savings to the master developer, every unit shipped with metered data logging and documentation of the tested power consumption. The commercial takeaway: Dubai 2040 retrofits reward suppliers who can deliver hybrid configurations with the paperwork to prove sustainability outcomes.

Case 3: Qatar — Lusail City Walkway, 600 Units

A Lusail district contractor specified 600 heritage-style solar street lights for coastal walkways: warm 3000K CCT, low-glare pedestrian optics, and a design language matching the waterfront architecture. QDB conformity approval was required before delivery, and the coastal location imposed marine-grade material selection with salt-spray-rated housings, stainless steel hardware, and UV-stable glass optics. SUNDE produced the heritage housing on a private mold, delivered QDB-supported test documentation with the first consignment, and completed the project in a 5-month window. The case demonstrates that Qatar's walkway and public-realm projects are where custom design, coastal engineering, and certification support combine in a single order.

7. Common Procurement Pitfalls

Most failed GCC solar lighting procurements fail for the same five reasons — none of them exotic, all of them avoidable if the specification is written and the supplier vetted with the market in mind.

1. Ignoring SABER batch-level certification requirements. Treating the Product Certificate as a one-time import pass is the single most expensive mistake in Saudi procurement. Every consignment needs its own Shipment Certificate registered on SABER; an expired or missing SC halts a container at customs while demurrage accrues. Build SC registration into your supplier's dispatch process, not your importer's emergency list.

2. Under-specifying sand and dust IP rating. Specifying IP65 "as standard" is a temperate-market reflex. In the Gulf, the IP6X dust-tight rating is the difference between a luminaire that survives years of sandstorms and one that fails in the first season. Write IP66 or IP67 with explicit IP6X dust sealing into the tender, and require the test report as evidence rather than taking it on faith.

3. Using non-heat-rated LiFePO4 batteries in 50°C+ environments. Standard-grade LiFePO4 cells derate and swell at Gulf summer temperatures. Specify batteries rated for -20°C to 65°C operation with over-temperature-protected BMS, and request the aging and high-temperature test data. A battery that fails in August voids the entire solar advantage.

4. Skipping Arabic documentation and labeling. Gulf customs, certification bodies, and giga-project QA teams expect Arabic/English technical files, labels, and manuals. Missing Arabic labeling is a routine reason for rejection letters and corrective-action requests. Require bilingual documentation in the supply contract, not as an afterthought.

5. No after-sales GCC service coverage plan. A solar street light is a system with moving electrochemical parts; municipalities need spare battery packs, drivers, and controller stock plus a warranty response path. Suppliers with no regional service plan force clients to ship defective units back to the factory at project cost. Ask for the warranty policy, spare-parts program, and response-time commitment in writing before award.

The next two years will shift Gulf solar street lighting from single-luminaire products toward connected energy systems. Four trends are already visible in tender language and development master plans.

Solar + storage microgrids. Giga-project districts are moving from individual solar poles to clustered solar-plus-storage microgrids where street light batteries, PV canopies, and district controllers share one energy pool — lighting becomes an anchor load that stabilizes a neighborhood microgrid rather than an island. Suppliers will need hybrid-ready luminaires with communication ports and battery capacity sized for export as well as self-consumption.

AI-driven adaptive dimming. Gulf tenders are beginning to specify occupancy- and ambient-light-adaptive control: AI schedules that dim corridors to 20% after midnight, boost to full output on detected movement, and learn traffic patterns over time. Expect data-driven dimming to become a scored criterion in 2027–2028 tenders, not a premium extra.

Bi-directional EV charging street lights. With EV adoption accelerating in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, street light poles are being designed as bi-directional charging points — daytime solar surplus charges parked vehicles, and vehicle batteries back up the light at night. Pilot corridors are already in planning; the pole becomes revenue infrastructure, changing the business case for municipal lighting budgets.

Circular economy in Gulf lighting. Sustainability reporting is pushing durability, repairability, and end-of-life recovery into specifications: modular drivers and batteries that can be swapped in the field, aluminium housings designed for recycling, and supplier take-back programs. Manufacturers that publish repairability and recycled-content data will clear pre-qualification hurdles that others cannot.

9. FAQ — Middle East Solar Street Light Procurement

What is the SABER certification process for importing solar street lights into Saudi Arabia?

Register the product on the SABER platform through your Saudi importer of record: first obtain a Product Certificate (PC) based on the technical file, factory audit, and test reports; then register each consignment to receive a Shipment Certificate (SC) before shipping. Every shipment needs its own SC — the PC alone does not clear customs.

What specifications do NEOM and Saudi giga-project tenders typically require?

Common NEOM-zone requirements: 80W/120W dual-spec or higher, 140 lm/W-plus efficacy, four-to-five-day LiFePO4 battery autonomy, IP66/IP67 with IP6X dust-tight sealing, remote monitoring, 25-year design life, coastal salt resistance, and full IES/LM-79/LM-80 documentation.

How long does delivery take for a large order?

With 20+ production lines and 35,000 PCS daily capacity, SUNDE can deliver 500+ unit orders within 25 days. Giga-project frameworks of 1,000–10,000 units are delivered on phased schedules aligned to your construction milestones.

What is your MOQ for OEM/ODM orders?

For standard certified products the MOQ is small enough to support pilot projects; for private-label and private-mold ODM programs the MOQ depends on tooling and packaging investment, which we size with you against the expected framework volume.

What is the warranty and after-sales policy for the GCC?

SUNDE promises refund or free replacement for quality problems, with warranty terms covering luminaire, solar panel, battery, and controller. All inquiries and after-sales requests are responded to within 2 hours, and we provide a spare-parts program so GCC clients can maintain stock locally.

Can you provide certification support for the UAE and Qatar as well?

Yes. Our test reports support ESMA/EQM registration under UAE.EC 60598 for the UAE and QDB conformity assessment for Qatar, so one certified product line can serve the whole GCC. We prepare the technical file for each market's registration.

Do you offer grid-hybrid solar street lights for retrofit projects?

Yes — the same luminaire family covers pure solar and grid-hybrid variants, sharing drivers, optics, and tooling with our standard LED street light and solar street light series. This is the configuration Dubai 2040 residential retrofits typically specify.

Can you design a custom or heritage-style fixture for a specific project?

Yes. Our 15 professional designers can create unique housings, private molds, branding, and heritage replicas (such as warm 3000K Lusail-style walkway fixtures), with your design kept exclusive to your market.

Do you provide Arabic documentation and installation support?

Yes. All GCC deliveries include Arabic/English datasheets, manuals, wiring diagrams, and QR-linked installation videos, and our multilingual sales engineering team (EN/FR/JP) supports your project team throughout.

How do you guarantee quality for Gulf desert conditions?

Every unit is 100% tested for solar panel, battery, waterproofing, IES photometry, aging, salt spray, packaging, and voltage capacitance before dispatch, and Gulf-spec models use heat-rated LiFePO4 cells, IP6X dust-tight housings, and UV-stable tempered glass.
