TWO-YEAR CONTRACT SECURED FOR GLASS PULTRUDED BLADE ROOT REINFORCEMENTS

We have today announced the signing of a new two-year supply contract for our glass pultruded blade root reinforcement solution with a leading Wind turbine manufacturer in the Asia-Pacific region. The agreement is valued above CHF 10 million over the contract term.

As wind turbine blades continue to increase in size, the structural demands on blade roots are rising accordingly. To meet these evolving requirements, many Western and Chinese blade manufacturers are shifting toward more advanced reinforcement solutions.

Our high performance pultruded root reinforcements are custom-engineered for each blade model to ensure exceptional bonding performance at the critical root-end-connection interface, reducing the risk of bushing shear-out. Our unique design results in more efficient root designs and tighter bushing spacing, resulting in smaller root diameters and lighter overall structures without compromising strength.

The awarding of this contract underscores the strategic decision to maintain and further develop our glass pultrusion product line, recognizing the long-term importance for next-generation blade designs.

Our proven track record, engineering expertise, and reliable performance have positioned us as a preferred supplier in a highly competitive wind market, serving multiple OEMs across Western and Chinese markets.
