Patented composite bonding company

The offshore wind industry is under pressure: costs are rising, tenders are failing and European yards are losing ground to Asia. As a result, projects are delayed, while Europe wants to become less dependent on foreign production capacity and raw materials. This business provides the tipping point. This patented product replaces welded steel connections with lightweight, ultra-strong composite connections. This makes offshore wind foundations significantly lighter, stronger, faster to produce and much more durable. The key to affordable, scalable and fully European wind farm production.

Required capital: €550,000.

Growth forecast
The technology is not a vision of the future, but proven: developed at TU Delft, validated in more than 250 tests and already supported by Shell, Siemens Gamesa, Parkwind and HSM Offshore, among others. As a deep-tech scale-up from Delft , the company is setting a new global standard for connection technology in heavy structures. Here are some figures:

• Up to 60% less steel consumption
• Up to 100 years lifespan
• 40% reduction in production costs
• 2x faster construction time
• 35% less Co2 emissions
