Polytech
We make sustainability profitable. At Polytech, we bring sustainable solutions to life that improve the durability and performance of wind turbines. Our solutions protect turbine blades from lightning and erosion, they monitor and optimize turbine performance, and protect and monitor turbine equipment during transport, storage, and in subsea environments. Founded in 1994, we are now front-runners in wind power innovation and a trusted partner to major players in the wind industry, with locations in Denmark, China, Germany, and Mexico. Ultimately, our ambition is to help the world become powered primarily by renewables. But good intentions will only get us so far. If we are to achieve our goal, we need to make sure that what’s good for the environment is good for your business. That’s why we obsess over how to reduce the levelized cost of wind energy. It’s also why we submit our products to rigorous testing, and why we pioneer the use of IIoT. Because together, through innovation rooted in sustainability, we can change the way we power our planet. Wind for life.
