OUR MISSION
OUR VALUES
Creativity drives our innovation and problem solving, inspiring us to push boundaries. Adaptability allows us to remain resilient in an ever changing industry. Empathy guides our decision making for the benefit of our business and the benefit of planet. Lastly we believe that Transparency among industry experts is the only way to truly create change and sustainability in industries like the composite sector.
OUR JOURNEY
As boatbuilders we understand composite materials and the heavy toll they take on the environment at their end-of-life. We explored recyclable resins and solvent technologies with promising applications for our industry. Recognizing conventional recycling processes posed significant challenges in utilizing the full potential of these emerging technologies, we developed an innovative and accessible solution, ReceTT technology. Our novel process optimizes the capabilities of these new recyclable resin and solvent technologies, enabling recycling of composite products with large complex geometry in a sustainable and economical system.
Realizing the broader applications of ReceTT recycling across various composite industries, we proactively engaged wind turbine manufacturer, Siemens Gamesa in discussions about a partnership. This initiative marked an innovative and pioneering effort to leverage our technology for mutual benefit, aiming to create sustainable solutions for the complex challenges facing all composite industries and the environment - to demonstrate this we launched The Second Wind Project.
