Why choose GBM Works?

Suppose you work during an internship for an offshore contractor who builds offshore wind farms and learn that their ships and their installation methods are anything but sustainable. Marine life suffers from man's drive to replace fossil energy sources with sustainable ones, but the installation of infrastructure is light years behind. Then, as a young engineer, you design your own method.

5 years ago we started GBM Works. We developed a disruptive and innovative method to silently install foundations. Now, we are developing the tool, our Vibrojet®, for the next generation XXL monopiles used for wind energy offshore. Our patented method will solve major challenges in the offshore wind industry that are associated with the current method of ‘piling’ such as harmful noise to marine life, potential delays, fatigue damage in the pile, and scaling issues.
