WrapNode-II Demonstrator Jacket: 150% ULS load test achieved!

On 06/02/2026 we hit another milestone we’re genuinely proud of. During testing of our demonstrator jacket, we safely reached 150% of the load level that corresponds to the ULS, the design load level, of the representative full-scale offshore wind turbine jacket.

ULS (Ultimate Limit State) is the point engineers use to represent the most demanding load a structure might ever see. Proving performance beyond that point proves the stability and robustness of the design and use of Composite Joint technology.

After the proud moment of unwrapping and assembling the full demonstrator jacket, seeing it perform in testing at this level is a real validation of the work put in by everyone involved. We are excited by what this means for the next steps, and proud of the team and partners who made it possible:
