New supply partners for biggest wind energy distribution portal
Exactly on schedule to coincide with the beginning of the repair season, the online distribution platform WINDSOURCING.COM has further expanded its position as the leading global sales portal for product and service offerings in wind energy. Its product range from components, spare parts and repair equipment has further grown to around 15,000 items. Forming part of it now is the entire wind energy product repertoire of the manufacturers Sika for rotor blade repair products and Mita-Teknik for complete control systems of wind turbines. Managing Director Stefan Weber projects an exceedingly positive balance sheet for the first half of 2015.
“We are extremely satisfied with the first half of the year,” is the word from Stefan Weber. “Turnover in the first three months had already attained the previous year’s profit.” He went on to say that WINDSOURCING.COM had managed to acquire new customers, particularly in the important growth markets in Eastern Europe and Asia and to strengthen business relations with them. Additionally the online platform had also been able to adapt its product portfolio of currently around 250 supply partners with two further reputable manufacturers: “We are very pleased to have Sika and MitaTeknik on board,” affirms Weber. Mita-Teknik is an internationally active company specialising in complete control concepts for wind turbines, among others control systems, grid connection systems, condition monitoring, load and control optimising, and sensors.
Impulse from customer side
The Swiss holding company Sika AG is one of the leading manufacturers of construction chemical product systems as well as industrial sealants and adhesives. Sika Deutschland GmbH is one of the main pillars with six manufacturing plants located in Germany. For the wind energy sector the company produces sealants and adhesives for rotor blade repairs like the fast curing profile and surface fillers SikaForce®-7800 Red and SikaForce®-7800 Blue, as well as the two component epoxy resin system for structural repairs like the Sikadur® Blade Repair Kit-30 and -90. “It is our customers that made us aware of WINDSOURCING.COM,” acknowledges Andreas Vesper, who is in charge of the Business Development Division at Sika Deutschland GmbH. “They told us about their one-stop solution to source products and material for the repair of wind turbines and rotor blades. Our extensive range of adhesives and sealants fits greatly into WINDSOURCING.COM’s distribution portfolio. Finally our customers have convinced us of the many advantages of the online distribution platform. For us the portal WINDSOURCING.COM is an ideal additional option to bringing our products to the end user in the wind industry as effortlessly as possible. We look forward to a good and successful collaboration.”
Growing with the needs of our customers
