Innovative custom solutions

Our innovation process

Our customers needs and idea's

Innovation is a part of our DNA. For us, flexibility and creativity are the most important things when we create the covering solutions of tomorrow.

We work closely together with our customers and take the time to listen to identify the customer’s needs. We use our knowledge and experience to give the customer the best service and solutions.

Our engineers and product developers brainstorm the task upon meeting with our customers.

What are the challenges? What are the demands? And how do we meet that with our design, cost, and supply chain?

Our hands and minds

We begin with an initial meeting to review the task and receive drawings or specifications for the component(s) you need covered.

From there, the joint development process begins: we outline, calculate, and visualise possible solutions together with you. Our specialists – with extensive experience in tarpaulin design – work closely to turn ideas into solutions that can be tested and refined.

The concept is visualised using 3D CAD software or built as a physical model. We present the solution to you and make adjustments if needed.

Prototype creation

What works on paper does not always work in practice. That is why we build prototypes – either full-scale or as scaled models using the same materials as the final solution.

Prototypes allow us to:

• Test functionality
• Evaluate production feasibility
• Maximise value for you as the customer

Our developers and craftsmen work closely together to ensure that insights from the prototype phase are integrated into the final product.

In many cases, the solution requires specialised components such as pneumatic interfaces, zippers, or straps. Our sourcing team identifies the best components for the specific project.

Testing

All our protection solutions are thoroughly tested. We carry out both FAT and SAT on-site, with our engineers and product developers present to document every detail and ensure the solution performs as intended – including during installation.

What is second nature to us is not always obvious to those installing the product. That is why we make sure everything is in place and works exactly as it should.

Final documentation and quotation

Once the test has been approved, we prepare the final technical documentation.

We develop tailored proposals based on each customer’s requirements: What is the volume? Which materials are involved? When and where does the product need to be delivered?

Our aim is to deliver the greatest possible value within the given framework.

Serial production

Once the solution is approved, we move into production.

With production units in Denmark, Poland, and China, we are able to deliver globally – and at competitive prices, even for custom-designed solutions.

Our production is certified according to both environmental and quality standards. Thanks to our quality management systems, we maintain full visibility of capacity and deliveries – enabling us to deliver on time, every time.
