WIND Group acquires Draftec

Netherlands-based Draftec was founded in 2009 by Martijn Boone who, together with fellow director Martijn Holtkamp, will continue to manage the company.

Tom Nooij, chief executive of WIND, welcomed Draftec to the WIND Group. “By bringing their skills and capabilities into the group we will be able to offer even more support to our clients’ projects,” he said.

“With Draftec available at our yards around the world, WIND is making another move towards supporting our clients from A to Z.”

Over the years, Draftec has grown into a specialist system integrator and manufacturer of custom-designed, multi-disciplinary systems and mission equipment for sectors including offshore wind, marine & dredging and heavy lift.

“This is an exciting step forward for Draftec and takes us closer to our goal of being a worldwide innovative equipment supplier,” said Martijn Boone, managing director of Draftec.

“Our companies’ common culture and values make this a logical move that holds great potential for the future.”
