Applications opened on 18 April 2024 for a unique project that could expand the US market for innovative UK companies developing technology which can help support the growing floating offshore wind market in the United States.

Expertise with metallic sealing and retaining ring solutions – a cornerstone of the RenewableUK member company’s activity – will be on display on the Cross Manufacturing stand at the Global Offshore Wind 2024 exhibition and conference, taking place on 18-19 June in Manchester.

Birmingham-based Armac Martin, a pioneer in design-led luxury brass hardware and accessories, relies heavily on compressed air for its CNC machining requirements. However, the company’s existing system was constantly operating at full capacity, leading to unnecessary energy expenditure. By collaborating with FPS Compressors and its preferred local distributor Compressed Air Systems UK - Birmingham, Armac Martin adopted a new system capable of variable compressed air supply. The project led to an impressive 46% reduction in energy consumption compared with the company’s previous compressor.

TMC Compressors (TMC) has announced it has been awarded a contract to supply a large capacity marine compressed air system to MODEC’s FPSO Errea Wittu.
