On June 21^st, Elomatic Oy established a new design and consulting subsidiary in Germany called Elomatic Maritime Technologies. It will take on challenging work in the area of ship design and offshore structures. Elomatic Maritime Technologies will initially employ about 30 experienced and passionate marine industry professionals originating from the German Baltic Sea shipyards cluster, following the pandemic-forced closure of MV Werften.

The new German subsidiary complements Elomatic's solid ship design expertise. With its establishment, Elomatic will significantly strengthen its concept and basic design expertise as well as its capacity to provide excellence to shipping companies, operators and shipyards around the world.

Elomatic Maritime Technologies will be based in the Hanseatic city of Wismar on the Baltic Sea coast and draws on its renowned shipbuilding competence and pioneering work in the offshore wind power segment.

“I am really happy to welcome a group of true shipbuilding professionals to our team. Their experience with offshore wind power ships and infrastructures, green technologies, Arctic ships, governmental vessels and cruise ships strengthens every area where Elomatic wants to be number one in the world”, says Rami Hirsimäki, Senior Vice President of Elomatic.

“Elomatic provides a good foundation for building a ship design unit in Germany. We bring strong expertise to both to the German and Elomatic's traditional markets”, says Guido Schulte, CEO of the established company.
