The expansion, which was delivered on time and within budget, entailed an investment of EUR 328 million, a 16-month construction period and offers additional jobs to almost 200 people, according to Sif.

The project added 60,000 square metres to Sif’s existing 40,000-square-metre facilities in Rotterdam, which have also been transformed from a more traditional assembly plant to a fully integrated robotised production line for monopile foundations of up to 11 metres in diameter and 120 metres in length.
