A busy period at our Veldbæk paint shop.
From chimney sections to heavy yokes, components are moving through blasting, coating, and finishing as part of our daily production flow.

Everything is handled step by step on the shop floor — from surface preparation to final coating — ensuring each piece is ready for its next stage.

A small weld defect can become a long-term structural issue.
In industrial steel structures, imperfections such as lack of fusion, porosity, undercut, or cracking are not just cosmetic deviations — they can affect load distribution and fatigue resistance over time.

Proper weld defect repair requires more than just re-welding the affected area. It involves a controlled removal of the defect, verification of base material integrity, correct welding procedures, and often non-destructive testing to confirm compliance with the specification.

Repair quality directly influences structural integrity and long-term performance. In critical applications, there is no shortcuts.

If welding quality or structural repairs are part of your current scope, feel free to reach out to Henrik Sorensen our CTO or update yourself about our steelwork capabilities on our website: https://bwo-group.com/steelworks/

The most expensive coating system will fail on a poorly prepared surface.
In industrial corrosion protection, surface preparation is the single most critical factor for coating performance. In practice, up to 80% of coating lifetime is determined before the first layer is applied.

Even the most advanced epoxy or polyurethane system cannot compensate for inadequate blasting or poor environmental control.

Achieving the correct cleanliness grade (e.g. Sa 2.5 according to ISO 8501-1), the specified anchor profile, and full removal of contaminants is essential for adhesion and durability. Surface profile and environmental conditions — including dust levels, steel temperature, and dew point margin — must be verified before application.

Performance is built long before the first coat goes on.

This 20-meter-long, 45-ton chimney section has completed Sa 2.5 blasting and initial coating inside and outside over a three-day process.

The component will now return to the customer for installation of the stainless liner. Then it will come back for final external coating combining the anti-corrosive strength of Hempadur Speed-Dry ZP 500 with the durable, weather-resistant finish of Hempathane FastDry 55750.

At our Velbæk paint shop, these newly produced chimneys completed a full 3-day surface treatment process:
• Hall 1: Abrasive blasting to Sa 2.5
• Hall 2: Application of a two-coat system —140 μm epoxy primer + 60 μm polyurethane topcoat
The result is a durable coating system with consistent finish and long-term corrosion protection.

Errors, rework, and delays can cost millions — that’s why skilled NDT inspectors matter.

At BWO, we work with experienced NDT specialists who understand both the technical side and the practical demands of production environments. Their work helps prevent errors, maintain traceability, and reduce costly rework.

Our NDT services cover both onshore and offshore environments.

Why NDT matters:
•Flaw detection without damaging assets
• Proven compliance with international standards
• Higher safety and fewer shutdowns
• Long-term structural reliability

The financial edge:
• Early detection = lower repair costs
• Less downtime, fewer failures
• Longer asset lifespan
• Stronger ROI through predictive maintenance

Whether it’s wind turbines, pipelines, steel structures, or offshore platforms — our certified technicians deliver precision, speed, and peace of mind.

A proud moment as our teams support the successful completion of a major offshore wind project. ⚓️

These XXL monopiles range from 106 meters up to a record-setting 123.6 meters in length, weighing up to 2,515 tonnes each, with an exceptional welding defect rate of just 0.05%. 🤯

Did you know that on a monopile up to 125 meters long and 10 meters in diameter, there’s only one reference point for all measurements?

Marking involves precisely measuring and painting the numbering signs and other necessary markings required by the client or industry standards — a job where every millimeter counts. Every measurement must be extremely precise because even a small error can cause misalignment during offshore installation.

With more than 20 expert marking specialists, BWO is ready to support projects that demand the highest level of quality and precision.

At BWO, we have access to a large network of certified industrial painters qualified to work with high-performance coatings, including specialized and hazardous paints like Baltoflake and Polyurea.

Over 40 of our skilled painters were deployed in Denmark, contributing to surface treatment and painting on some of the industry’s largest monopiles, ensuring durability, quality, and offshore compliance.

We provide skilled painters across Europe, ready to support a wide range of onshore and offshore projects, delivering safe, reliable, and high-quality results wherever they’re needed.

Over coffee with one of our painters, Adrian, I was reminded of the strength behind BWO — our people.

With more than 12 years of experience across ships, rigs, and monopiles, he brings a wealth of knowledge and skill to every project. He has shown how experience and the right mindset make a real difference on site. Having professionals like him on board is what allows us to deliver the highest standards to our clients.

Because in the end, quality work starts with experienced, motivated, and respected employees.
