As Poland’s wind energy sector accelerates with new turbine manufacturing investments from global leaders such as Vestas, Siemens Gamesa, and GE, the importance of a strong, localised supply chain has never been greater. At the heart of this transformation, Anocote Polska, operating in partnership with the Koelner Rawlplug IP Group’s Łańcut industrial campus, is delivering advanced, environmentally responsible corrosion protection systems that align with the renewable industry’s sustainability and reliability goals.
Local presence, global expertise
Anocote Polska combines the backing and technical resources of the Anochrome Group - a European leader in corrosion protection - with local agility and integration within Poland’s fast-growing manufacturing network. This partnership with the Koellner Group ensures close proximity to a major European fastener and component production hub, giving OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers direct access to coating services that shorten supply chains, reduce carbon emissions, and improve overall efficiency.
“Wind energy represents the next frontier for industrial sustainability,” says Pawel Jagustyn, European Divisional Director, Anochrome Group. “By investing in Polish capability, we’re providing the renewable industry with coatings that not only extend component life in harsh offshore and onshore environments, but also align with low-carbon, PFAS-free, and water-based technologies that meet the environmental standards expected by leading OEMs such as Vestas, Siemens Gamesa, and GE.”
PFAS-free and low-carbon innovation
At the core of Anocote Polska’s offering are PFAS-free, low-VOC, water-based zinc flake coatings engineered to provide exceptional corrosion resistance at minimal coating thicknesses. These modern formulations represent a step-change away from traditional solvent-based products, supporting the wind industry’s wider sustainability objectives by reducing hazardous emissions and improving operator safety.
Equally significant are Anocote Polska’s low-temperature curing systems, which enable substantial energy savings during production without compromising adhesion or mechanical performance. For turbine fasteners and components, where consistency and reliability are mission-critical, these coatings deliver long-term corrosion protection in line with ISO 12944 CX performance categories.
Adding value through integration
Anocote Polska’s on-site location within the Koellner industrial ecosystem allows direct collaboration with component manufacturers during production. This close integration not only cuts transport time and cost but also enhances traceability and quality control through recognised Quality Management Systems (ISO 9001, ISO 14001). Components can move seamlessly from forging to coating within the same industrial zone—significantly reducing handling and logistical complexity.
This model of “local coating at source” offers measurable benefits for OEMs establishing or expanding production in Poland. By keeping coating processes local, manufacturers avoid cross-border shipping delays, reduce environmental footprint, and benefit from tighter control over quality and certification.
Supporting Poland’s renewable manufacturing hub
Poland’s emergence as a wind energy manufacturing hub—highlighted by Vestas’s recent investment in new turbine component factories - creates a strategic opportunity for the national supply chain. With turbines and sub-assemblies increasingly built domestically, access to local finishing capability is essential to maintain the pace and cost-effectiveness of large-scale renewable projects.
Anocote Polska’s investment directly supports this trend. By aligning its coating technology, testing, and logistics with the requirements of the renewables industry, the company ensures that fasteners, fixings, and structural components leaving Polish factories are protected to world-class standards.
Building a sustainable future for wind energy
Beyond technology, Anocote Polska’s focus on sustainability and value creation extends to continuous improvement in resource efficiency, waste minimisation, and digital traceability. The company’s integration with the Anochrome Group’s wider European R&D network means Polish customers benefit from access to next-generation coatings and process innovations that reduce total lifecycle cost and improve reliability in the field.
“Our mission in Poland is to help customers localise supply, minimise environmental impact, and ensure the long-term integrity of critical components,” concludes Pawel Jagustyn. “By combining the technical strength of the Anochrome Group with our partnership at Koellner’s site, Anocote Polska is delivering the coatings of the future—sustainably, locally, and ready for the next generation of wind energy.”
Anocote Polska invites turbine OEMs, Tier 1 suppliers, and fastener manufacturers to collaborate on corrosion protection solutions optimised for Poland’s growing wind energy supply chain. The team offers technical consultation, coating trials, and on-site audits to demonstrate the value of localised, sustainable finishing technologies.
