Windtex Secures Major Contract
Posted 8th April, 2026
Strategic Partnership
  • Strategic Partnership Strengthens UK Wind Sector Delivery

    Windtex Engineering Limited has been formally awarded a significant package of inspection and maintenance works across multiple UK wind farm projects by Nordex, marking a notable milestone in the company’s continued growth within the renewable energy sector. The award reinforces Windtex’s position as a trusted delivery partner for complex wind turbine operations, particularly across inspection, maintenance and specialist rope access services.

    The scope of works includes statutory inspections, lift installations and scheduled maintenance activities, forming a comprehensive service package that will support the operational integrity and performance of Nordex turbines across the UK portfolio.

  • Recognition of Proven Capability

    The contract award follows a competitive tender process in which Windtex demonstrated both technical competence and operational scalability. With over a decade of experience working on Nordex platforms, Windtex has built a strong reputation for delivering high-quality services across a wide range of turbine technologies.

    Having maintained Nordex turbines since 2010, Windtex brings a depth of knowledge that is difficult to replicate. This includes extensive familiarity with Beta, Gamma, and Delta platforms, as well as hands-on experience across numerous UK and European sites. The company’s ability to mobilise multiple competent teams, combined with in-house Nordex Authorised Technicians (ATs), played a key role in securing the award.

"This award is a reflec­tion of the con­sis­tent effort our teams have put in over many years. We’ve invest­ed heav­i­ly in train­ing, capa­bil­i­ty and sys­tems to ensure we can deliv­er safe­ly and effi­cient­ly at scale. To be recog­nised by Nordex in this way is some­thing we’re extreme­ly proud of."

  • Comprehensive Scope of Works

    The awarded package is structured to provide a full lifecycle approach to turbine inspection and maintenance. Key elements include:

    Statutory Inspections & Lift Installations: Ensuring all lifting equipment and safety-critical systems comply with LOLER and PUWER regulations.

    LTSI (Long Term Storage Inspections): Detailed inspection regimes focused on keeping stored components in perfect condition.

    Type 1 (500-Hour) Maintenance: Comprehensive maintenance scope following turbine installation.

  • Long-Term Site Presence and Continuity

    One of the defining features of the contract is the anticipated long-term presence of Windtex teams on site. For certain elements of the work, including statutory inspections, Windtex is expected to maintain a continuous site presence over an extended period.

    This model provides several operational advantages, including improved continuity, enhanced familiarity with site-specific conditions, and greater efficiency in addressing emerging issues. It also enables closer collaboration between Windtex technicians and Nordex project teams, ensuring alignment on safety standards, work sequencing, and reporting requirements.

  • Commitment to Safety and Compliance

    Safety remains a central pillar of Windtex’s operations, and this contract is no exception. All works will be delivered in accordance with stringent industry standards. In addition, Windtex operates under ISO-accredited management systems covering quality, environmental management, and occupational health and safety.

    The company’s rope access operations adhere to IRATA guidelines, ensuring that all work at height is conducted with the highest levels of control and oversight. Detailed RAMS, rescue plans, and emergency response procedures will be developed in close coordination with Nordex prior to mobilisation.

    Windtex has also demonstrated a proactive approach to safety through continuous improvement initiatives, including regular toolbox talks, safety alerts, and internal audits designed to identify and mitigate risk.
