Wind Energy 2020 bi urtean behin egiten den azoka da, eta sektore eoliko eta energetikoko nazioarteko adituen arteko hitzaldiak eta eztabaidak eragiten […]

Developing industrially complex infrastructure projects always brings a wide variety of challenges. And handling and transporting large components is one of the most delicate. All the various components must be handled with precision, effectiveness and careful use of resources, above all, in terms of time, efficiency and safety. Properly designing tools for transporting heavy loads […]

Any major installation or project requires a considerable amount of advance planning. Within this planning, it’s not just economic factors or deadlines and implementation phases that come into play. Nowadays, environmental sustainability is a crucial element. To contribute to a lower environmental impact, sustainability factors have to be taken into account, including – among others […]

At Kimua, we work closely alongside our customers who install and develop wind energy facilities. Both onshore and offshore. As such, we understand the vital importance of proper environmental impact studies and how they can make all the difference when designing an ecologically responsible future. Our products perfectly respond to this commitment to adopting all […]

¿Did you know that Kimua has developed the Arin Box eco-design box project? A line of ultra-light boxes designed for lifting special loads in the wind sector. By introducing this technology, and together with the help of IHOBE (the Basque government’s company for environmental management), the aim is to encourage new and innovative approaches from […]

Our environmental footprint and the impact of industry on Earth are clear. As such, offering products that have been specifically designed with eco-design principles embedded, and that allow us to calculate our environmental footprint – either directly or indirectly – are vital. Only in this way will it be possible to promote sustainability and greater […]

It’s hardly a stretch of the imagination to say we may be living through the final chapter of a productive and industrial system underpinned by linearity. Everything around us is showing signs of exhaustion because of our endless producing and consuming. And that also goes for the way we understand our economy and our impact […]

Given the wide variety of options and requirements when handling heavy loads across the rail sector, at Kimua, we design and manufacture modern loading equipment and lifting spreaders, all specially adapted to the needs of the modern business. Here, we’ll show you just some of the advantages that custom designed lifting tools can offer, as well […]

Everyone who works with industrial equipment must make sure they’re properly prepared to look after their health and safety in the workplace. This is true for all load handling operations, whether done manually, using forklifts or lifts. Taking part in a load handling course guarantees you’ll learn everything you need to know about working safely, so take […]

Planning and assembling offshore wind turbines can be a real challenge due to the harsh weather conditions, the diversity of the composition of the seabed and a whole range of other technical and logistical factors that can hinder the process. It’s important to have the right technology in place when installing the various sections of […]

A significant part of the train parts manufacturing process lies in transport logistics when assembling and moving various elements. Modern rail vehicles all contain bulky sections that need to be handled with the utmost care in order to avoid twisting their component materials. Kimua gives you the tools and teams you need to transport these […]

Transitioning to wind energy is one of the most viable ways to reduce our environmental impact. Besides plans to increase our reliance on wind power, the development of support tools and transporting offshore wind turbines will be crucial in making decisions at logistics and planning levels in such complex environments as wind energy. Installing offshore […]

Offshore wind farms provide a clean and renewable source of energy that takes advantage of the wind in areas far off the coast. The wind reaches higher and more constant speeds here due to the absence of any natural barriers. These farms represent a firm commitment to meeting the growing demand for renewable energy sources […]

Nowadays, lots of products have to achieve a CE marking before they can be bought and sold within the European Economic Area. This mark is the symbol that proves a product meets a series of health, safety and environmental protection standards. Here, we’ll explain exactly what a CE marking on appliances and machinery actually means, […]

The rail industry is vitally important for the economic development of any country or region. Acutely aware of this, the European Union have funded a knowledge exchange programme with an international focus to help leading companies from the rail sectors of Member States travel to Japan, one of the world’s most recognised leading countries in […]

Wind energy is set to meet the needs of a quarter of Europe by 2030. As such, it represents one of the core strengths of the global energy market for the European Union and will continue to do so for a very long time indeed. In fact, 44% of new power stations opened across the […]

At KIMUA we are constantly looking for improvement, at all scales, and we knew we owed you this, a new website, easier to understand and that would allow you to get in touch with us in an easier way. KIMUA has evolved a lot during last years so we also owed us a new website […]

Renewable Energies are rooted deep inside Kimua’s DNA and Marine Energy Industry is not an exception. We have been following this industry for a long time, celebrating the achievements it has made so far and supporting it until the commercialisation stage it has finally reached. For all these reasons and also because we believe that even today there is still […]

As part of the interesting analysis about the huge potential the Basque Country has in terms of development and implementation of marine energies, you’ll find an abstract about KIMUA’s capabilities and what it has to offer to this ascending industry in the latest issue of Wave & Tidal. The article focuses on how KIMUA is extrapolating […]

KIMUA and Mondragon Goi Eskola Politeknikoa (MGEP) have presented together the results obtained from a study on fatigue life prediction in welded joints, focused on searching alternatives for optimizing engineering designs that allow a reduction of associated manufacturing costs of producing transport frames destined to be used in heavy cargo sea shipping. The study started with the analysis […]
