Norwegian MarLog AS expands to Denmark to enter a larger European market
With a high focus on sustainability and quality MarLog AS from Stavanger, Norway now offers rental, sale and service of ship fenders to the European market from its new office and hub in Esbjerg.
Bringing niche knowledge and expertise to a strong maritime sector
Since 1997, Norwegian MarLog has gained in-depth knowledge of both players and markets in the maritime sector. The Danish subsidiary, wholly owned by MarLog AS, is their first step into the European market, where they see great potential. With this, MarLog is expanding its network of local and regional collaborations for the delivery of quality maritime solutions.
"Despite strong project loads in Denmark within offshore wind, NATO/Navy and ship-to-ship, it is clear to us that there is a lack of a strong supplier of fender solutions, with good expertise also in the technical and practical aspects"
Denmark and Esbjerg are an ideal location
The energy metropolis Esbjerg and Stavanger have a lot in common, such as their activities and history in offshore, energy and the maritime sector. With an established link between the "energy capitals" of Norway and Denmark, Esbjerg was the obvious choice when MarLog AS looked south.
"It is an honour to be part of the broad and strong expertise you will find at the Port of Esbjerg, and the players here. We will continue our expertise as a competitive supplier of fender solutions and consultant/service services that make that little extra for project managers and those who make purchases."
Invest in Denmark played an important role in Marlog’s assessing the market potential, followed by a facilitation of the company’s entry into the Danish market, which included contacts to maritime stakeholders across the country and to local partners in Esbjerg via good support from Invest in Esbjerg.
“We are very pleased to welcome MarLog to Denmark as a valuable addition to a local yet global ecosystem of maritime actors. Denmark has a very strong local value chain within the maritime industry, but operating across Europe and around the world. When it comes to activities related to fenders the ecosystem can benefit heavily from the sector knowledge MarLog Fenders bring to the market.”
