Research & Development

  • Our R&D of the Hexicon Concept was initiated because of the different applications which were found suitable for this concept when Fagerdala Hull system earlier was researched and tested by Alfgam / KTH (Royal Technical Institute)in Stockholm, Sweden. A ship hull system initially invented and developed by Sven Jönsson in the 1980-ies which has resulted in many different patented applications.

  • As a result of this extensive research, it was found that the "Fagerdala Hull System" was useful for different applications. Useful for ships such as large oil tankers to mega yachts, cruise ships as well as military Vessels.  It was found that the system was also very beneficial in several non ship hull related areas.

  • The Hull System is so efficient that it can be used on tankers for transport of  waste or "spill-water" from steel mills / pulp production facilities to cities  utility and "local heating plants" with non essential loss of heat during transport.

  • In the process, it was also found very useful for off-shore platforms, since it virtually eliminates all corrosion, condensation and moisture where applied. In addition, it absorbs vibrations from machinery and reduces stress on the structure itself. Machinery with sound related vibrations are also reduced with very good results.

  • The Hull System promotes longevity. At the same time general maintenance is greatly reduced. As a consequence, the Hexicon Concept offers extended life-span of both platform, tower, the construction itself and equipment.

  • It was found that the research, development and design of the Hexicon Concept presents many new qualities previously missing in "off-shore" wind power plants. Our mobile solution, offers additional benefits for economical designs of large platforms. Further developments and testing will later continue and take place on board under real life circumstances.
