Key characteristics
FMGC is the casting subsidiary of Farinia Group. The company’s history dates back to 1929. Today FMGC is one of the world leaders in cast counterweights manufacturing with various customers and since 2015 it has diversified its business into the renewable energy markets. The unfolding of our capacity for innovation and diversification leans on quality and safety.
The MRE solutions from FMGC are mainly employed in tidal, floating and fixed offshore wind power and submarine cable protection.
FMGC clump weights are extra weight fixed on mooring lines. They contribute to the stablilization of the floaters and reduce the excursion area.
Weight adjustment and repartition along the chain enable to reduce on the meantime the mooring lines lenght and the costs.
