Marine SREs

Elomatic and thyssenkrupp Marine Systems have signed a major ship design contract for the groundbreaking new Polarstern, the world’s largest and most advanced research and polar logistics icebreaker (AWI - The new Polarstern). This cutting-edge vessel, replacing the existing Polarstern, will feature state-of-the-art scientific equipment, sustainable propulsion, and the ability to break through 1.8-meter-thick ice. 

Elomatic delivers nearly all basic and detail design work, as well as providing production and commissioning support. With a strong track record in designing icebreakers - including Canada’s new Polar icebreaker for Canada’s national shipbuilding strategy - this project marks a significant milestone in strengthening the global Arctic fleet of heavy icebreakers.
