On March 1, Gurit (Zurich, Switzerland) announced a three-year core material kit engineering and supply contract with a major wind turbine manufacturer. The agreement is a continuation of a long-standing partnership with similar volumes and is expected to generate net sales of CHF 270-350 million (approximately USD $290-377 million) over the 2021-2023 period. The contract will generate business for all ten kitting sites, including the new facilities being set up in India.
