Klaas Rozema, President of Titomic EMEA, commented: “This agreement with DNV marks a significant step forward for Titomic as we expand into the global energy and maritime markets. NORSOK M-501 and related maritime certifications will enable Titomic Kinetic Fusion to be recognised for thermal spray aluminium (TSA) repairs, surface protection of field welds, and restoration of marine hulls, ballast tanks, subsea infrastructure, and pipeline systems. Working with DNV ensures our technology is held to the highest international standards.”

Jim Simpson, CEO and Managing Director of Titomic, added, “This collaboration reinforces Titomic’s commitment to delivering practical, efficient, and reliable repair solutions for mission-critical infrastructure. Our Titomic Kinetic Fusion technology is not only easy to deploy on-site, but it also allows for rapid repairs, minimal downtime, and extended operational life of high-value assets. The process is highly material-efficient, using only the required powder with minimal waste, and offers a cost-effective alternative to traditional methods, especially in remote or offshore environments where speed and precision are essential.”
This initiative supports Titomic’s broader strategy to offer certified, sustainable solutions for the repair, refurbishment, and protection of critical infrastructure. The NORSOK M-501 certification – alongside engagement with other leading classification societies such as Lloyd’s Register, ABS, and Bureau Veritas – will validate the Titomic Kinetic Fusion Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing technology for high-performance, corrosion-resistant applications in harsh marine and offshore environments, thus strengthening the company’s presence across global shipbuilding, offshore energy, and industrial asset management markets.
