About us
Our passion for nature was our beginning
Inspired by Nature
The Idea from Nature
The complex root system of a Tree
The technical solution
Anchor plate with threaded Rods
The Motivation
First application of the Snowgripper avalanche protection system
Inspired by nature, the Spinnanker is a new technology for anchoring to the ground.
Originally rooted in the Alpine area, our passion was awakened to develop something bigger. We want to fly to Mars. Mars? The first solar sails for energy generation for a colonization shall be anchored with Spinnanker.
Until then, we want to work with our customers to optimize the processes for anchoring in naturally grown soil and to absorb high loads in the most resource-conserving way possible. Here, everything will continue to revolve around the driving of a bolt through an anchor plate.
Our Vision
Rooted in the alpine region and confronted daily with natural challenges, we are constantly seeking process optimization and simplification. Originally coming from avalanche control and merely looking for a foundation for the Snowgripper that would endure the alpine soil, our passion to develop something greater was ignited.
As is often the case, nature is the best teacher. Assuming that nature’s evolutionary processes yield optimized structures and processes, we sought to harness these. In our search for the optimal foundation and anchoring technique for high loads without the use of concrete, we turned to the root system of a tree. Just as Leonardo da Vinci, a great pioneer of bionics, found innovative applications in technology, we have discovered a brilliantly simple and simply brilliant solution.
The system must be simple and cost-effective, yet safe and versatile. With the Spinnanker, we have succeeded in creating a marketable product. Our goal now is widespread application, both geographically and in terms of usage. Geographically, this includes desert regions with sandy soil, and in terms of application, it provides an effective alternative for urgent situations such as slope stabilization after landslides.
