Swiss marine power specialist WinGD has unveiled a major expansion of its service offering, launching Global Service by WinGD to deliver comprehensive engine and vessel support throughout the entire operational lifecycle. Building on the company’s established warranty-period services—including parts supply, technical advice, and in-service support—this initiative is designed to enhance operational efficiency, extend vessel lifespans, and help operators maximise profitability.
With more than 125 years of expertise in two-stroke engine design, WinGD is leveraging its deep knowledge of marine propulsion systems to offer round-the-clock field service, spare parts logistics, and expert technical assistance through a global network. This expanded service complements WinGD’s existing digital optimisation tools, hybrid energy integration strategies, and crew training programs.
“Our customers are increasingly looking to us to help them navigate the challenges of deep-sea shipping,” said Dominik Schneiter, CEO of WinGD. “From the clean energy transition to supply chain disruptions and complex ship systems, we’re well-positioned to support optimal vessel performance and peace of mind.”
The new service model has been developed in close collaboration with ship operators, who participated in pilot programs to ensure the offering is tailored to real-world needs. Engineered for global responsiveness, the support structure includes on-the-ground personnel stationed worldwide, with technical centers in Switzerland and Asia, and spare parts warehoused in strategic global locations.
Benny Hilström, Vice President of Market Development at WinGD, highlighted the ambitious scope of the initiative: “With Global Service by WinGD, we’re not just meeting customer expectations—we’re redefining them. This is service on their terms, setting a new industry standard.”
By broadening its support services, WinGD aims to be a long-term partner in marine operations, helping ship owners navigate regulatory demands, efficiency goals, and the growing complexity of propulsion technologies.
