The 37.5 meter-long rotor blade, which is designed for a wind turbine with an output of 1.5MW, was fabricated with a special polyurethane infusion resin from Covestro and glass fiber mats from Chongqing Polycomp International (CPIC), a Chinese glass fiber manufacturer at the Shanghai FRP Research Institute.

A vacuum pressure infusion system with continuous degassing, developed by process technology companyHÜBERS, was used to produce the rotor blade.
