Martex Technologies is the brand name of the supplier branch developed by Nordsjoen Racing. The brand was launched at the beginning of the 2013 season, and its first product was the Martex MX-01 engine which powered, besides Nordsjoen, Halcyon Racing and Torrent Motorsports. The Martex MX-02 engine was developed for the 2014 season and powered Green Stripes Racing and ST Racing besides Nordsjoen. However, at the end of the controversy-laden bidding process for the 2015 engines, Nordsjoen was the only team running the Martex MX-03. Under existing rules, this would have left the engine and Nordsjoen potentially critically handicapped, but sweeping reforms of engine regulations introduced greater parity. This saw Nordsjoen remain competitive in 2015, leading to both the team's and Martex's first victory in over a season, plus a slew of podiums and a pole position.

In 2016, Martex again powers Nordsjoen alone, being unable to attract any new customers.
