Lashing

The fundamental and ultimate goal of delivering cargoes is to have them arrive safely at the destination. However, it is known that movement of any kind would shake and cause the cargoes to move, either within a container, in a vessel or on a barge.

Therefore, securing cargoes onto the space they are put in is of utmost importance. The most common way of doing it is lashing and choking, in the right way. Depending on the type, size and shape of the cargoes, lashing and choking can be done in various ways to achieve a secured state.

Among the materials that can be used for lashing include cord strap and wires. Cord straps are strong, weather resistant, does not damage goods, temperature resistant and does not rust. Wires, on the other hand, is hard, tough, weather resistant and especially suitable for large and heavy machinery.
