The real heavy lifting starts here

Long before any heavy load gets off the ground, BEXCO® synthetic customised slings undergo state-of-the-art R&D to ensure they meet all the complex loading and handling requirements for specific lifting projects. Attention to detail in approval procedures, documentation and administration are given equal importance, with our project team committed to supporting the project follow-up from day one.

We know our success and future depends on how our customers experience our products and services. We believe it is both the ropes we design and the personal service we deliver that sets us apart.

Solutions that make light work of heavy lifting

We offer a range of purpose-built, heavy lift and installation slings manufactured with High-Modulus Polyethylene (HMPE) using Dyneema® SK78. With the same strength as traditional wire ropes but weighing 8 to 10 times less, HMPE ropes are more flexible, easier to handle, have a much better fatigue life, whilst retaining similar elastic elongation properties.

We’ve got the offshore heavy lift industry covered

We supply the world’s leading engineering contractors with heavy lift slings to serve a wide range of projects including offshore oil & gas lifting and installation, subsea installation, offshore renewable energy projects and offshore decommissioning & salvage.

But don’t just take our word for it

Our customer Smulders is an international steel construction company with offices in Belgium, the Netherlands, Poland and the United Kingdom. Smulders specialises in metal constructions for the oil and gas industry and wind energy sector. Smulders uses BEXCO FLEXOR slings for the lifting of turbine components in their factory in Hoboken, Belgium.

“

BEXCO® soft slings are, for the same break strengths, considerably thinner and lighter in comparison with the slings we used in the past, making them so much easier to handle. We choose our slings in function of the capacity of our cranes. BEXCO® slings are flexible in usage and can be used on different equipment, which means we can work with a minimum number of slings for a maximum array of applications.

By changing to BEXCO® FLEXOR round slings, we were able to decrease the hook-up team from 4 to 1 person only. Also, we noted a remarkable difference in lifespan thanks to the use of the DURA-1200 sleeve.
