Industries.
We set standards. In every industry.
With pioneering quality products for lifting and lashing technology, RUD is firmly established with leading companies worldwide. Customers on every continent rely on our innovative strength and intelligent solutions for lifting, moving and securing loads.
Particularly noteworthy: In large multinational companies, many RUD products have become the in-house standard. Discover which solutions RUD has developed for your industry – and how we can optimise your work area.
Tool & mould making.
Rotating and turning – more safety during the lifting process.
As the tool and mould making industry works very closely with the injection moulding industry, the turning of the fully assembled mould must already be taken into account for later use. This special application should therefore already be included in the CAD models of tools and moulds.
As a rule, moulds are supplied with pre-assembled stops. RUD offers a variety of lifting points that are suitable for standard lifting operations, but can also be used specifically for turning and flipping.

Mechanical engineering.
Slings for the entire value chain.
From in-house lifting and moving of components during machine assembly, to transport to the customer, to setting up and commissioning the finished system: the applications for lifting and lashing equipment in mechanical engineering are diverse.
At RUD you will find the optimum lifting point for every application. Load capacities from 0.1 tonnes to 250 tonnes are standard. Your advantage: In the vast majority of cases, the smallest sizes can be used with the highest load capacity.

Plant construction.
Small sizes, large load capacities.
Lifting, moving, transporting: The applications for lifting and lashing equipment in plant engineering are diverse. They range from the in-house transport of components during machine assembly and transport to the installation and commissioning of the finished system at the customer's premises.
RUD offers the optimum lifting point for every conceivable application. Load capacities from 0.1 tonnes to 250 tonnes are standard. The advantage: In the vast majority of cases, the smallest sizes can be used with the highest load capacity.

Automotive industry.
Complete systems for perfect load securing.
Section 20 of the German Road Traffic Act clearly states that loads must be secured. To ensure this, trailers and semi-trailers, for example, must be equipped with lashing points. And a sufficient number of them. As the manufacturers do not know the type of load being transported in advance, the vehicles are usually not optimised for every application in terms of lashing points.
This is where RUD comes into play. As an experienced system provider, we offer customised advice and optimum product solutions. From the design of the correct lashing points to the actual load securing. Good to know: RUD lashing points can also be retrofitted at suitable points in consultation with the vehicle manufacturer.

Heavy-duty transportation.
Customised systems for the highest requirements.
For the safe transport of heavy goods, not only the design of the lashing points on the trailer is extremely important, also the attachment of the lifting points to the load. This is because handling heavy assemblies requires particularly careful load securing. This is the only way to ensure that the load arrives at its destination undamaged.
The interaction between vehicle manufacturer, service provider and customer is therefore very important, especially in heavy goods transport. Only if the trailer is equipped with the right lashing points and these are positioned in the right place can the load be secured in accordance with the requirements. It is also important to ensure that the load is secured with the correct lashing equipment. ICE lashing chains offer a high level of quality and safety.

Onshore, Offshore & Subsea.
Made for the harshest applications.
Harsh environments and adverse environmental influences – this is the norm for marine and offshore applications. Corrosion and changing weather conditions place high demands on the material. Only extremely robust designs that have been constructed for these applications can fulfil the corresponding requirements under these special conditions. This is why many RUD products have the coveted DNV approval.
RUD also deals with these special requirements and develops special solutions for this industry – with the market for the market. For example, the innovative RUD ROV-HOOK was developed especially for use with underwater robots.

Energy production.
Safety during handling, transport and assembly.
Tasks in the field of power generation place very specific demands on the movement of components – and therefore also on the lifting and lashing equipment. It is a clear advantage if the heaviest loads can be lifted and moved with the same lifting points from production to commissioning. This ensures both safe handling and reliable internal transport.
RUD solutions fulfil this requirement in an exemplary manner. They support manufacturers of wind turbines, for example, not only throughout the entire production process, but also during downstream transport of the components to their destination and during assembly. The lifting points are designed and used precisely according to our customers’ requirements.
Construction industry.
Big challenges, clever products.
In the construction industry, machines are usually heavily utilised. Construction machinery has to be transported from one construction site to another at ever shorter intervals. Because large distances often have to be covered, the topic of load securing is particularly important in the construction industry.
The challenge when transporting construction machinery is that the lashing points on the construction machinery are often missing or difficult to access. RUD has been working intensively on this and has developed a clever solution for this demanding task.

Defence systems.
Reliable lifting and lashing solutions for military use.
It is part of our expertise to support armed forces on important missions with comprehensive lifting and safety solutions. Each one is designed to optimally fulfil the demanding requirements of military operations. Our products ensure the safe and efficient transport of equipment in a wide range of terrains and environments. With a particular focus on safety, durability and ease of use, our systems can withstand even the toughest conditions with ease.
Our lifting and load securing systems are not only extremely reliable, but also versatile. This makes them ideal for use in extreme weather conditions and operational challenges. The use of advanced technologies and high-quality materials reduces their system weight and optimises their performance. As safety is our top priority, we test all components according to strict standards. In this way, we ensure that military equipment can be transported and handled safely and efficiently.
