Various dredging equipment projects

These are busy days for dredging companies! At the moment there are many dredgers deployed around the world, and when the dredgers are doing their hard work at sea they require a lot of new equipment, as can be seen in our factory at the moment. We are currently working on several dredging projects for various well-known dredging clients. Read further to get an idea of the dredging projects we've been working on at Straatman the last couple of weeks:

Quick Release Mooring Hooks with so-called hauling-in trolleys

At Straatman, we have all the expertise to meet special requirements of our clients. We recently have manufactured multiple 60T Quick Release Mooring Hooks with so-called hauling-in trolleys for a client in India. These trolleys, designed, manufactured, and tested in our factory in Zwijndrecht, will be used to haul in ships on a dry dock for the Indian Navy. 

Quality control – adhesion test

At Straatman Dredging & Construction, everything revolves around the quality of our high-quality products and services. To check and demonstrate that the adhesion of a coating is good and therefore adheres properly to the product, we regularly carry out a pull-off adhesion test or so-called adhesion test. The adhesive strength of paint and coatings is a crucial element to give the material the basic functions of protection.
