Every transport method and region has its own rules and regulations. When shipping a container from its point of origin to its destination, it will fall under different rules and regulations while in transit. For containerized goods, Cordstrap container lashing solutions comply with the CTU-Code, IMDG and AAR guidelines, which are key to ensuring safe transport.
A team of Cordstrap experts is ready to help packers and shippers with all necessary knowledge and skills to safely secure cargo in a container, ensuring compliance with all rules and regulations – locally and globally.
Cordstrap’s mission is to keep the world’s cargo safe. We provide our customers with innovative solutions and expert advice and deliver the physical insurance global shipping needs – on rail, sea, road and air. The rapid global expansion of the chemical industry has seen sharp growth of manufacturers and suppliers in the USA, Germany, and developing markets, producing products for their own use and international export. As an example, production in the USA is expected to grow at a rate that will see industry shipments reach $1 trillion by 2018.*
Such a scale of activity creates a massive shipping requirement, with some unique challenges. Any suspension of supply in the chemical industry increases the cost of the products. Thus raw materials at one end of the process and products at the other must be shipped reliably and on time.
Cordstrap’s resource – with five manufacturing locations and operations in 50 countries worldwide – means that we are able to offer cargo securing solutions wherever the industry requires them. And 50 years experience of dealing with the typical loads of the chemical industry – whether drums, IBC’s, big bags, pails or super sacks – means we understand the need to keep control of total cost of ownership and ensure time and cost efficiency are maximized during cargo securing.
Cordstrap Applications
Cordstrap’s cargo securing products are world-class. But it is the applications that use these products that ensure we can engineer the maximum protection for their goods during shipping.
Whatever the means of shipping and whether in 55-gallon drums, super sacks, 25kg bags or IBC’s, our solutions provide the physical insurance needed in a complex supply chain economically, efficiently and safely. And with full CTU code compliance.
We work with chemical manufacturers that ship cargo in containers to provide a complete container solution – including innovative modular systems – for the industry.
Whether securing drums or IBC’s in containers, Cordstrap lashing is the most effective way to secure cargo for international shipping.
Our polyester lashing has many advantages over conventional cargo securing products such as heavy-duty steel straps, chains or wood blocking and bracing, in terms of preventing damage during transportation.
Benefits of Cordstrap Polyester Lashing include:

Dunnage Bags Cordstrap dunnage bags are specifically designed to secure and stabilize cargo in containers, closed railcars, trucks and ships. Where palletized cartons are containerized, dunnage bags should be used in conjunction with Cordstrap lashing.
They prevent both lateral and longitudinal movement and, using our unique precision inflation system, are much more effective in stabilizing cargo compared with wood blocking and bracing – which are both more costly and time-consuming.
Cordstrap will advise on the most effective dunnage bag to match a customer’s individual requirements.
