lashing systems

Lashing systems are methods used to securely fasten cargo to prevent movement during transport. They typically involve various devices like straps, chains, ropes, and tensioners that are anchored to the vehicle or container. Proper lashing ensures that cargo stays in place despite forces from acceleration, braking, or uneven surfaces, reducing the risk of damage or accidents. Good lashing systems follow safety standards, distribute forces evenly, and are carefully applied by trained personnel to maintain load stability throughout transit.
