RUD – Engineered Lifting, Lashing, and Load‑Securing Systems for Industrial Applications

With more than 150 years of experience in chain technology, RUD has become recognized worldwide for developing high‑performance solutions that support safe lifting, moving, and securing of loads in demanding industrial environments. Their focus on engineered safety, material quality, and ergonomics has made RUD a trusted provider across industries requiring dependable, high‑integrity equipment for daily operations.

As a supplier to I&I Sling, RUD provides core components used throughout many rigging and lifting configurations. This includes RUD lifting chains and RUD chain slings, which are developed to meet stringent lifting and material‑handling requirements while maintaining consistent strength and durability. Their extensive portfolio also includes RUD hoist rings—with a broad range of lifting point variants engineered for reliability, multidirectional loading, and enhanced work safety during lifting, turning, and positioning tasks.

RUD further supports critical transport and securing applications through advanced RUD lashing systems and broader RUD load securing solutions, designed to apply necessary retaining forces during movement and to keep loads safely controlled under dynamic transport conditions. These systems incorporate engineered chain technology, identification features, and solutions tailored for both routine and specialized securement tasks.
A hallmark of RUD’s innovation is the development of high‑performance chain grades, including the advanced RUD ICE grade chain, which offers increased strength‑to‑weight performance and improved ergonomics for lifting and lashing applications. This focus on enhanced material properties supports long service life, reduced handling effort, and elevated safety margins across multiple industries.

By combining engineering expertise, a deep product range, and long‑standing commitment to safety, RUD continues to deliver lifting and securing solutions that improve reliability, reduce handling time, and support efficient, safe operations for I&I Sling customers.
