Safety and support

At Slingco, every product is designed to perform, engineered to last and tested to destruction. That’s why we’re market leaders. Customers know they’re getting a product manufactured to exacting standards that will outperform the alternatives.

We serve customers from across more than 80 countries worldwide. Whatever their area of operation – Utilities, Oil & Gas, Subsea, Mining, Aerospace, Transport – nothing is more important than the safety of their people and others who could be impacted by their work. In other words, they need to be able to trust their suppliers completely.

And that’s why every Slingco product is:

Tested to destruction as part of the design validation process
Constructed from the highest quality raw materials
Manufactured by skilled engineers working to robust processes.

In-depth product testing

Our products have to meet the highest standards in two distinct areas: safety and performance. We are always conscious of the fact that our products are used in safety-critical applications. This places us in a position of real responsibility and nothing is left to chance.

From crack detection and tensile testing to salt spray testing, our products are designed, manufactured and tested to ensure full compliance with all relevant quality and safety standards.

We perform more than 100 different types of tests annually
Third party testing by highly respected external laboratories
Advanced software tools for in-house ‘virtual’ testing
Prototype product development for initial trials
Continual improvement via on-going product lifecycle reviews
