VAN BEEST - Green Pin

Van Beest is a leading manufacturer and supplier for a complete program of high quality fittings for lifting chain and steel wire rope.

 
History

For over 90 years the production of high tensile shackles has been our core business and competence. Dirk van Beest founded the Van Beest company in 1922, initially as a supplier of iron works to the dredging industry, which was strongly developed in the Sliedrecht area.
From the very beginning, the company has been forging shackles. Its ironwork expertise gave the Van Beest shackle an edge over the competition and this was the start of a network of professional users that now stretches across the globe.

 
Green Pin®

In the 1970’s, the trade name Green Pin® was launched to emphasize product quality, recognition and demand worldwide. Our Green Pin® shackles are manufactured in our production unit in Sliedrecht, The Netherlands. It is a genuine “Made in Holland” product.
Currently, not only shackles are sold under the name Green Pin®, but also other items, such as sockets, turnbuckles, wire rope clips, loadbinders, etc.

 
Markets

All product lines are used in many different lifting applications in various sectors like oil & gas, industry, mining, shipping and fishing.

The designs and quality standards of our products are the result of requirements put forward by our customers in markets throughout the world. Our products comply with a wide range of internationally recognized standards and can be supplied with various certificates upon request.
Since 1993 our company has been ISO certified by Lloyds; currently we are ISO 9001-2015 certified.
