Covering multi-brand servicing and the re-hooking of lifeboats
Lifeboat manufacturer and service provider Schat-Harding has widened the range of its global service network to cover multi-brand servicing and the re-hooking of lifeboats.
For the first time, shipowners will be able to obtain most of their lifeboats, hooks, winches and davits serviced by a trained engineer working to the highest global standards, backed by a global service network. They will also be able to use Schat-Harding’s range of modern hooks to replace older models, which may no longer meet IMO standards.
Birger Grathen, CEO, Schat-Harding Service, said, “This is a major step forward for shipowners. They don’t have to risk using small and unauthorised lifeboat service and testing stations, or hooks from companies with no track record.
“Our global network of service stations and partners is now authorised to service over 500 lifesaving products made by other OEMs, on top of all the products delivered by the 15 major brands we own,” he said.
