Lifting solutions for demanding industries
Certex Norge delivers more than products. We combine lifting equipment with technical expertise, service and solutions tailored to demanding operations.
Different industries place different demands on lifting equipment. The load to be handled, the working environment, how often the equipment is used and the applicable safety requirements all influence the choice of solution.
Certex combines lifting equipment, technical solutions and services to support safe, efficient and reliable operations throughout the entire equipment lifecycle. Our expertise includes product deliveries, engineering and customization, inspection and testing, maintenance, training, fall protection and equipment refurbishment.
Industry and manufacturing
In industrial and manufacturing environments, lifting systems must handle everything from raw materials and machinery to components and finished products. The equipment often needs to operate continuously while also fitting into production lines, automated systems and areas with limited space.
- Steel wire ropes, chain and textile slings
- Hoists, jib cranes and lightweight gantry cranes
- Lifting beams, frames and customized lifting equipment
- Vacuum lifters, magnets and handling systems
- Load monitoring and sensors
- Inspection, certification and preventive maintenance
- Training in the use of lifting equipment and safety
When standard equipment does not meet the requirement, the solution can be adapted to the load, production process and available working area. The goal is safer material handling, less manual work and good availability of critical equipment.
Port and marine operations
Port and marine environments combine heavy loads, many lifting cycles, saltwater exposure and demanding operating schedules. Reliable equipment is essential when handling containers, bulk cargo, project cargo and other challenging loads.
- High-performance steel wire ropes for cranes
- Chain, steel wire rope, textile and fibre slings
- Lifting beams and frames for large and demanding loads
- Load securing equipment
- Installation, lubrication and follow-up of crane ropes
- Magnetic rope testing (MRT) and other NDT
- Inspection, maintenance and repair
- Practical training in lifting and equipment inspection
By combining equipment deliveries with condition monitoring and planned maintenance, customers can detect wear earlier, reduce the risk of unexpected failures and keep critical lifting systems operational.
Renewable energy
Renewable energy projects involve lifting operations throughout the entire value chain – from manufacturing and construction to installation, commissioning and maintenance. Large components, demanding access and the need for precise lifting operations place high demands on both equipment and expertise.
- Specially developed lifting tools and attachments
- Rigging equipment for component installation
- Fall protection and evacuation equipment
- Lifting planning and technical guidance
- Inspection, load testing and maintenance
- NDT – non-destructive testing
- Rental and refurbishment of equipment
- Training in lifting and safety
Through the wider Lifting Solutions Group network, Certex can also support customers across regions and in different phases of larger projects.
Offshore
Offshore equipment operates in an environment where corrosion, limited access, dynamic loads and restricted maintenance opportunities must be taken into account. Requirements range from ongoing maintenance and supply operations to subsea projects and decommissioning.
- Steel wire ropes and wire rope solutions
- Chain slings, textile slings and rigging components
- Hoists, winches and lifting points
- Lifting beams and project-specific equipment
- Load monitoring and test solutions
- Fall protection and rescue equipment
- Inspection, certification, maintenance and refurbishment
- Guidance in rigging and lifting planning
A lifecycle approach helps ensure that equipment remains traceable, is inspected correctly and is assessed for continued safe use – both onshore and offshore.
Defence
Defence-related operations may include handling, transport, maintenance and positioning of vehicles, machinery, maritime equipment and other critical assets. This requires reliable equipment, controlled processes and solutions adapted to the specific load and workplace.
- Certified lifting and rigging equipment
- Customized lifting beams, frames and attachments
- Load securing systems
- Hoists, winches and other material handling equipment
- Inspection, testing and certification
- Repair, maintenance and refurbishment
- Training for users and inspectors
- Technical support for specialized lifting operations
By working closely with project teams, Certex can help identify a suitable lifting solution based on the load, lifting points, working environment and operational requirements.
One partner throughout the equipment lifecycle
Certex’s role does not stop at the delivery of lifting equipment. We can support customers through several stages of the equipment lifecycle:
- Assessment and selection: Identifying equipment suitable for the load and application.
- Engineering and delivery: Supplying standard products or developing customized lifting solutions.
- Inspection and testing: Checking condition, performance and continued suitability.
- Maintenance and repair: Supporting reliable operation and extending service life where appropriate.
- Training and guidance: Providing personnel with the knowledge they need for safe use and inspection of the equipment.
- Replacement or refurbishment: Recommending further action based on the condition of the equipment and operational needs.
Lifting expertise for demanding operations
Regardless of industry, a safe lift starts with understanding the task. Certex combines lifting equipment with technical expertise, inspection services and practical industry knowledge to help customers manage risk, meet requirements and keep operations running.
