Gator-Rigging earns certification first

HOUSTON - Gator Rigging Inspection and Testing has received Competent Manufacturer Certification under the Lloyd’s Register Container Certification Scheme (LRCCS), the first company of its kind to achieve that level of certification. It is also the first offshore services firm in America to gain that type of certification. Headquartered in Morgan City, La., Gator Rigging manufactures and services wire rope slings for offshore containers at two manufacturing facilities. As an LRCCS Certified Competent Manufacturer, Gator Rigging can now produce certified offshore lifting sets at its facility in Cut Off, La., without the need for each piece to be inspected by a third party.
