An environmentally durable coating that offers improved protection.

As a leading producer of ratchet tensioners for the transport and logistics industry, we pride ourselves on our high-quality specifications and craftsmanship. That’s why we’ve developed Langard, a new coating that replaces the widely used Hexavalent Chromium, also known as Chromium VI.

The development of Langard, which encompasses trivalent passivation, has been developed through collaboration between our team of experts and chemists in response to the upcoming EU and HSE regulations set to ban all forms of Chromium VI from 2024.

Benefits

  • 140% improved performance

  • Over 600 salt spray hours for the standard product and over 1000 for the premium version (compared to 250 for the product it replaces)

    *Results of lab tests in controlled conditions.

Langard is the first of its kind within the transport sector and is exclusive to Langver products. It will be used to coat all Langver tensioners from 1st July 2023 onwards. For more information, read our news article below.
