“When you work for the market leader, you get a unique opportunity to see projects being built from the ground level. I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with key end users of our products on very iconic and once in a lifetime projects. Whether it was the building of the new Freedom Tower, World Trade Center Transportation Hub, the Tappan Zee Bridge, or the lifting of a 1,100-ton deckhouse for the new Zumwalt Naval Destroyer”.

Companies rely on Crosby to provide products that exceed the minimum standards required in the high-risk world of rigging. Fatigue ratings, ductility, and impact properties are crucial to real world applications. Quality rigging and application training should be obligatory to prevent any hazards or injuries.
Since the inception of Crosby training in 1991, over 400,000 individuals have attended a Crosby rigging seminar focused on proper application of rigging products.
