Multisec has reached a milestone in the global lifting industry, as its range of pink modular spreader beams has achieved DNV Type Approval, one of the most respected and demanding certifications in the offshore and heavy lifting world. This achievement places Multisec among a select group of manufacturers whose equipment meets the highest international standards for safety, engineering integrity, and offshore use.
Issued by DNV at Høvik, Norway, the certification verifies the Multisec Modular Spreader Beam range fully complies with DNV-ST-0378: Offshore and Platform Lifting Appliances — one of the industry’s most stringent design and safety standards. This confirms the beams have been assessed against demanding requirements covering structural design, global, and local load analysis, material impact toughness, qualified welding procedures, manufacturing quality control, and full traceability of all components. Meeting these criteria ensures the Multisec range is fit for the most challenging offshore and heavy industrial environments.
The approval covers the entire core range, from the Multi-13 to the Multi-250 models, offering Safe Working Load capacities from 13 tons up to 250 tons. The certification confirms Multisec Modular Spreader Beams are approved for installation and use on any DNV-classed vessel or offshore unit, including crane vessels, pipe-lay and cable-lay ships, drilling platforms, heavy-lift barges, and floating production systems. This ensures the beams can be specified for critical lifting operations in offshore wind, subsea construction, renewable energy installation, shipbuilding, and heavy industrial engineering, where DNV-certified lifting equipment is a strict operational requirement.
“Achieving DNV certification is a significant milestone for our team and a strong endorsement of the engineering behind the Multisec brand. This accreditation further strengthens our position in global markets and gives our customers even greater confidence when choosing our products,” said Olivia Gardiner, Multisec sales and operations manager. “This milestone is exemplified by the recent DNV approval of two of our largest Modular Spreader Beams to date — a 1,200-ton beam measuring 12.5 meters and a 2,000-ton beam spanning 18.5 meters.”
