“Heavy” or “Snug” Doesn’t Mean Safe
Forces in Transit Demand Proper Cargo Restraint Products
When your cargo is on the move, it’s constantly exposed to shifting forces—braking, cornering, rough handling, and unpredictable weather. If it’s not properly secured, even the heaviest loads can slide, tip, or get damaged. That can mean costly delays, lost goods, or unhappy customers.
That’s where we come in.
At Cargo Restraint Systems Pty Ltd, we help Australian businesses secure their cargo with confidence. Whether you’re shipping across the country or overseas, our team of experts provides tailored cargo securing solutions that meet Australian standards and global compliance. From heavy machinery to sensitive goods, we make sure your cargo arrives safely—every time. Because when your cargo is secure, your reputation is too.

I would highly recommend Cargo Restraint Systems for their high-quality cargo lashings and fast delivery, but what really sets them apart from other suppliers is the customer relations experience and knowledge of the products they sell. Andre is always willing to come to our site and show us how to use the products most efficiently and correctly.
I have been using Cargo Restraint Systems for a number of years now and found their quality of products and web lashing materials has been very reliable on restraining large various items on Flat racks for exporting and the service has been above expectations and if I have any problems with tools breaking down they are there to fix them same day.
“Thank you for demonstrating your flat rack lashing system. It is so simple, yet so effective. It really is the (only) way to secure cargo on flat racks”.
Andre had a wealth of information about securing cargo inside containers. Your container lashing system has made our life so much easier and brought down our cost.
Because of the heavy weight (up to 3 ton) of our steel products, we used steel strapping. Our products go to very remote sites. We often had problems, because the steel straps broke in transit. Your strapping has not only solved this problem, it also saves us money and is so much better to use.
We used Cordstrap for lashing Military Vehicles into containers and it worked extremely well and was a better solution that any ratchet straps. At arrival the client overseas was also impressed how solid the lashings were. It really is a great product at an extremely competitive price. Thanks guys, we love your product.
Just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for your customer service today, Quick, responsive and knowledgeable about the products. Our export wouldn’t be going ahead without you. Have a fantastic weekend!
I would highly recommend “Cargo Restraint Systems” for their high-quality strapping systems to any business or individual. They are fast and easy to operate with the bonus of being safe to use. They are better than metal strapping, which can cause cuts or accidents. We secured many types of items such as pallets, crates, tubes for many years using Cordstrap products and we have never had any problems. Big thank you to Astrid and Andre for all your help all these years.
