Securing Olympic Stadium during 8000km journey across Atlantic
When the athletes gather in the Estadio do Maracanã tonight, there will be one team just as proud as those at the opening ceremony – Team Cordstrap.
Although we won’t be in the stadium, we can be proud knowing that we helped to make it happen by delivering vital materials on time and intact.
When the steel framework for the structure needed to be shipped 8000 km across the Atlantic from Vigo in Spain to Rio, it was natural that Cordstrap – the global leader in cargo securing – should be selected to ensure that this demanding and important journey took place safely and efficiently.
Our experts were able to advise on the correct application, using Cordstrap woven lashing to secure this break bulk cargo ensuring the load was stable during the entire journey at sea and arrived without any damage occurring.
When it came to securing the transportation of materials to the world’s largest event, only one team could deliver.
We wish success to every nation competing in Rio this summer – and we’re proud of our own team for helping to deliver the world’s biggest sporting occasion safely and on time.
