Transforming the digital supply chain at LogiChem U.S. 2019
Cordstrap were proud sponsors of LogiChem U.S. 2019: September 09 – 10 Houston, TX.
This year’s event focused on Digital Transformation in Supply Chain plus the international, domestic, geopolitical and macroeconomic factors & opportunities which impact global supply chains & logistics. Find out more about this inour Q&A with Brett Calamari, Director Chemical Segment.
Cordstrap deploy IoT Tech to transform the supply chain
The importance of digital tech and innovation in the supply chain is paramount. At Cordstrap we are embracing the need for this change through our investment in a revolutionary new solution, Cordstrap Cargo Monitoring.
Until now, shippers have either been unaware of the issues and forces experienced by their cargo in transit, or understood them with no support or expertise to resolve any problems. This results in challenges and threats to cargo, increased costs and inefficient supply chains.
Combining big data and IoT technology Cordstrap Cargo Monitoring offers a unique solution capability. It uses Sensors (hardware), Analytics (software) and Operations (device retrieval) and combines this with Cordstrap’s world class leading body of knowledge around cargo protection and securing. It delivers insights into the magnitude and likelihood (the where and when) of risk to cargo at a container level; this includes shocks, delays, humidity, temperature and security risks. It validates the necessity and/or functionality of your cargo protection solutions, providing you with insight-led, tailored advice and solutions. And delivers transparency regarding supply chain performance.
The importance of operational optimization in the supply chain
The digital transformation can only be successful if it is linked to an operational one. Unlike pure digital players, the chemical industry has to deal with huge volumes of physical materials. Many of the materials are hazardous and require careful handling. This causes a conservative approach to change and places huge importance on cautious and well-considered change management. While pure digital players can readily switch business models, the chemical industry has to ensure that its operational supply chain remains completely failsafe.

Chemical cargo supply chain optimization
Cordstrap are world-leaders in chemical cargo supply chain optimization. Our engineered container securing solutions ensure safer and more secure shipping for the chemical industry. They have been carefully designed to minimize overall operation costs by maximizing time and cost efficiencies on the ground.
Cordstrap CornerLash AAR
For loads up to 30 tons
CornerLash represents a technological development in cargo protection. It has been carefully engineered to be the most time and cost-efficient solution on the market, enabling heavy cargo of up to 30 tons to be secured quickly and consistentlywithin 10 minutes.
CornerLash has been designed by our engineers to reduce container loading times to just 10 minutes using lashing that is cut precisely to length reducing preparation times.
Optimal security
By engineering a solution utilizing the corner posts, where the container is strongest, we created CornerLash – the ultimate protection for heavy loads of up to 30 tons.
Cordstrap AnchorLash HD
Specifically designed for medium-weight loads in containers, AnchorLash HD is a breakthrough innovation in cargo securing. The most time and cost-efficient solution on the market, AnchorLash HD enables medium-weight cargo (up to 18 tons) to be secured in an easy and consistent way within 10 minutes.
Securing a container with AnchorLash HD takes only 10 minutes because loops are integrated into this solution. ‘Plug and Play’ components including cut-to-length lashing significantly reduces wastage, preparation and clean up time.
Optimal Security
AnchorLash HD provides optimal security for loads of up to 18 tons in transit. It maximizes the use of the anchor points in the container because of the woven loops, therefore optimizing the total securing value.
Cordstrap AnchorLash
For loads up to 11 tons
AnchorLash is specifically engineered for lighter container shipments of up to 11 tons. It delivers time and cost-efficiencies, by enabling light cargo to be secured safely and consistently within only 8 minutes.
Securing a container with AnchorLash takes just 8 minutes, with lashing that is cut precisely to length to reduce preparation times.
Optimal security
AnchorLash has been engineered to deploy the strongest existing securing point in the container – the anchor point – provide optimal security for loads of up to 11 tons.
