International Lashing Systems

We’ve known the twistlocks since 1974

Just like the port of Antwerp, where ILS has its head office, our company boasts an interesting and rich history. Over 40 years ago, British traders set up shop at ‘t Eilandje (literally: “the Islet”), a characteristic harbor neighborhood in the North of Antwerp.

And just as the port of Antwerp has evolved over the centuries into a leading world port and a major cargo hub, ILS has grown from a tiny warehouse selling all kinds of goods, into a world player specialized in cargo securing technology.

In 2017, we can honestly say we are a world-class supplier of lashing materials, ensuring plain sailing for container, multipurpose and roro-ships hitting the waters. Our motto? Keeping your cargo safe and secure by providing quality products at the best price. Our experienced team of professionals is there to advise shipowners, shipyards and design companies alike. We will make sure your ship is on course in no time.
