WOLFFKRAN has acquired a stake in TROWIS GmbH, a young German company dedicated to the development and production of high-performance fibre ropes for applications in the lifting and materials handling industry. WOLFFKRAN recognised the potential of TROWIS ropes while these were still in the research phase and actively supported the foundation of the company in July 2019. The executive management of TROWIS GmbH is made up of the managing partners Dr Thorsten Heinze and Peter Streubel.

TROWIS high-performance fibre ropes are innovative products on the fibre rope market. They are characterised by the integration of a doubly redundant, self-monitoring composite fibre construction, a unique technology guaranteeing maximum operational safety on construction sites.
