Recently, Grade 10 master links and master link assemblies independently developed and manufactured by Shandong Shenli Rigging Co., Ltd. successfully passed the comprehensive assessment by DNV (Det Norske Veritas) and were awarded DNV certification. This achievement marks another significant milestone for Shenli Rigging in the offshore rigging sector—securing the first domestic certification for these specific Grade 10 products, following their earlier success with Grade 6 and Grade 8 high-strength shackles. It further demonstrates the company's technical prowess in the global high-end rigging market.

As a prominent enterprise in China's rigging industry, Shandong Shenli Rigging regards product quality and technological innovation as its lifeline. The company attaches great importance to DNV certification, viewing it as a crucial step toward enhancing management standards and driving internationalization. Following a rigorous process—including document reviews, on-site assessments, and product type testing—a DNV expert panel confirmed that Shenli Rigging’s Grade 10 master links and master link assemblies fully met DNV requirements regarding core metrics such as material properties, structural design, manufacturing processes, load-bearing capacity, and safety. This success serves as powerful proof of the quality and reliability of Shenli Rigging’s products and provides further impetus for the continuous optimization of its quality control system. From securing China’s first TÜV Rheinland CE-MD certificate for Grade 10 lifting chains to now obtaining the first domestic DNV certification for Grade 10 master links and master link assemblies, the company has established a comprehensive Grade 10 product ecosystem spanning everything from high-strength chains to high-end rigging components.
