24 Feb The first hooks
The first workshop of Mampaey was located in one of the harbors of Dordrecht. This was ideal for repair work to ships and later for the introduction of the safe towing hooks. For the towing industry Mampaey developed towing hooks with a ‘quick release’ mechanism. This safety mechanism can easily disconnect the towline under full load with minimal effort.
