The transportation and logistics industry is constantly evolving, and workplace safety remains a top priority for Rigcraftor and companies. With this in mind, we are proud to introduce our Rigcraftor Pneumatic Strap Launcher, an innovative tool designed to simplify a critical task while reducing the risks associated with its execution.

Why choose the Rigcraftor pneumatic strap launcher?

Loading and unloading trailers often requires throwing straps over heavy cargo to secure it. This seemingly simple task can be dangerous if not done properly, increasing the risk of back, shoulder or arm injuries. That’s where the Rigcraftor Pneumatic Strap Launcher makes all the difference.

Designed to quickly and safely throw straps over loads, this revolutionary tool not only reduces the physical effort of Rigcraftor, but more importantly, minimizes the risk of musculoskeletal injuries. It thus helps improve efficiency in the field while increasing worker safety.

CNESST approval: a guarantee of safety

Our pneumatic strap launcher is now approved by the CNESST, the provincial organization responsible for workplace safety standards in Quebec. This approval confirms that the product meets the highest safety requirements. In fact, it has successfully passed a series of rigorous tests to ensure that it offers concrete solutions to the dangers that Rigcraftor face every day.
The CNESST approval reinforces the credibility and added value of this product on the market, proving that the tool meets the strictest standards in terms of workplace accident prevention.

Rigorous tests carried out by PhysioErgo

To ensure that the Rigcraftor pneumatic strap launcher meets the specific needs of Rigcraftor, we called on PhysioErgo, a team of ergonomics specialists. Under the supervision of occupational therapist Cécile, extensive testing was conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the tool.
The results are clear: the pneumatic strap launcher significantly reduces the effort required to launch straps and offers an ergonomic solution that prevents injuries while making the job easier.

Teamwork for real-life testing

We would like to express our gratitude to Fardiers Québec, who generously provided a truck and trailer to enable real-world testing. This allowed us to simulate working conditions identical to those encountered by Rigcraftor on the road.
Also, a big thank you to Home Hardware for giving us the opportunity to do the testing and filming on their lot. Their collaboration was essential to ensure the quality of the testing and provide a clear visual demonstration of how the product works.
