Møllerodden is known worldwide for its quality onshore and offshore lifting equipment. The company was established in 1960 and continues to build its reputation for high quality and quick delivery of different kinds of sheaves, blocks and swivels.
Møllerodden achieved a turnover of Nkr24m last year and expects to increase this by 20% for this year. The company has five permanent employees: a general manager, a sales manager, two engineers and a document manager. Sales and design is carried out by the company alongside Brødrene Haukås Mek, while Verksted serves as manufacturer and owner.
Turnkey lifting equipment
Møllerodden, with its range of specialised products, still delivers lifting equipment on a large scale to offshore and onshore cranes, oil rigs and fishing fleets. The company’s strengths are quality and fast delivery. In co-operation with Brødrene Haukås, it can design and produce everything according to the customer’s wishes. All production takes place within Norway.
Brødrene Haukås was established in 1966 and has 25 employees. The company has manufactured Møllerodden products for more than 40 years, and can perform turning, milling, welding and assembly of high-skill products. From 1987 to 2004, Brødrene Haukås was the most important sub-supplier for Møllerodden, a company that has had lots of different owners since 1960. However, since 2011, Møllerodden has been owned by Brødrene Haukås.
Lifting equipment repair and maintenance
Service and maintenance of both the company’s own and other products are an important part of the business. Møllerodden’s repair and maintenance business is enjoying increasing numbers of new customers due to the fact that the company is considered a partner in the maintenance of Brødrene Haukås products.
Lifting equipment spare parts
The company is in possession of a large and complete archive of technical drawings dating back to the 1970s. This is a great advantage, as Møllerodden regularly receives requests from customers who want exactly the same type of equipment or parts that have previously been designed and manufactured by the company.
Møllerodden delivers the following product range with full documentation and drawings:
- Blocks (all types and sizes)
- Sheaves (all sizes)
- Hooks
- Swivels
- Guiding blocks
- Bearings
- Latches
- Water bags
All products delivered by the company are produced according to Sjøfartsdirektoratet (SFT) and Norwegian standards. All blocks, hooks and swivels are delivered with a load test certificate.
Lifting equipment certifications
In 2013, Møllerodden Certification was established in collaboration with engineer Jon Kristian Simonsen. The company will certify and re-certify onshore and offshore lifting equipment and perform load testing on cranes. Both Møllerodden and Møllerodden Certification are certified according to ISO 9001.
