Lankhorst Ropes is a supplier of synthetic-fibre and steel-wire ropes for maritime and offshore applications. Its official contact page identifies a Middle East Maritime Sales contact and provides a UAE telephone number, making this the relevant regional point of enquiry for customers in Dubai. The evidence supplied does not specify a Dubai office address, so the local presence is described through that published regional sales contact rather than a street location. The Dubai-facing contact connects customers with a company whose global portfolio covers rope requirements for mooring, towing, hoisting, luffing and lifting. The products and operational uses described below are the global company’s capabilities; the available information does not state that every product is stocked or manufactured in Dubai.
Lankhorst Ropes describes itself as a global supplier of synthetic-fibre and steel-wire ropes for maritime and offshore industries. The company says it was founded in 1803 and has more than 200 years of experience in rope manufacture and supply. Its site identifies Lankhorst Ropes as part of Royal Lankhorst Euronete Group and, through that group, WireCo WorldGroup.
The company's stated core business is developing and producing high-performance ropes for mooring and anchor systems, towing, and crane hoisting and luffing. These are global company credentials and activities, not a claim about a separately documented Dubai production facility.
The global portfolio includes synthetic and steel-wire rope options for distinct maritime tasks. For dry-cargo applications, the published range names synthetic products such as Lanko®line 3XR, Lanko®Force and Euroflex® ropes, alongside steel-wire hoisting and luffing ropes. The same overview also lists winchlines and associated fittings, including links, sockets and thimbles.
For cruise vessels, the company describes a one-stop range of fibre and steel-wire ropes for hoisting, luffing and mooring on river and ocean vessels. Its stated aim is to match rope selection to customer requirements, drawing on staff expertise and application experience. The product information is relevant to operators assessing ropes for vessel handling and cargo equipment; it does not establish local stock availability.
Lankhorst Ropes' official contact page lists “Middle East Maritime Sales” and gives the telephone number +971 (0)4 457 8866. The same listing provides sales-ropes@wireco.com as the email contact. This is company-published evidence of a Middle East sales channel with a UAE contact number and supports using the regional team for enquiries from Dubai.
The supplied page does not give a Dubai street address, name an individual representative, or describe the scope of branch facilities. Customers seeking a local visit or a specific delivery arrangement should confirm those details directly with the sales contact. The global head-office details shown elsewhere on the website are not used as Dubai branch contact information.
Rope requirements can vary with whether a vessel needs mooring, towing, hoisting or luffing equipment. Lankhorst's product pages organize offerings around market applications and name both fibre-rope and steel-wire solutions, as well as rope accessories. For customers, that makes it useful to start an enquiry with the operation and equipment involved, rather than asking only for a generic rope category.
For cruise applications, the company highlights service-life performance and reduced downtime as objectives of its rope solutions. Those statements describe the company's product proposition; the supplied evidence does not provide model-specific performance figures, selection calculations or guarantees. Technical suitability should therefore be discussed against the vessel's requirements and operating conditions.
When contacting Middle East Maritime Sales, it may help to state whether the requirement is for mooring, towing, hoisting or luffing, and whether the application involves dry cargo or a cruise vessel. Include any known rope type or product name and the relevant equipment or operating context. You can also ask which technical details are needed to assess suitability, whether the requested item can be supplied through the regional channel, and what documentation is available for the specific product.
These are practical questions for preparing an enquiry, not commitments about stock, delivery times or technical approval. Contact the regional team at +971 (0)4 457 8866 or sales-ropes@wireco.com.
