Baker Hughes, whose facilities span 120+ countries, needed robust, reliable and high-performance lifting solutions for their complex industrial projects.

What Are Spreader Beams?
A spreader beam is a lifting device that balances heavy or awkward loads in crane lifts by dispersing the load weight over multiple hoisting locations. This reduces the strain on the load and the lifting equipment. Spreader beams are crucial in industries such as oil and gas, construction, and heavy engineering—sectors where safety and precision are paramount.
