Engineered solutions for fishing, marine and ocean science applications

Timberland Equipment
Hawboldt Industries

Timberland is an active partner in a host of ventures operating on the oceans and inland waterways of the world.

Two Timberland companies – Timberland Equipment and Hawboldt Industries – share long histories in service to the marine industry. Both facilities design and manufacture a wide range of anchor winches, capstans and reels as well as specialized  gear for workboats and tugs such as towing equipment and ship-assist and dredging winches.

In recent years, Timberland Equipment has emerged as a leading force in the design and delivery of turnkey mooring systems for Floating Production, Storage and Offloading vessels (FPSOs) along with winches, chainjacks, underwater fairleads and line-handling machinery for offshore oil & gas platforms.

Hawboldt offers a unique focus on advanced ocean technologies with ROV handling equipment and specialized oceanographic winches for undersea science, survey and naval security applications.

For decades, Hawboldt has served the fishing industry with its net reels, winches and loading gear. Our facility is also renowned as a premier supplier of custom-built propellers of all sizes for commercial and recreational vessels, including complete repair and reconditioning services.
