Lashings

Donaghys' offer a range of natural and synthetic lashings for household and commercial packaging applications. Natural lashings are made from untreated sisal which is biodegradable and will decompose in compost. Synthetic lashings are light in weight with a relatively high stretch and breaking load. We also offer multi end lashings for commercial applications. All synthetic twines are UV stabilised for use in Australian conditions.

Twines & Strings

Donaghys twines are manufactured from first grade raw materials and form complimentary ranging to our many Industrial, Marine, Packaging and Telecommunications clients. The twines are purpose specific and are packed appropriately for the application and market they are aligned to.
