INTRODUCTION
THE
GREEN PIN ®
HISTORY
Green Pin can trace its origins back to 1922. In Sliedrecht,
®
which is located right at the heart of the Dutch maritime
industry, blacksmith Dirk van Beest started producing
components for dredging. He developed the shackles that
would later be branded as Green Pin . Van Beest’s company
®
grew quickly, in line with the expansion of the Dutch
dredging and maritime industry.
Today, Green Pin is part of the Royal Van Beest Group
®
and is headquartered in The Netherlands with branches
in the United States, France, Germany, Spain and Brazil.
