Many operations teams are looking for ways to secure drums faster and more safely. Manual work takes time, introduces variation and increases risks in the supply chain. DASL offers an automated approach that accelerates processes, eliminates errors and complies with all relevant standards.

What DASL is

DASL is Drumclip’s automated solution for securing 200 liter steel or plastic drums to pallets using tie-down straps. The system automatically places two Drumclips, applies vertical and then horizontal strapping and immediately delivers a transport ready pallet.

Why DASL adds value

DASL supports production and logistics with three key advantages.

  • Efficiency and automation: Up to 45 pallets per hour with stable and repeatable output.
  • Safety and regulatory compliance: Consistent securing according to DIN EN 12195-1, EUMOS 40509 and ISTA 3E.
  • Sustainability: Reduced plastic usage, lower costs and a lower environmental impact.

When DASL is relevant

DASL is suitable for environments where drums are handled in batches, such as chemicals, food, coatings and petrochemicals. The system is especially relevant when speed and reliability are critical or when regulatory compliance is decisive.

What it delivers

Organizations that choose DASL invest in process reliability.

  • Lower failure costs due to fewer errors and less variation.
  • Consistent load stability on every pallet.
  • Predictable workflows through full automation.
  • Reduced plastic use for a more sustainable operation.

Conclusion

DASL elevates drum handling to a higher level of safety and efficiency. For companies that regularly produce, move or ship drums, it is not an additional tool but a strategic step toward more stable and sustainable logistics.
