We design, produce and deliver chains and forest tracks, tractor implements and equipment for lifting and mooring under the brands; TRYGG, IGLAND and FRAM.

TRYGG tire chains
Nøsted & has for over 80 years produced chains under the brand name TRYGG. TRYGG is a world leader, and is designed, developed and produced at Norway’s only chain factory. The 10,000 sqm chain factory located at the outlet of the Mandal River produces chains for use in transport, agriculture, construction, forestry, fisheries, aquaculture, industry, oil and offshore.
The TRYGG portfolio consists of a wide range of tire chains for wheeled vehicles, from smaller vehicles to the largest construction and forestry machines. TRYGG forest belts were introduced in the autumn of 2020 and are the result of several years of testing and development.
