About Us

Swageturn was formed back in the 1970’s to manufacture marine products.

Growth through innovation flexibility and fast response soon had Swageturn rigging and architectural products, manufactured and supplied throughout USA, Europe and Australia.

In 2016 White Star Products purchased the business of Swageturn and included into our existing marine product offer.

White Star Products through the “Swageturn” Brand offer a comprehensive range of rigging and architectural products as well as custom and prototype manufacture.
