Company Profile

LeBus International was established in the U.K. in 1962 having an American Parent Company originally formed in Texas in 1900. Over this period we have gathered a wealth of experience in our prime activity of solving the problems of Multi-Layer Spooling of Wire Ropes and Cables.

The name of ‘LeBus’ is now internationally known for the special method of grooving applied to Winch Drums of all types and sizes.
In addition to Spooling Products, LeBus have for many years specialised in the design and manufacture of custom built Marine Research Winches.
