STRAPS AND STRAP SYSTEMS FROM HALFAR® - HOLD & CARRY
They are everywhere and yet often play a minor role in our attention: straps. Yet professional straps and strap systems play a proverbial supporting role - and not only when used in conjunction with a bag. Straps make life and work easier for those who use them. They take heavy loads, they provide comfortable support and good adaptability. At HALFAR® , we design and manufacture individual belts and belt solutions for a wide range of conceivable applications in the technical bags team.

From shoulder strap to transport strap: areas of use
When it comes to carrying and transporting, straps are the ideal textile solution and can be found in many areas. Here are some typical applications:
- Carrying straps as hip straps, pelvic straps, chest straps, shoulder straps or as carrying harnesses and carrying systems for comfortable lifting, e.g. as a rehabilitation strap for patients
- Carrying straps, in many widths and all lengths, adjustable in length, with different snap hooks or fastening parts, with and without shoulder padding or anti-slip device
- Padded hip and pelvic belts for equipment and tools of all kinds, also with integrated pockets and special fasteners
- Shoulder straps, padded harnesses and carrying systems for equipment and tools

Why we make straps individually customised
At HALFAR® you will not receive standardised straps from stock, but only individual, customised special productions as one-offs. Numerous references for commercial customers from various industries prove our competence in this area. Straps must always be perfectly matched to their intended use. Before development, it is particularly important for us to know your requirements and your application exactly. In this way, certain processing techniques and bar-tacking or bar-tacking seams can be used to take into account the right parameters in order to develop the appropriate strap. Important questions we ask before designing and manufacturing your belt:
- For what purpose and for which place of use is the strap system planned?
- What loads does it have to hold?
- What loads is the strap itself exposed to, for example through friction, weathering, etc.?
- How should the logo be applied? And how should the buckles and connections be dimensioned?
We produce prototypes and small series at our company headquarters in Bielefeld. Larger runs are produced in other European countries and Asia.
REACH, LFGB, RoHS, VDA standards and CALIFORNIA P65 as well as MDR (for products that flow into medical technology), are just a few examples of standards and regulations that we can take into account during production. We draw on decades of experience in many different industries and are happy to provide consulting and educational services in this regard. Please contact us!
At HALFAR®, we value absolute reliability and the best quality. This includes strict quality management according to DIN ISO 9001:2015.
At our production sites, we also ensure the quality of our bags through regular checks and audits, defined release processes and our own quality inspectors.
A sustainable corporate policy is just as important to us as respecting human rights, maintaining occupational health and safety, and implementing social standards. HALFAR® is committed to this, among other things, as a DIN 14001:2015-certified and climate-neutral company, as well as a member of the amfori BSCI. Learn more about sustainability and social responsibility at HALFAR®.
When choosing the right material for a strap or strap system, not only aesthetic but also functional aspects and, depending on the intended use, standards or similar must be taken into account. For example, in medical technology we use materials that comply with MDR/biocompatibility.
In addition to common materials such as polyester, truck tarpaulin and polyamide, special fibers such as Cordura® or recycled polyester also come into question. Read more about this in the HALFAR® blog.
