Quality - workmanship - service
We source our material from neighboring European countries and are therefore of high quality, tested and robust.
Be careful with products that are too cheap
Many competitors offer similar products. However, these are often of inferior quality. Visually, the products give an excellent and similar impression , but this impression usually diminishes when the product is used. After a few weeks of continuous use at the latest, the first problems become noticeable. Seams come loose, the supposed “biothane” cuts into your hands or tends to slip out of your hand, becomes brittle, brittle and loses its color.
Rope “China vs. EU”
Ropes are often manufactured with a visually appealing rope sheath - this is similar to that of our "premium ropes" - but crucial fabric density (inner core material) is saved . These ropes come from the Far East, are put together differently and are of low quality.
- Inferior rope inner core affects the robustness & durability
- Breaking load too low
- Quick and easy deformation of the rope (flattening)
- Fraying too quickly
Be careful with “Biothane” offers
Above all, the market is flooded with bad Biothane fake products from the Far East. Biothane® is a patented high-tech polyester fabric and is manufactured by BioPlastics Company.
BioThane® is now a trendy product and very popular with dog owners. There are a large number of offers that seem tempting and cheap. The products look like Biothane, but there is no Biothane in them. "Anyone can look beautiful..."
The disadvantages of most imitations
- Color fades quickly
- Extremely slippery when wet
- Feels more like rubber
- Low breaking load, quickly bitten through
- Only lasts a short time
- Brittle, brittle after a short time
Our materials
We use original BioThane® and a fairly equivalent European product "PVC webbing" . The materials differ only very slightly in the composition of their inner workings . Webbing has proven to be the most popular among dog owners after Biothane®. Some customers prefer PVC webbing over Biothane® due to its slightly higher slip resistance. Others prefer the slightly softer Biothane®. We find both to be of high quality and use them in the appropriate place.
Proven Quality
We adequately test the material properties using our own quality assurance against robustness, UV radiation, moisture, cold and heat fluctuations. Our suppliers carry out the breaking load tests .
Look & feel
And if we're honest... It's just a good feeling when you can shop for your dog's wardrobe in just as many colors as your own :)
