SAFE. PROVEN. WITH A LARGE SELECTION.
Lifting slings, round slings and textile slings
from BRUGG Lifting
Our special range for the most diverse requirements for safe lifting of loads-
The right textile lifting gear for all cases
Whatever loads you want to lift, you’re sure to find the right work equipment for your project in our wide product range. Choose from our textile slings if you want to lift particularly slippery or sensitive loads. Ideal, for example, for rollers, shafts, finished parts or painted objects. Natural fiber ropes and man-made fiber ropes are very suitable for pressure-sensitive and relatively light loads, such as pipes, heating or ventilation parts.
Caution
For sharp-edged and hot loads, neither lifting slings nor round slings are suitable, but sling chains or ropes.
How to choose the right textile lifting equipment?
With textile slings from BRUGG Lifting you can lift almost any load on construction sites, in production halls, industry and co.
Our range includes:
- Lifting slings from 1 strand up to 4 strands
- Reversible slings with different hooks
- System construction slings with all-round chafing protection
- Round slings, endless slings and lifting slings
- Accessories such as replacement chains, replacement straps, suspension links, textile couplers and much more
n addition to the common products from these areas, you will also find suitable lifting points and special lifting equipment (also according to customer specifications) in our extensive sling and lifting equipment range.
Load capacity of lifting slings and round slings
All our lifting slings and round slings have a sewn-on load label that informs you about all important data – including the material, the manufacturer, the applicable standard and the date of the next test. Also on the load label you will find information on how to use the lifting slings and round slings. This includes the sling types, the angle of inclination, the working length and the Working Load Limit (WLL).
As a support for our customers, we offer with the BRUGG Lifting App the possibility to quickly and easily calculate the slings and the WLL.
Application instructions for your lifting slings, round slings and textile slings
To ensure that you are on the safe side when slinging loads, we have compiled some application notes for lifting slings and round slings for you.
Slinging of loads
- Does the safety catch of the load hook move properly?
- The safety catch of the hook must lock!
- Report any defect to the crane operator/supervisor
- Is the sling gear undamaged (no cracks, cuts, crushes, noses)?
- Can the load be transported using the selected sling gear?
Can the material be transported in this state using the crane (intact packaging, stable wooden pallet, no loose parts)?
- Where to attach the sling gear at the material to be transported?
- The material to be transported must be transported in balanced position. Take the center of gravity of the load into account!
Sling chains, belts or ropes tightly around the material to be transported, so that the load will not be shifted when lifted.
- Safe hold
- Alternative places, if the load tends to make uncontrolled movements
- Eye contact to the crane operator
- No danger of falling down and being trapped
- Signal to crane operator “slowly lift” by hand
- Supervise the lifting operation from short and safe distance
- If the load floats narrowly above the floor, check whether: the load is suspended balanced and the attachment points remain stable?
- If yes: Signal “Lift” by hand
- If the load tilts over or if attachment points shift: signal “Stop” by hand
- Never correct floating load by hand!
- Leave the swivel range of the crane
- Never stay below the floating load

Efficient and Safe Solutions for Your Lifting Project
BRUGG Lifting’s lifting equipment comprises an extensive range of products specifically developed to lift loads safely and efficiently. Our lifting equipment, from high-quality wire ropes to innovative lifting solutions, is known for its reliability and durability across a wide range of industrial applications.
What Is Lifting Equipment?
Lifting equipment refers to specialized equipment and tools designed to safely and efficiently lift, transport, and secure heavy loads. It plays a crucial role in many work processes and is indispensable in industries such as construction, manufacturing, and transport. From elevator ropes and suspension ropes to more complex equipment such as cranes and lifting platforms, lifting equipment offers a wide range of solutions for handling loads of any size.
Why Is Lifting Equipment Important?
Using lifting equipment is essential for ensuring workplace safety and guaranteeing the smooth running of lifting projects. It minimizes the risk of accidents by moving heavy loads safely and precisely. Rigging equipment plays a central role here, as it forms the direct connection between the load and the hoisting equipment, ensuring stability and safety.
Types of Lifting Devices
Lifting Slings
Lifting slings are ideal for lifting sensitive or irregularly shaped loads, as they do not damage the surface.
Lifting Slings
Lifting slings are flexible slings that can be used to safely lift and transport loads.
Electric Chain Hoist
The electric chain hoist offers a powerful and reliable solution for vertically lifting heavy loads.
Load Lifting Attachments
Load lifting attachments and special devices such as railing ropes and wire ropes are essential for many construction and architectural projects.
How Does Lifting Equipment Work?
Lifting equipment uses mechanics and physical principles to facilitate the lifting and securing of loads. By using levers, pulleys, ropes, and chains, forces can be transmitted and controlled efficiently, significantly easing the process of lifting loads. Depending on the design, this reduces the force required, precisely controls the movement of the load, or changes the direction of the pulling force, for example through pulleys or multi-leg rigging systems. Modern lifting equipment often combines these basic mechanical principles with high-strength materials such as steel or special textile fibers, achieving an optimal balance of dead weight, load capacity, and safety even with heavy loads.
When and Where Should You Use Lifting Equipment?
Lifting equipment is essential whenever loads need to be lifted, moved, or secured, particularly in industries such as construction, manufacturing, and logistics. It is important for load securing, where it helps preserve the integrity of goods during transport. It is used in a wide variety of environments, from construction sites and factories to theaters and large logistics centers. It is crucial for the safe and efficient handling of materials in almost any industrial and commercial setting.
Safety When Working at Height
When using lifting equipment at greater heights, for example on scaffolding, roofs, or facades, additional safety requirements apply. Products such as PFPE (Personal Fall Protection Equipment) are essential to reliably protect both the user and the load being lifted. Our fall protection training ensures that your team is trained in the safe handling of fall protection equipment. The combination of suitable lifting equipment and appropriate fall protection ensures that even demanding lifting work at height can be carried out safely and in compliance with standards.
