At SafetyLiftinGear.com, we like to think we know a thing or two about lifting gear safety. If we didn’t, we may need to consider a company name change!
As such, it’s only fair that we pass some of that knowledge on to you and today we’re doing just that on the subject of lifting slings.
So, gather round the SLG learning tree as we shine some light on the rainbow-coloured world of colour-coded lifting slings.

We sell a variety of lifting slings here at SafetyLiftinGear, but our polyester webbing slings are, without a doubt, our most popular range. Today, we're going to take an in-depth look at why that is.
Polyester is the most common choice of material for lifting slings, and with good reason: it's flexible, it's lightweight, and yet it's capable of bearing exceptionally heavy loads without any difficulty whatsoever. It's also very shock-absorbent, which is good news if you don't want your goods to get damaged while they're being lifted and transported!
Our webbing slings are very cost-effective, starting from just £1.85 each (and that's including VAT!) The more heavy-duty slings are slightly dearer, of course, but no matter what kind of load you're lifting, you're guaranteed to get great value for money with our polyester slings.
Another reason for the popularity of our webbing slings is the fact that we really do have one for any task. Maximum weight capacity ranges from 1 tonne to 20 tonnes; better still, we also sell sling hooks, which are colour-coded to help you get the right hook for your webbing sling!
For example, both this sling and the matching hook are capable of lifting up to 1 tonne.
