For over 50 years, Bunzl Safety & Lifting has been a trusted name in the supply and custom manufacture of high-quality lifting slings in Australia. From standard stock to fully customised solutions, our focus has always been on safety, compliance, and performance, providing businesses across industries with the confidence they need to handle heavy loads safely.

Why Choose Synthetic Slings?

Synthetic slings, including flat web slings, polyester/nylon slings and specialty, high performance slings such as twin paths, are suitable for a wide variety of lifting and towing applications. Compared to traditional wire rope or chain slings, synthetic slings offer significant advantages:

  • Low Weight and Easy Handling: Less effort is required to manoeuvre synthetic slings, reducing manual handling strain and improving workplace safety.
  • Non-Damaging to Loads: Soft slings protect delicate, polished, or finished surfaces, preventing damage that can occur with chain or wire rope.
  • Shock Absorption: Synthetic fibres absorb sudden loads and impacts, improving load stability and reducing the risk of accidents.
  • Flexibility and Versatility: Synthetic slings can adapt to a wide range of load shapes and lifting angles, making them ideal for complex or awkward lifts.

These features make synthetic slings a smarter, safer, and more efficient alternative for most lifting operations.

Our Range of Slings

Bunzl Safety & Lifting manufactures and stocks a diverse range of slings, all individually proof tested to Australian Standards and supplied with a Test Certificate, ensuring compliance and peace of mind on every lift. Capacities range from 0.5 tonnes up to 600 tonnes, catering to light, medium, and ultra-heavy lifting applications.

Twin-Path® Slings – Our licensed and patented Twin-Path® slings are made to order for heavy lifts up to 600 tonnes. They offer exceptional abrasion resistance, ergonomic handling, and built-in pass/fail inspection indicators, with repair options available in most cases.
