Braiding bungees, webbing and cords
Braiding is a historic skill at Eurosandow that has shaped our identity and expertise.
Braiding is a manufacturing technique that involves wrapping a central material (natural latex, synthetic rubber, elastane, etc.), called the “core,” with textile threads through the precise rotation of thread spools.
Over the years, we have perfected this manufacturing technique, adapting it to technological advances and the growing demands of the most technical sectors.
Today, our expertise and capacity for innovation enable us to meet the specific needs of a wide range of industries.
Depending on the specifications and the final application of the product, braiding can be used for bungee cords, laces, cables, and straps.
Braiding custom-made products
There are 150 braiding machines in our factory. We are able to respond quickly to customers’ requests ; our factory operates, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This organisation enables us to guarantee efficient production and respond to customer requests as quickly as possible.
Our machines are designed to perform complex braiding with different widths and thicknesses, to meet the diverse needs of the most demanding industries.
We can combine various types of covering materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, cotton, polyamide, Kevlar, aramid, fibreglass, copper, carbon fibre, linen, and hemp. This flexibility allows us to create cables with very specific characteristics.
The braided products made in our factories can therefore be used for a wide range of applications.
Applications
Automotive
In the automotive industry, this process enables us to manufacture, in our factories (France and Romania), overmoulded cords, either elastic or rigid, which are used to lift the vehicle's parcel shelf. We also design cords that assist the movement of car seats.
In addition to these products, our expertise allows us to design tablet holders positioned on the back of the front seats, elastic cables located on the upper part of nets, as well as tightening cords used in the assembly of car seats to tighten the seat cushion.
Aeronautic
In the aeronautic sector, we use braiding to manufcture tubular fastening straps. These straps are used in cargo holds for securing various packages, as well as in cabins for securing various equipment handled by the crew: service trolleys, emergency medical equipment, etc.. Braiding is also used in aeronautics to make elastic cables that fix and hold the cover to the aircraft seat.
Marine
Eurosandow has developed a range of technical products specially designed to meet the demanding requirements of the maritime sector. Our ropes, bungee cords, halyards and webbings are used to secure equipment on deck or to tension sails. Our webbings, bungee cords, halyards and bungee cords are made from ultra-strong materials such as Kevlar and Dyneema, designed to guarantee optimum strength and performance in all circumstances. This range of marine products is designed to withstand UV, salt water and temperature changes.
