Unlike nylon webbing,polyester webbing is resistant to more chemicals and doesn't stretch when wet or damp therefore, reducing the higher risk of accidents. Polyester webbing is light and abrasion resistant making it very suitable for outdoor environments. Applications for use of polyester webbing can vary such as seat belts, tie downs, barrier straps, soft fire ladder, electrician's climbing belt, harness and so on. When properly stitched, any fitting or hardware can be affixed to the webbing extending the functionality.
