Biothane® is a polyester webbing coated in a durable TPU or PVC layer, originally developed for equestrian and outdoor use where strength, reliability, and weather resistance are critical. It combines the structure of traditional webbing with a protective outer coating that makes it more resistant to water, odor, and environmental wear than leather or nylon.
The coated surface is waterproof and non-absorbent, meaning it won’t take on water, dirt, or odors. It stays cleaner, lasts longer, and avoids the smell and breakdown commonly seen in other materials. After exposure to mud, rain, or anything in between, it can be cleaned in seconds with just water.
Biothane® is also highly resistant to abrasion, UV exposure, and temperature changes. It resists cracking, stiffening, and brittleness—even in cold conditions—and maintains its flexibility and strength over time with regular use.
From a performance standpoint, Biothane® offers excellent tensile strength with minimal stretch, providing consistent, reliable control. Its smooth finish helps reduce friction, making it comfortable for both dogs and handlers.
Another advantage is its versatility. Biothane® comes in a wide range of colors, widths, and finishes—from matte to high-gloss—allowing for fully customized gear without sacrificing durability. It also pairs well with a variety of hardware and attachment types, making it ideal for custom builds.
