Lifting Nets

Lifting Nets as a Safe and Stable Transportation Option

Lifting nets are square-cut nets that are available from us in sizes of up to 4 m x 4 m. They are high-strength, extremely robust and stable, making them a very good choice for transporting heavy goods. Their design enables materials and goods to be lifted safely and moved from A to B.

These nets are often used on construction sites, in warehouses and in transportation logistics, where they are used to transport objects safely and efficiently. Thanks to their high load capacity and reliability, cargo nets offer a safe solution to ensure the smooth transportation of goods even under demanding conditions.

Load Transportation Nets in Industry and Construction

Cargo lifting nets are indispensable in industry and construction. They are used to transport materials and goods safely, whether using cranes or other lifting equipment. Thanks to their high load-bearing capacity, they can move even heavy loads safely and are a reliable solution for everyday use.

Examples of applications:

• Transporting building materials: Cargo nets are often used to safely lift and transport heavy building materials such as bricks, concrete blocks or steel beams. On construction sites, they enable materials to be transported quickly and efficiently to hard-to-reach places.
• Securing equipment and machines: In industry, cargo nets help to move heavy machinery and equipment safely. They offer a stable and safe way of transporting expensive and sensitive equipment without damaging it.
• Loading and unloading containers: Lifting nets are also used for loading and unloading containers. They ensure that the transported goods remain safe and stable while they are being lifted into or unloaded from the container.
• Storage and securing of goods: In warehouses, cargo transportation nets can also be used to secure and store goods - for example, they enable goods to be stored suspended.

Thanks to this wide range of possible applications, cargo nets help to make the transportation, storage and handling of heavy goods in industry and construction safe and efficient. On construction sites and in industry, their focus on transportation, loading and storage makes them the ideal complement to webbing nets, cover nets, side protection nets, etc., which are primarily used to secure loads and/or people.

Lifting Nets as Helicopter Nets for Air Transportation

Cargo nets are also used as helicopter nets for air transportation. These special nets must meet special requirements to ensure the safe transportation of goods and materials by air. They are often used in relief and rescue operations, for example to supply food in disaster areas or to evacuate people.

Examples of the use of helicopter nets:

• Air rescue: In the event of emergencies and natural disasters, helicopter nets can be used to transport urgently needed relief supplies such as food, water and medical care to remote or hard-to-reach areas.
• Rescue operations: In rough terrain, such as in mountainous regions or forests, helicopter networks enable the rapid provision of required tools or materials.
• Military operations: During military operations, the lifting nets are used to transport equipment and supplies quickly and safely directly to the area of operation.
• Construction projects in areas that are difficult to access: For the construction of infrastructure such as bridges or towers in remote areas, helicopter networks can be used to bring building materials to the site quickly and efficiently.

Thanks to their versatility and reliability, even under extreme conditions, helicopter nets are an indispensable tool for the safe air transportation of goods and materials and, in special cases, people.

Transportation Nets Made of High Quality Material

The quality and stability of the materials used are crucial for the safety of the lifting nets. All our nets comply with the current DIN standards and are made of braided, dyed-through polypropylene. This plastic is highly stable and tear-resistant. Thanks to the knotless weave, which is just as stable as a knotted connection, the cargo net remains absolutely dimensionally stable - even under heavy use.

The all-round end edge with a nylon edge rope and the two traverse ropes woven through the net further increase stability and safety. There are suspension loops at each corner, which are fitted with chafe protection and thus provide stable attachment points for transportation.

The polypropylene used is weather-resistant and UV-stable, offering high resistance to sunlight, moisture and other environmental influences. This ensures that the nets do not lose their stability even during prolonged outdoor use.

The material of the high-strength cargo nets is 100% non-toxic, and contact with mucous membranes (mouth, eyes) is also completely harmless.

The Right Mesh Size and Payload for Lifting Nets

Choosing the right mesh size and payload is crucial for the safe use of cargo nets and safety nets of all kinds. Depending on which goods are to be transported and how heavy they are, different mesh sizes and material thicknesses may be required.

The mesh size of a cargo transport net determines how well it can hold objects of different sizes. Smaller objects require narrower mesh nets, while larger objects can also be transported safely with wide mesh nets.

The load capacity indicates how much weight a cargo net can safely carry. At Safetynet365, the transport nets are available in different material thicknesses, so that payloads of 1 to 3.5 tons can act on our cargo nets.

This flexibility makes it possible to adapt the networks to the specific requirements of each application.

Fasten Lifting Nets Correctly with Suspension Gear

To ensure safe transportation with a cargo net, a reliable four-strand suspension system is always required. This distinguishes cargo and transport nets from other types of nets such as webbing nets, side protection nets and simple cover nets.

The belt suspension model we offer impresses with its material mix of polyester and steel, which easily meets even the highest requirements. The sturdy eye hooks of the hanger also fit the loops of all our DIN-approved load transport nets.

When using the nets, always ensure that all four loops are properly attached to the lifting device. In addition, with cargo nets, only the loops serve as stable attachment points; attachment to the end edges is not recommended. Also make sure that the load-bearing capacity of the strap suspension is at least equal to the maximum load-bearing capacity of the net.
