Harness for arborists

Arborists spend most of their working time at significant heights, therefore, Protekt couldn’t forget about equipment that will allow them to maintain proper safety when performing duties. Our range includes various accessories such as tree climbing spikes, tool straps or lifting and lowering devices. Harnesses for arborists are another flagship product that facilitates work at height.

Arborist Safety Harness

 

Arborist safety harnesses are essential for professionals who work at significant heights for extended periods of time. Designed with comfort and safety in mind, these harnesses are crucial for preventing falls by securely connecting the user to an anchor point or structure. An arborist harness is designed to keep the user securely in place, providing stability and allowing freedom of movement while working. The straps and adjustment buckles are customizable, ensuring a perfect fit and maximum comfort throughout the day.

 

Arborist Safety Harness: Comfort and Durability

 

Made from high-quality materials, arborist safety harnesses are designed for comfort, durability and strength. The connecting and adjusting buckles are crafted from galvanized steel, stainless steel, or aluminum to provide long-lasting reliability. The straps and lines are made from abrasion-resistant polyester, ensuring the harness performs well in various weather conditions, including exposure to humidity and other harsh environmental factors. For added comfort, a thin foam layer is incorporated into the thigh and hip belts, enabling arborists to work for hours without discomfort.

 

Harnesses are available in a variety of sizes, from M to XXL, to accommodate different body types and ensure a secure, snug fit. Key features include:

 

  • Tool D-rings and loops for easy access to hand tools
  • Heavy tool loops for carrying larger tools up to 30kg securely
  • Attachment points for shifting positions, offering increased mobility while working at height
  • Ergonomically profiled padding for added comfort during long hours of use

 

Safety for Heights

 

Safety comes before all, and so all of our arborist harnesses comply with international safety standards, including EN 358 (work positioning belt) and EN 813 (sit harness), ensuring they meet the highest levels of protection. For added support and convenience, consider accessorizing with comfort cushions, tool straps, and other tools to further improve performance and safety during long workdays.

 

Versatility 

 

Arborist harnesses are not only useful for tree climbing, but they are also adaptable to a range of tasks performed at height. Pruning branches, conducting tree health inspections, or performing technical rigging operations, a well-designed harness enhances efficiency and reduces physical strain. Protekt harnesses are engineered to support dynamic movement and multiple working positions, such as standing, sitting, or suspended, allowing arborists to carry out their tasks with ease and security.

 

User-Centric Design

 

Modern arborist harnesses are designed in accordance with the feedback of professionals. Protekt takes this insight very seriously by incorporating ergonomic innovations that address the demands of daily tree work. Adjustable bridge systems, quick-release buckles, and replaceable components make our harnesses both user-friendly and cost-effective. The breathable mesh padding and optimized weight distribution minimize fatigue and overheating, which are among the common challenges during long climbs or summer operations.

 

Integration with Safety Systems

 

Each arborist harness in our collection is designed to integrate with other safety equipment, such as safety lanyards, ascenders, descenders, and fall protection kits. The positioning and redundancy of attachment points enable arborists to maintain three points of contact with the tree or structure at all times, ensuring stability and safety. This is an essential rule in tree climbing safety. High-visibility stitching and labels ensure quick inspection and verification of compliance, streamlining pre-use checks and safety protocols.

 

Long-term investment

 

Choosing the right arborist harness is an investment both in safety and productivity. Protekt’s products are rigorously tested to ensure they can serve you for a long time and be relied upon. With proper maintenance and timely inspections, these harnesses can be used for years, making them an essential part of any arborist’s gear.
