Transport Bags

Transport bags are crucial for professionals and enthusiasts working at height in various fields. They provide a safe and convenient way to carry and store essential equipment, including Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), for activities like adventure climbing, industrial climbing, arboriculture, and height rescue. Here’s a breakdown of their key features and considerations:

• Durability: Constructed from tough materials like abrasion-resistant fabric, PVC tarpaulin, or ballistic nylon to withstand wear and tear during transport and potential harsh outdoor environments.

• Capacity and Size: Offered in various sizes to accommodate the specific equipment needs of different activities. Consider the volume and weight of the gear you typically carry.

• Compartments and Organization: Internal compartments, pockets, and dividers can help organize equipment for easy access and prevent items from shifting or tangling during transport.

• Carrying Options: Features like padded shoulder straps, duffel-style handles, or backpack straps can improve comfort and ease of carrying.

• Waterproofness: Water-resistant or waterproof materials can protect your equipment from moisture, dust, and dirt during transport and storage.

• Specific Types:

  • Rope bags: Designed specifically for storing climbing ropes, often featuring ventilation to prevent moisture buildup.
  • First-aid kit bags: Dedicated bags for organizing and transporting first-aid supplies for emergencies at height.

Choosing the right transport bag:

• Activity: Consider the specific equipment you use for your chosen activity (climbing, arboriculture, etc.) and choose a bag with sufficient capacity.
• Durability: The bag’s material should be appropriate for the weight of your equipment and the potential for wear and tear during transport.
• Organization: Compartments and pockets can significantly improve ease of use, especially if you carry a variety of gear.
• Portability: Carrying options should suit your needs – shoulder straps for backpack-style carrying or duffel handles for quick grabbing.
