FAQ

A Few Things You May Want to Know

Are you a brand?

No. PALOMA is primarily an OEM and ODM manufacturer of fall-protection products.

We provide private-label and customised production for height-safety brands and do not sell or distribute products under the PALOMA name.

Are you a factory?

Yes. PALOMA is a manufacturer producing for fall-protection brands worldwide.

Our in-house production covers harnesses, lanyards, lifelines and related metal components, supported by our own product development, testing and quality-control capabilities.

What industries do you serve?

Our foundation is industrial fall protection. Today, we also support products for firefighting and rescue, climbing, arborist work and other professional activities at height.

Do you provide OEM and ODM services?

Yes. We can work from an existing specification, physical sample, technical concept or initial design brief.

Our involvement can range from straightforward contract manufacturing to complete product development.

Can you supply raw materials or components?

Yes. We can supply the materials and components used in our finished products, including webbing, padding, labels, sewn assemblies and metal hardware.

We can also develop and manufacture components based on a customer’s own design.

Do you have CE certification?

Yes. PALOMA holds EU Module D production-quality certification covering most major height-safety product standards. We also operate an in-house laboratory equipped to test products against these standards.

This enables us to support certified production and help brands apply for their own CE certificates.

Can PALOMA support certificate extensions or secondary certification?

Yes. We can support certificate-extension projects based on more than 60 primary CE-certified models.

Our team can assist with model selection, samples, testing coordination, technical documentation and communication throughout the certification process. We also maintain an extensive portfolio of ANSI-certified models available for further development.

Which standards and markets can you support?

We regularly develop and manufacture products for CE, ANSI, CSA, AS/NZS, UKCA and other market requirements.

The applicable standard, certification route and testing plan are reviewed at the beginning of each project.

How do you control quality?

PALOMA operates under ISO 9001 quality management and EU Module D production-quality assurance.

Our system includes incoming-material inspection, process controls, batch traceability, finished-product inspection and an in-house laboratory equipped with more than 60 testing devices.

Does PALOMA manufacture its own metal hardware?

Yes. Our self-developed buckles, rings, hooks and other metal components entered mass production in 2021.

Producing both textile products and hardware gives us greater control over compatibility, performance, quality and supply continuity.

What is your minimum order quantity?

For harnesses, the MOQ can start from 300 pieces per model.

The final quantity depends on the product structure, materials, colours, hardware, certification requirements and level of customisation.

How can I distribute PALOMA products in my country?

PALOMA does not appoint distributors or market products under its own name.

We manufacture exclusively for height-safety brands through OEM, ODM, private-label and customised production.

How does a new project begin?

Usually with a conversation.

Tell us the intended market, applicable standard, product concept and expected volume. Our team can then recommend the most practical route—from an existing certified platform to a fully customised development.
