Nordform vs. Competitors: What Makes Our Belt Better?

Ratchet belts have been around for many years. The concept was originally invented in China back in the 90s, and since then, many players have entered the market.

We’re aware that we’re not the cheapest option available, but there’s a good reason for that. We want to explain what makes us unique.

Quality materials

Leather

All of our leather straps are handcrafted from 100% full-grain leather. This type of leather is known for its robust quality and natural texture, giving each piece a unique appearance. Our leather is Gold-rated by the Leather Working Group, ensuring high quality, fair working conditions, and sustainable production. Additionally, all of our leather is a byproduct of the food industry.

In contrast to other types of leather, which may range from split leather to materials made from various synthetic components, our straps are made exclusively from full-grain leather, providing exceptional durability and longevity. This ensures the belt can withstand daily use for many years without losing its strength or aesthetics.

Buckles

Most belt buckles tend to fade and scratch over time because they use the cheapest coating method on the metal, making the belt look worn and old. Nordform belts come with buckles that are far more scratch-resistant and designed to last. They retain their appearance and functionality even after long-term use, thanks to the PVD coating.

Our own production and design

At Nordform, you will find:

  • More than 25 different straps
  • More than 15 different buckles

Unlike many other ratchet belt retailers that dropship from mass producers in China, we take a different approach. Our straps are made at our own production facility in Turkey, with designs that are entirely our own.

We continually upgrade our straps and buckles based on your feedback, ensuring that we consistently deliver the highest quality.

Nordform vs. Competitors

Good Working Conditions

Our leather belts are produced at our own facility in Turkey, certified by multiple ISO standards. This ensures that our production not only meets high-quality standards but also upholds good working conditions for employees. We have full control over our supply chain and can guarantee that the people making our products work in safe and fair environments.

Many other brands on the market opt for a simpler and cheaper solution by dropshipping from mass producers. These products often come from large factories where there’s no focus on either working conditions or material quality. As a consumer, this means you rarely know how and under what conditions the belt was made.

For us, it’s important to know exactly how and where our products are made so that we can deliver quality with a clear conscience.
