Our company was formed in 1973 as a result of the invention of the flexi retractable leash.
Since then we have specialised in the development and the production of retractable leashes according to the philosophy that: when you specialize in one field only, then you have to maintain the highest standards of perfection!”
With our products, which are second to none, we have become a recognised global player on the World market. Today, employing more than 250 people, we are proud to state that our leashes are entirely “Made in Germany”. flexi leashes are exclusively manufactured in our modern production plant in Bargteheide, near Hamburg, where an environment has been created that gives employees great pride in their work.
As a market leader, we export over 90% of our products to more than 50 countries around the globe.
The idea
We are often asked how the flexi dog leash was invented, the answer is simple: The inventor and founder of our company who was and is now an owner of Fox Terriers, wanted to give his dogs the freedom to move, even when a leash was needed for control.
So, initially for his private use, he constructed a roll-up device using the starting mechanism of a power saw, encased within a wooden shell. Whilst walking his dogs with this first pRototype of a retractable leash, he caused such a lot of attention from other dog owners that he decided it could be worthwhile to market his leash.
The idea that became known as the flexi leash gave birth to the company, which remains the pioneer in the market of retractable leashes and still has its founder as its driving force.
