FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Introducing the Carbon FT-One Tower™ by FallTech®: A next generation harness for tower climbing featuring an industry first carbon fiber bosun seat.

(August 8, 2024 – Compton, CA) FallTech, leading maker of premium fall protection, will bring unparalleled innovation in fall protection for tower industry with the release of its new safety harness, the Carbon FT-One Tower. The new harness is the latest in the brand’s collection of premium FT series harnesses which offer premium construction and advanced, lightweight materials to enhance the comfort and performance of workers at height. Build from the base of the company’s best-selling, premium harness, the FT-One, the new tower climbing harness from FallTech boasts unique and innovate features setting it apart from tower harnesses currently on the market.

Carbon fiber, renowned for its unparalleled strength and lightweight properties, drives the revolutionary design of the Carbon FT-One Tower Harness. The only manufacturer to incorporate this superior material into the seat construction, FallTech sets a new industry standard. This deliberate choice reduces the harness's overall weight, amplifies its durability, and boosts its flexibility, guaranteeing comfort in the most extreme vertical environments.
 
Performance improves when wearers feel comfortable in their safety gear, especially during extended wear scenarios. The Carbon FT-One Tower features a groundbreaking seat webbing system, providing unmatched breathability and support. By pairing this system with a carbon fiber seat chassis, the Carbon FT-One Tower shapes to its wearers form and eliminates discomfort and distractions.

The Carbon FT-One Tower boasts MDS (magnetic deployment system) powered by a powerful, self-finding neodymium magnet. This system enables seamless seat deployment and stowage in seconds. It streamlines the harness adjustment process and ease of use compared to traditional mechanisms. By incorporating magnetism into the design, FallTech has prioritized usability and efficiency, allowing climbers to concentrate on their work, not their gear.
 
The Carbon FT-One Tower dominates in weight capacity, supporting up to 420 pounds. This exceptional strength and resilience guarantee that the harness caters to a broad spectrum of climbers. By setting a new benchmark, the harness makes safety and support universally accessible, solidifying the principle that every climber deserves equal opportunities, regardless of equipment constraints.

Tower climbers need gear that adapts and endures without compromising mobility or comfort. The Carbon FT-One Tower delivers this balance through meticulous design and strategic use of lightweight, forged aluminum hardware. The harness's ergonomic efficiency keeps contact with a climber’s hips to a minimum, eliminating hot spots and maximizing mobility while reducing distractions. This design philosophy empowers climbers to conquer challenging environments with ease, backed by a harness that moves in sync with them.

The Carbon FT-One Tower revolutionizes fall protection for the tower climbing industry with its game-changing approach to safety and comfort. FallTech has harnessed the power of carbon fiber and intuitive features like the magnetic deployment system to create a new benchmark for climbing equipment. With the Carbon FT-One Tower Harness, individuals will perform at a higher level and the entire industry will benefit from a safer, more comfortable work environment.
