The Company
The manufacturing company was formed in 1973 as a result of the invention
of the flexi retractable leash.
Since then it has specialized 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 its products, which are second to none, it has
become a recognized global player on the World market.
Today, employing more than 200 people, we are proud
to state that our leashes are entirely “Made
in Germany”.
flexi leashes are exclusively manufactuRed in a 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, the company exports 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 the
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 restraint.
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.
While 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.
