<h1>
	BioThane<sup>&reg;</sup> performs better than vinyl because BioThane<sup>&reg;</sup> is coated webbing, which makes it stronger and more abrasion resistant, flexible and durable than vinyl.</h1>
<p>
	Vinyl does not have webbing inside, so it experiences wear and tear more easily and can have weak spots. BioThane<sup>&reg;</sup> provides the peace of mind that your product will outperform and outlast products using vinyl straps.</p>
