Sinclair & Rush Supports Orion Safety Belts with Critical Seatbelt Components
Orion Safety Belts is the UK’s leading manufacturer of safety belts, proudly working with some of the biggest names in the coach building and school transport industries. With over 30 years of experience and officially trading since 2002, Orion has grown from a one-man operation into a group of businesses supplying safety-critical components across multiple sectors.
At Orion, the team designs, manufactures, and assembles bespoke seatbelt systems for an array of applications—including vehicles, wheelchairs, ambulances, fire trucks, and even pet accessories like dog leads and leashes. Each belt is engineered to precise technical specifications to ensure optimal safety and performance—because these products are not just functional, they have the potential to save lives.
Today, the business is managed by Chris (Operations Manager) and Steven (Managing Director), both of whom bring a fresh perspective to the industry, having joined within the last year. Together, they’re driving innovation while maintaining Orion’s strong reputation for quality and reliability.
Sinclair & Rush is proud to supply Orion with several key components, but most notably, we provide a custom Three-Ribbed Sleeve—an integral part of the seatbelt assembly. This small yet vital piece of protection fits over the section where the seatbelt clips in. Because the belt itself is made from fabric, there is an inherent risk of fraying or tearing over time. Our sleeve helps reinforce this connection point, protecting it from wear and extending the lifespan of the belt.
“The seatbelt sleeve may be a small component, but it's absolutely critical to safety. It prevents fraying and helps ensure long-term reliability of the belt system.”
– Elaine, Senior Sales Executive, Sinclair & Rush
All sleeves undergo rigorous safety checks to ensure full compliance with Orion’s strict quality standards and those of their customers. The product must meet not only functional requirements but also stringent safety certifications—because when the stakes are this high, there’s no room for compromise.
“We always receive excellent service from Elaine. She’s personable, reliable, and makes sure we receive our bulk orders on time—especially when fulfilling bespoke client contracts.”
