Company
We started out as a small printing and embroidery company for textile labels and are now the European market leader for high-tech textile products such as woven festival wristbands and offer innovative solutions such as RFID wristbands for applications such as cashless payment and access control at events, stadiums and venues as well as patented tamper-proof fasteners for festival wristbands.
With decades of experience and a clear focus on quality, service and sustainability, we supply well-known international customers from the event industry, the live music industry, the cashless payment system provider sector, the sports event industry, the clothing industry and the advertising industry. They value us as a reliable, long-term partner.
Our products include fabric labels and various event products (including festival wristbands, RFID wristbands, RFID cards, VIP passes, lanyards and banners).
As an Austrian company steeped in tradition, we continue to rely on personal advice from our experts and customized solutions – for customers of all sizes, from the UEFA EURO European Football Championships and major music festivals to regional events such as fire department festivals, high school graduation/graduation balls or projects by young fashion designers.
Innovation
Innovation is at the heart of our work. Our product developments revolutionized access control in Europe and set the standard for the event industry: textile control wristbands, UV security weaving, self-closing locks and RFID implementation came from our company.
Our company is constantly researching new ideas for festivals, event organizers and promoters; ideas that save time at entrances, improve customer satisfaction and maximize security.
In order to provide legal protection for Heliotextil’s innovations, we hold numerous property rights such as patents and utility models in many countries.
Over 200 different colors are available for a colorful design of your control band. The use of bold background colors makes it possible to clearly distinguish between access rights or age verification. For example, a yellow ribbon color could indicate access permission for one day (Saturday) and a green ribbon color could indicate access permission for two days (Saturday and Sunday) or VIP area.
National prize
On October 30, 2017, the Austrian Federal Minister of Science, Research and Economy, Dr. Harald Mahrer, awarded Harald Platzer GmbH the national coat of arms.
The Austrian coat of arms is only awarded to companies that have rendered outstanding services to the Austrian economy and occupy a leading and widely recognized position in their industry.
The national coat of arms is a recognition, appreciation and confirmation of our corporate philosophy of combining quality and innovation for the greatest possible benefit for our customers.
However, the national award is also an incentive never to rest on our laurels, but to continue to deliver outstanding performance.
