About this product
The BRUsystem reaches its full potential with the BRUbelt®, the innovative flat belt from BRUGG Lifting
Together they are unbeatable. The BRUsystem and the BRUbelt® form a perfectly balanced system that is compact, efficient, and quiet.
They deliver higher performance, lower maintenance, and complete design freedom within the elevator shaft.
Two innovations, one philosophy
The BRUsystem represents modular elevator technology that combines performance, safety, and comfort. For this system to work at its best, it needs a traction element that is both flexible and strong. That is exactly why the BRUbelt® was created. It is a flat belt made of high-tensile steel cords and high-tech polymers that works in perfect harmony with the BRUsystem. Together they create a drive system that sets new standards for compactness, energy efficiency, and durability.
Harmony in motion
The BRUsystem with BRUbelt® combines the mechanical precision of BRUGG technology with the smooth operation of modern polymer belts.
The result is a system that runs quietly, powerfully, and reliably with minimal maintenance requirements.
Advantages of the combination
Compact and powerful
The BRUbelt® enables smaller traction sheaves and compact drives. It is ideal for shallow shafts and modernization projects.
Quiet and clean operation
No lubrication or grease is required, ensuring a clean, quiet, and maintenance-free performance.
Maximum service life
The BRUbelt® offers up to three times the lifetime of conventional steel ropes due to reduced bending stress and a wear-resistant coating.
Greater design freedom
The BRUbelt® provides design flexibility within the elevator shaft, enabling compact motor placement in the headroom. This ensures more architectural freedom, efficient use of shaft space, and easier maintenance access.
What makes the BRUbelt® unique
Strength meets lightness
The BRUbelt® combines high-tensile galvanized steel cords with an abrasion-resistant polyurethane (TPU) coating. This design allows the belt to carry heavy loads safely while maintaining minimal elongation and maximum flexibility.
Durable and environmentally friendly
The BRUbelt® operates without lubrication or grease. This reduces maintenance costs and protects the environment. It is free from halogens and silicones, UV-resistant, and resistant to weather, moisture, and abrasion.
Quiet and comfortable
The vibration-damping outer layer ensures smooth and silent operation, providing a noticeable comfort advantage for passengers.
System advantages at a glance
Depending on project requirements, BRUGG Lifting offers two technically coordinated variants of the BRUsystem: with the BRUbelt® flat belt or with the CTP® rope. Both traction elements have been developed specifically for use in the BRUsystem and are known for their high performance, long service life, and easy maintenance.
Space requirements
Compact design that optimizes shaft usage and headroom space. Suitable for both new installations and modernization projects, providing greater flexibility where space is limited.
Maintenance
Significantly reduced maintenance compared to conventional rope systems – no lubrication, no re-tensioning, and longer service intervals.
Service life
Three times longer than conventional ropes
Ride comfort
Low noise, low vibration, smooth operation
Energy efficiency
Light and efficient drive with reduced friction losses
Design freedom
Flexible motor positioning within the headroom, providing greater architectural freedom and efficient use of shaft space.
Sustainability
Grease-free, halogen-free, low maintenance and resource-efficient

“The belt runs quietly, requires no maintenance, and performs reliably. It is exactly what we were looking for in the BRUsystem.”
— Modernization Specialist, Switzerland
Perfectly integrated from the start
The BRUbelt® is already certified, while the BRUsystem has been developed and tested together with the BRUbelt® and its certification process has been initiated with a well-recognized certifying body in the US.
Both components are factory matched, which simplifies system integration and accelerates certification processes.
One system. One responsibility. One brand.
With BRUGG Lifting as your partner, you receive a solution engineered down to the smallest detail, from the initial idea to final implementation.
The BRUbelt® in practice
Thanks to its flexibility and high tensile strength, the BRUbelt® is the ideal solution for
modernization projects with limited space and short installation times
new installations requiring maximum energy efficiency
special designs that demand compact drives
Whether in high-rise buildings, freight elevators, or industrial facilities, the BRUbelt® proves that strength and lightness can go hand in hand.
Future-proof and adaptable
The BRUbelt® is more than a product; it is a flexible technology platform. In addition to standard sizes, BRUGG Lifting offers customized designs, hybrid variants with copper or glass fiber cords, and tailor-made end terminations, all without reducing breaking strength. This makes it the ideal solution for customized BRUsystem projects around the world.
“With BRUbelt®, we were able to design drives that are significantly more compact without compromising load capacity or safety.”
