„Always be on the safe side by opting for the original.“

Developed by architect and engineer Dr. Anton-Peter Betschart, the technically approved BESISTA® tension and compression rod system with type stress analysis is the oldest and first-patented system of its kind (dating from 1987). The product – which has since evolved into the BESISTA® 540 heavy-duty designer rod system – now boasts a triumphant 25-year international track record. For further details, see MENU point „History“.
BESISTA® is an acronym of Betschart-Sicherheits-Stabsysteme (Betschart safety rod systems). BESISTA® rod systems have now become a pivotal feature of many architectural solutions. They are used worldwide on showpiece and aesthetically demanding projects.
In research and development too, BESISTA® assumed a leadership role from the very start. With the same pioneering spirit and innovative energy, Dr. Betschart has since turned his company, BESISTA International GmbH, into a key player in the manufacture of high-grade tension and compression rod systems.
Alongside innovations such as cross anchors, cross plates, angle anchors or compression rod connections for timber, BESISTA® systems offer a host of special features and advantages. The high-grade products on offer are always at the cutting edge of technology. For further details, see MENU points “System elements” and “Special elements”.
