About León de Oro (Tecnología Deportiva S.A.)
Custom Netting for Safety, Sports, and Industry
León de Oro is the trade name of Tecnología Deportiva S.A., founded in 1979 in Callosa de Segura, Alicante, by Antonio Benimeli. The company develops and manufactures netting for safety, sports, industrial, and material-handling applications. It operates internationally, with locations in Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States, the United Arab Emirates, and New Zealand.

Custom Work and Certifications
León de Oro makes custom netting, adjusting rope thickness, mesh size, color, and shape to meet customer needs. It was the first net manufacturer in Spain to receive international product certifications and is an active member of the European Committee for Standardization. Its solutions meet requirements such as ANSI and OSHA standards, and it can provide engineer-stamped drawings for projects that require them.
Materials and Technology
The company makes knotless nets from high-tenacity polypropylene, a 100% recyclable material that is lightweight (specific gravity 0.91, less than water), inert, hypoallergenic, and not digestible by insects. The fibers do not absorb moisture, retain their strength in acidic or alkaline environments, and do not build up static electricity. The nets offer strong UV and abrasion resistance, and their knotless construction makes them easy to install without knots that can shift.
International Reach
León de Oro operates in more than 60 countries and says it plans to continue expanding its global presence. Its locations are in Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States, the United Arab Emirates, and New Zealand.
