Modern high-strength synthetic fibers are incredibly strong and durable. With protective, replaceable sleeves on stress and wear points, synthetics can be used in the roughest situations.
For personnel and equipment, synthetic rope is safer. Its soft finish is easy to handle, and lighter weight helps prevent injuries. If it should break, synthetic rope fails thread by thread rather than recoiling uncontrollably.
Synthetics are up to 86% lighter than steel rope of the same diameter. Being easier to transport, inspect, deploy and store, synthetic rope pays you back with labor and equipment savings every time it’s used.
Some 20+ years ago, the engineers at Cortland set out to build a better synthetic rope solution. With decades of use and tens of thousands of applications, Cortland Plasma 12×12—that purple rope—is still leading the industry.
The great majority of our clients require tailor-made solutions. We step up to every challenge with an engineered product that fits their unique needs.
