Ropecoat
We have even gone a step further than competitors and collaborated with a specialist UV coating company to develop a product we call 'Ropecoat'. This is a water-based, non-toxic paint, used to protect cordage from sun damage and increase its longevity, through stiffening and stabilising the braids. It is used by standard cruiser and racing yachts, as well as America's Cup Syndicates and other ocean racing yachts.
