High strength copolymer and HSCP+

HSCP
HSCP ropes are manufactured from extruded high tenacity copolymer monofilament fibre (melt blend of polypropylene and polyethylene + additives). This process ensures that the ropes are lightweight and fl oat. Due to an optimised production these ropes are up to 40% stronger than standard polypropylene ropes. Like 100% polypropylene ropes they absorb very little water and do not shrink. They remain flexible when wet and during use.

HSCP+
Continuous improvement in production as well in extrusion and manufacturing of HSCP yarn and rope results in a new range of ropes. HSCP + ropes offer superior features in comparison to standard HSCP ropes.
