The Eco Cup is the first high performance rope within the PremiumRopes Eco Ropes range. The aim was to develop a good rope for performance sailing and combine this with sustainability goals. This unique rope provides optimal performance due to its strength, UV resistance, low stretch and abrasion resistant cover.
The Eco Cup has a grade 12 Stirotex core, ensuring a high breaking strength and low stretch. The cover is made of 100% recycled plastic: rPet. The rope is comfortable in the hand and is very durable. This makes the Eco Cup very suitable for halyards, sheets and trim lines on any type of boat. In addition, the rope is easy to splice and can be tapered to save weight for racing.
rPet made from old plastic bottles
rPET is created by recycling plastics that were previously used as packaging materials. These include plastic bottles. Once collected, it is sorted and cleaned, and then transformed into rPET. The major benefit of rPet is the decrease of plastic waste that floats around in our oceans. rPet ropes contribute to the efforts of cleaning up the oceans and reduce the amount of plastic waste.
