Manila Rope

Natural Manila Rope

Made from natural fiber for a softer touch, manila rope is easy to handle and is generally cost-effective. From updating your landscaping to organizing a day of outdoor game with your family, this rope is a reliable choice for recreational activities.

What is Manila Rope?

Manufactured from the Philippine's native abaca tree, manila rope offers durability and strength. It also has a superior ability for holding knots.

It's biodegradable, making it environmentally-friendly, and offers moderate UV- and abrasion-resistance.

However, because it does absorb water, it should be completely dry before storing, or it can rot or develop mildew. Manila is often described as heavy or thick: it will shrink approximately 10-15% when it becomes wet.

Common Applications

Manila rope is commonly used for a variety of general-purpose applications:

• Landscaping
• Rope ladders or railings
• Obstacle courses
• Tug-of-war
