⚡ At a Glance
- • Strength: One of the strongest natural ropes, with a history of use in pulling, fastening and sail rigging
- • Best for: Gardening, plant support, decking, furniture making, handrails, crafts, DIY and decorative projects
- • Not ideal for: Permanent load-bearing applications or prolonged wet exposure without regular inspection
Made from untreated natural jute (hessian) fibres, the cord suits tying, decking and decorative use. Natural fibres may shrink when wet and will degrade over time if left exposed to the elements.
Secure tying and support - Thanks to strong natural hessian fibres
Multiple jute fibres are twisted and braided to create a thick, high-tensile cord historically used for rigging and anchoring. The 22 mm construction adds bulk and grip for knots and ties.
Reliable performance for plant support, bundling and temporary handrails, where tactile grip and knot security matter.
Rustic decorative appeal - With natural brown jute finish
Untreated jute retains a coarse texture and warm brown tone that suits rustic interiors and outdoor décor. No synthetic additives preserve an authentic natural appearance.
Adds atmospheric, traditional style to furniture, planters and craft projects while blending with natural materials.
Ready-to-use ends - With taped finishes to prevent unraveling
Taped ends reduce fraying during handling and cutting, keeping the cord tidy straight from the spool. User feedback confirms taped finishes arrive intact.
Saves time on craft projects and minimises faff when finishing knots or attaching the cord to fixtures.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the rope suitable for outdoor use?
A: Outdoor use is possible, but untreated natural fibres will degrade over time, so regular inspection is required when exposed to the elements.
Q: Will the rope fray easily?
A: Ends arrive taped to prevent unraveling and reduce fraying during handling, though the natural fibre surface can still shed slightly with heavy use.
Q: Can the rope be used for handrails or swings?
A: Use with caution for handrails or swings, and check condition frequently, because natural jute can weaken and shrink when wet.
