Birdlime 1R 9.8mm, from the brand Edelrid, is the first synthetic climbing rope made from renewable bio-based raw materials, making this rope responsible climbing equipment.
The rope is composed of more than 40% of a material based on castor oil, a raw material produced from renewable components.
By using this renewable resource, we reduce (1R) the consumption of fossil raw materials and thus demonstrate that the use of polyamide based on renewable raw materials is also possible in the manufacture of personal protective equipment. With its 9.8 mm diameter and its Thermo Shield treatment, the BIRDLIME R1 is a robust and versatile rope. A perfect alternative for equipping yourself responsibly.
