Ropes and Equipment for Your Vertical World

In the event you cannot send your ropes to us for recycling, here are some other GREEN ideas from PMI on how you may be able to use your retired ropes!
  • Fishing and marine uses (mooring boats, repairing nets, etc.)
  • For making rugs, curtains, keychains, picture frames, bracelets, and other types of recycled art
  • Rope Swings
  • Equestrian uses: halters, reins, lariats, lassos, lunge lines, etc.
  • Railings and demarcation lines (ex. to keep people (i.e. adventure tour clients) within a certain area, or from crossing into an unsafe area)
  • Boundary rope (sports)
  • For practicing knots (cut in small pieces and mark well to make sure they’re not used for any life safety application)
  • Jump ropes
