EDELRID have been making ropes for well over 150 years. They are credited with the invention of “kernmantle” rope in the early 1950s. The quality of their ropes is renown and ongoing development has meant the modern kernmantle rope is lightweight, abrasion resistant and of high strength. EDELRID Accessory Cords are manufactured to the same exacting standards and are known as a hard-wearing accessory cord with low elongation and excellent knotability.
