The Pro Dry finish exceeds current UIAA standards, ensuring that the Swift absorbs no more than 2% of it’s own weight in water, making it well suited to use in inclement conditions. In addition it boasts a Thermo Shield finish to impart supple handling characteristics, increased abrasion resistance and durability, and is fully bluesign® compliant – minimising water, chemical and energy usage during production. A feat that no other rope manufacturer is able to match!
