Marlow Ropes launches Blue Ocean Doublebraid

Blue Ocean Doublebraid is Marlow Ropes’ latest addition to its eco-conscious range, manufactured from sustainable materials. The heat-set, braid-on-braid Doublebraid is made from 100% recycled waste plastic bottles and is said to provide industry-leading strength and stretch performance.

Since the launch of the Blue Ocean Dockline in 2018, over half of Marlow’s yachting range is now manufactured using sustainable materials. The addition of this new product, the company says, demonstrates its ongoing commitment to sustainable manufacturing.

“It is important to us at Marlow that we take responsibility to become more sustainable and provide our customers with more rope options. We have worked hard over the last couple of years to eliminate plastics from our ranges, lower our carbon footprint and introduce sustainable materials. With half of our range now made using these sustainable materials we are getting closer to achieving our target of using 100% reliance on recycled materials by 2030,” says leisure marine director, Paul Honess.
