Synthetic Hemp is a strong, weatherproof, synthetic rope made to look like a natural hemp rope. This soft handling rope is ideal for outdoor use and particularly suitable for children's play equipment. When used as a decking rope the holes in the posts will need to be bigger than the rope and not the same size.

Hempex rope is manufactured in Europe for Ropes Direct.

Why is 28mm synthetic hemp popular as garden rope?

Synthetic hemp has a number of properties that make it suitable as garden rope.  For example, it is durable and hard-wearing. It demonstrates excellent UV resistance and doesn’t swell or shrink when it gets wet – making it perfect for prolonged outdoor use.

It’s also incredibly soft to touch. It has an attractive natural hemp appearance and, when bought in this 28mm diameter, offers a wide range of potential uses for the home gardener.

How can I use 28mm synthetic hemp in my garden?

It is often used as a rope fence or border – perhaps to surround decking or a lawn – or to create a fun children’s play area with rope swings and ladders. Try to think outside the box and check out our blog – ‘Get your garden summer-ready with garden ropes’– for a range of creative ideas.
