Classic Boat Supplies is the Australian distributor for world-famous Langman Ropes, a Dutch company able to trace their roots back to 1638. Toufabriek Langman ropes feature around the world on modern pleasure craft, container ships, traditional tall ships, theatres, zoos, climbing centres, etc.
Langmans produce a wide range of high-tech ropes out of a range of fibres from natural fibre ropes such as hemp and cotton, through to polyester, polypropylene, Dyneema®, High Modulus Polyamide (HMPA) and many more.
Many of Langman's ropes have an antique look. They are perfect for adding the finishing touch to traditional sailing boats with all the benefits of modern materials and manufacturing techniques. Classic-look Langman ropes have been used on many of the world's significant tall ships. Who's using Langman ropes?
The classic range of ropes includes several polyester ropes which are either braided or twisted rope. These can be further categorised as "filament" polyester ropes (with a smooth appearance and very good UV properties) and "spun" polyester (with a soft, furry feel).
Classic Boat Supplies keeps stocks of many Langman ropes and can order anything from their full catalogue as required. See the Langman Ropes website for more details on their products.
