Features

• UIAA Dry certified built with Sterling XEROS technology

• Since it's built into the core and sheath, there's no tacky or sticky coating to pick up dirt
• XEROS is PFOA-free and reduces waste, energy use and labor, all without a price premium
• Includes a middle mark
• UIAA 101
• CE EN 892
• 95% of the raw rope fibers at Sterling get made into finished products; remaining waste gets recycled or upcycled into non–life safety products
• Send your used Sterling dynamic rope to the Sterling recycling department so the materials can get a second life; they also accept non-Sterling dynamic ropes
• Rope manufacturing facility runs on 100% renewable energy
• Sterling offsets 100% of their carbon emissions by purchasing carbon offsets from Climate Neutral and Arbor Day Foundation
