Marking of half rope for mountaineering, multipitch and ice climbing. Individual strands of rope are used in alternation in the protection system. This system reduces the risk of rope breakage caused by falling stones, and provides maximum safety in alpine conditions and for difficult climbs.

Marking of twin ropes for mountaineering, multipitch and ice climbing. Pairs of the same type of rope are always used, sharing the same protection points. Twin ropes guarantee a high level of safety, especially for multipitch climbing in alpine conditions.

Patented smart buckle used on SINGING ROCK harnesses and other products enables to lock and open very quickly. more >>

Products marked with this symbol meet strict UIAA safety requirements. The UIAA is the International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation. In most cases, UIAA require-ments are sometimes stricter than EN standards.

SINGING ROCK patented technology for rope production. A rope is produced on a 44-carrier machine which provides great handling, low weight and durability. more >>

A standard for water repellent ropes approved by the UIAA Safety Commission. To pass the test at a certified laboratory, the amount of absorbed water must not be greater than 5% of the rope’s weight. more>>

Lightweight, soft, and warm, with a wool-like feel fabrics or yarn. Strong and warm, acrylic fiber is often used for sweaters and tracksuits and as linings for boots and gloves, as well as in furnishing fabrics and carpets. It is manufactured as a filament, then cut into short staple lengths similar to wool hairs, and spun into yarn.

Cloth, yarn, and clothing made out of bamboo fibres. Bamboo fabric is exceptionally soft and light. It is also incredibly hydrophilic, absorbing more water than other conventional fibres such as cotton and polyester.

Soft napped insulating fabric made from a type of polyester called polyethylene terephthalate (PET) or other synthetic fibers. A lightweight, warm, soft and hydrofobic fabric. Regular polar fleece is not wind-proof and does not absorb moisture. It is readily generates static electricity.

High-pressure fiberglass laminate, a kind of composite material. It is created by stacking multiple layers of glass cloth, soaking in epoxy resin, and compressing the resulting material under heat until the epoxy cures. G10 is favoured for its high strength, low moisture absorption, excellent electrical insulating properties and chemical resistance.

Expanded polystyrene is a rigid and tough, closed-cell foam. It is made of pre-expanded polystyrene beads. Due to its technical properties such as low weight, rigidity, and formability, EPS can be used in a wide range of different applications.
