Rope Production

Every Mammut rope is manufactured in Switzerland. Mammut uses high quality Polyamide 6 (Nylon) filament yarns.

Several yarns are spun together to make a twine. Three twines are then combined to form a strand. A number of these strands form the core of the rope.

In the next stage the twines are coated and thermally shrunk.

The sheath twines are braided around the core strands on the braiding machine.

Every single meter of rope is checked electronically for any inconsistency. In Mammut’s test lab and drop tower every single production batch is tested for all relevant specifications to maintain consistent performance standards.
