Hemp Cord from La Cordeline, 10m long and 6mm diameter

This La Cordeline natural hemp cord is made from a 100% biodegradable plant fibre, known for its lightness and extreme resistance to breakage, holding 355Kg/m². Essential and versatile, it allows for secure fastening, at home or for DIY projects. In the garden, it is ideal for staking young trees, training, aligning, and even supporting the heaviest plants. This rope is available in a 10-metre length of 6 mm diameter per unit.

Hemp is the common name for several plants in the cannabaceae family, including textile hemp, also known as industrial hemp or agricultural hemp, an annual plant selected for the size of its stem and its low content of psychotropic substances. It is also the name given to the plant fibre found in the peripheral part of the stems. Used for centuries, especially for making ropes, natural hemp fibre has a natural odour that diminishes over time, a very light grey-brown colour, and a soft and pleasant touch. It is used for interior decoration, and outdoors, in various fields such as marine, equestrian, or gymnastics. Hemp rope, sensitive to weather conditions, naturally degrades over time when used outdoors, leaving no residue in the environment: it is compostable and environmentally friendly. It should also be noted that its length can vary depending on the humidity of the air, contracting in humid weather and elongating in dry weather. Highly resistant to heat, breakage, and abrasion, hemp rope is also fire-resistant.

In the garden, hemp rope will securely tie and fasten young trees to their stakes, or support fruit-laden branches, for example. It can also be used to align shrubs, small fruits, or vegetable plants with a string. It can be cut with a good pair of scissors, a sharp knife, or a cutter.
