Sisal Natural Rope

A natural fibre rope that offers excellent resistance to all weather conditions, making it great for use outdoors. Often used in gardens for borders or decking, in children's play areas and in marine environments, the rope has a rough feel that provides superb grip. Sisal is also hugely popular with cats, (often used as cat scratches) as the fibres are short and scratchy, providing a lot of friction.

The natural rope is made from the yarns of the Agave Sisalana plant (native to Mexico and Central America), hence the name, Sisal.
