GeoStatic NE now with UIAA safety label

Static rope series recommended for use by climbers and mountaineers

Safety and performance are two of the most important attributes to look out for when selecting ropes. Representing the interests of climbers and mountaineers, the International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation UIAA (Union Internationale des Associations d’Alpinisme) tests ropes to ensure stringent standards are met to ensure the safety of their members. Gleistein is pleased to announce that its complete new GeoStatic NE series – with diameters ranging from 9-12mm – is recommended, and all ropes in the range now bear the coveted UIAA safety label.
