PolyHemp Rope
Our PolyHemp rope combines the classic look of natural fibres with the durability of modern materials. It is weatherproof, UV-stable, and doesn't shrink or swell when wet – making it ideal for decking, handrails, fencing, swings, and landscaping features.
We supply by the metre or in full bulk coils, with fast UK delivery as standard. This easy-to-handle rope is soft to the touch but built to last, offering a smart, rustic finish for outdoor and garden projects.
This type of rope is called different things. We call it PolyHemp, and it is also known as Synthetic Hemp, Hardy Hemp, or Hempex. What really counts is the quality – and Garden Rope only sources the best quality rope at great prices.

FAQ
How is PolyHemp made?
How is PolyHemp made?
PolyHemp rope is made from polypropylene (plastic).
Typically, the process involves plastic pellets melted into a die to form a thin sheet. This can then be split into finer, hairy fibres for a hemp-like texture.
At this point, colour or stabilisers may be added before they’re twisted into yarns, then strands, then a finished rope.
What’s better, Jute or PolyHemp?
What’s better, Jute or PolyHemp?
Both Jute and PolyHemp offer a number of benefits, and the best option typically depends on how it will be used.
If you’re looking for a rope for indoor projects or an eco-friendly option, Jute Rope is an excellent option. However, especially outdoors or where durability is required, PolyHemp might just be your best bet.

Benefits of PolyHemp Rope

How long will PolyHemp rope last outside?
How long will PolyHemp rope last outside?
With PolyHemp rope, you can expect to enjoy the benefits of your purchase for years to come when used appropriately.
A few things may reduce the lifespan of your PolyHemp rope, such as:
- UV exposure – while PolyHemp rope is much more UV-resistant than natural rope, sunlight can very slowly break down fibres. PolyHemp rope kept in the shade should last much longer.
- Physical wear and tear – Like any rope, PolyHemp can gradually wear where it is repeatedly rubbed against posts, fittings or other surfaces. Checking these contact points occasionally will help you spot signs of abrasion before they become significant.
