As part of our Circular Chain Project, we set out to prove that true innovation happens when you collaborate and dare to step off the beaten path. The result: durable, functional holds created from retired ropes that have already carried countless climbers upward. ๐งโโ๏ธโป๏ธ

90% less environmental impact compared to conventional PE/PU holds โ
Circularity score of 0.9 vs. 0.1 in regular production โ
4x stronger thanks to PA material in comparisson with PE/PU
This breakthrough was only possible thanks to strong partnerships and a shared vision for a more sustainable climbing future. ๐
Weโre proud of this step, but itโs just the beginning. Together, as a climbing community, we can lead the transition to a circular climbing world.
