FAQ:
Q: Is polypropylene rope suitable for long-term outdoor sun exposure? A: Standard polypropylene offers moderate UV resistance. For continuous outdoor use we recommend our UV-stabilized grade, which adds inhibitors during extrusion and extends outdoor service life significantly; please advise your application when requesting samples.
Q: Can you do OEM & ODM? A: Yes, we support OEM and ODM services, including custom diameters, lengths, colors, braiding patterns, packaging, and private-label branding for wholesale and distributor buyers. Our engineering team can develop samples based on your drawings or physical samples, and we provide test reports before bulk production.
