Gyms, manufacturers and professional partnerships.
Donate your retired or QC-failed rope or host a donation station.
Nope Rope works with entities such as climbing gyms, guiding companies, arborists and rope manufacturers to divert retired ropes from landfill and repurpose them into non-load-bearing training kits that help new climbers build real skills, safely on the ground.
Meet circular economy & EPR expectations
Regulation is moving from “throw away” to resource responsibility.
By donating ropes or facilitating their collection by us, you’re proactively aligning with:
Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)
Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) goals
Scope 3 emission awareness
Textile and polymer waste reduction frameworks
You’re not reacting — you’re leading.
What do you need to provide?
How ever many of these two things as suits you:
Retired or QC-failed ropes over 2m and clean(ish).
A small spot (50x50x140cm) for a collection bin for climbers to donate theirs.
Why partner with us?
Because we turn your retired ropes into training tools, not landfill — zero cost, zero hassle, positive impact.
Circular economy in action — donating to us prevents nylon waste and extends rope life, keeping tons of plastics out of the earth.
ESG & EPR aligned — we provide records of how much rope you’ve saved from landfill, through hosting a donation station or by direct donation, giving you an easy path to proactive sustainability, not reactive compliance.
Great PR — You’ll be visibly doing right by the environment & the climbing community.
Safety-first — all ropes are batch-tracked and clearly marked NOT PPE. When you donate or host a donation station, we assume responsibility for the collected ropes. Liability is fully transferred and taken care of.
Cleaner industry footprint — you’re not only supporting skills & reducing landfill, you’re also helping make accessible, affordable training resources to the community.
