The
Fibres
1. Aramid
At FibreMax, we use an aramid called Twaron®, which is a very robust fibre developed exclusively by Teijin Aramid. It has a high modulus, has almost no creep, is thermally stable, and can withstand chemical and high general impacts.

2. HMPE
Our FibreMax cables made with HMPE are as strong as steel-wire, polyester or nylon ropes, but offer a smaller diameter and significantly lighter weight at minimal break loads.
