Tim & Our Story

The Birth of the Rope Rescuers: A Mission for Sustainability

It all started with a climbing rope - we called it Tim. It had already experienced so much and had so many memories attached to it and without it so many experiences and views would have remained unattainable. But at some point its time as a safety rope was over. A faithful companion that was now to be disposed of - that didn't feel right.

Why give up on a material that still has so much potential? This is exactly where our vision was born: to give ropes and other climbing equipment a second chance and at the same time do something for the environment.

A new cycle is created
Disused climbing ropes, harnesses and carabiners do not have to be waste, but resources with potential. We use them to create unique products - from chalk bags to belts and accessories. What once climbed heights becomes a long-lasting companion in everyday life.

A movement is growing
What started with a few ropes quickly grew. Climbing gyms, private individuals and our partners joined in and the rope rescue movement was born. Together we collect used equipment - from climbing harnesses to paragliders - and bring it back into circulation.

NEWSEED today
NEWSEED stands for circularity and reuse. Our goal is to create sustainable products that connect climbing and the environment. Each product tells a story - from the heights and challenges the material has experienced to its new life in your hands.

Join in – become a rope rescuer!
By donating rope or buying our products, you are actively contributing to saving old materials and creating something new. Together we are setting an example for sustainability and giving used resources a future.
