Today is World Environment Day.

At Gleistein, sustainability is not just about reducing impact.
It’s also about rethinking materials.



That’s why we developed "Rope made from a bottle" – an initiative that gives recycled PET bottles a second life in high-performance rope applications.

For example our Mooring line ReBob.

Made from recycled PET bottles, ReBob combines reliable performance with a more responsible use of resources. What was once waste becomes part of a durable product designed for demanding marine and industrial applications.

♻️ Recycled PET bottles

⚓ Proven Gleistein quality

🌍 Reduced use of virgin raw materials



For us, innovation is not only about what ropes can do.
It’s also about how they are made.

Because every step towards a circular economy matters.

Sustainability driven by conviction

Sustainability is deeply embedded in our values. That is why we are proud that Gleistein has been awarded the EcoVadis “Committed” badge. The assessment confirms that our approach is seen as good and responsible.

EcoVadis evaluates key areas such as environment, labor & human rights, ethics and sustainable sourcing.
For us, this recognition is both validation and motivation. Sustainability is not a finish line – it is a journey. And we are committed to continuously improving, step by step.

Wind, waves and pure passion

Nordseewoche is more than a regatta.

It’s early mornings at sea, salt in the air, focused crews and the shared excitement of offshore racing.

Moments of full concentration. Moments of performance.

We’re proud to be part of this special event again this year and to support a community that lives for sailing as much as we do.

Thank you! See you on water.

Nordseewoche: Saltwater. Competition. Offshore passion. ⚓🌊
We are ready!

Nordseewoche 2026 is officially underway — and once again, the sailing community has gathered for one of Germany’s most legendary offshore regattas in Helgoland.

We’re proud to be part of it again this year as an official partner.

And of course, our Gleistein rope display is on site as well: featuring a selection of our yacht and performance ropes to explore and experience.

Whether you’re a regatta sailor, cruising enthusiast or simply passionate about sailing:

Stop by, connect with the team and discover our solutions for modern yacht rope applications.

Because for us, Nordseewoche is more than a regatta.
It’s about passion, community and the shared love of sailing.

We’re looking forward to exciting races, great conversations and many familiar faces throughout the weekend.

High performance has no limits. ⚓

When people talk about inclusion, Heiko Kröger lives it.

As one of the world’s most successful Paralympic sailors, Heiko has shown for decades that true performance is not defined by limitations – but by passion, precision and de-termination.

At the highest level of sailing, every detail matters.
Every movement. Every adjustment. Every line on board.

That’s why high-performance sailors like Heiko trust Gleistein ropes.

In this photo, our colleague Heide joins Heiko while presenting Gleistein solutions on board – sharing knowledge, experience and a common passion for sailing.

For us, this partnership stands for more than technology and performance.

It stands for:
⚓ inclusion
⚓ equal opportunities
⚓ respect
⚓ and the belief that excellence belongs to everyone.

We are proud to support sailors like Heiko Kröger, who inspire far beyond the sport itself.

Thank you, Heiko, for your trust and for showing what is possible when talent, determina-tion and passion come together.
