2/ Why do Vietnamese fishermen trust Cock Rope?

a) Quality

Cock Rope is a robust type of rope with high tensile strength (pulling force) that varies in diameter and composition. Siam Brothers Vietnam can produce ropes with a tensile strength of over 60,000 kgf, tailored to different needs and applications.
The material used for the ropes is chosen based on specific requirements and characteristics for each task. Polypropylene (PP) beads provide high rigidity, sturdiness, and good tensile strength; polyethylene (PE) beads offer flexibility, smoothness, and durability, albeit with slightly lower tensile strength than PP beads; Polyester beads result in a glossy appearance and exceptional robustness. Depending on the diverse properties required, Siam Brothers Vietnam researches and develops different product lines.
The durability of these ropes is high, with a guaranteed product lifespan of three years for all Cock Rope products manufactured by Siam Brothers Vietnam. Customers can trust in the longevity of these products. Notably, these ropes exhibit excellent resistance to sunlight, rain, saltwater, and abrasion, making them widely used by fishermen for anchoring and securing boats.
The Cock Rope production process adheres to both domestic and European standards, including:

  • Certification from Vietnam Register (VR) attesting to the Manufacturing Capacity with the registration number 00151/20CN.MS and the Manufacturing Process with the registration number 00151/20CN.WA.
  • Environmental certification (Certificate of Treatment) from INSEE Ecocycle.
  • ISO 14001 certification for environmental management.
  • ISO 9001 certification for quality management.
  • Lloyd’s certification.

b) Product Diversity

As of the present moment, Siam Brothers Vietnam has diversified its rope product lines with over a few thousand different SKUs and various make-to-order (MTO) products. These include products under different brands such as Con Gà Vàng, Con Gà, and Hải Mã for long-distance fishing net ropes; ropes for nearshore fishing net operations; aquaculture ropes; agricultural ropes such as straw tie ropes, banana tree tie ropes, trellis ropes, greenhouse ropes, etc. Additionally, Siam Brothers Vietnam is developing new products in the versatile rope category for household, sailing, safety, and more.
Large-sized ropes are used for ship mast rigging and mooring ropes, and find applications in the maritime industry. Medium or smaller-sized Cock ropes are applied in aquaculture, serving as fishing net ropes for catching seafood, and as heavy-duty tie-down and towing ropes. They are also used in agriculture, forestry, and fisheries for tying and anchoring.
Customers, when considering the use of Cock Ropes, should carefully choose the size that aligns with their intended purpose.
