RopeID – Know Your Rope RopeID is a smart rope identification and tracking platform designed for the marine and industrial world. It transforms traditional ropes into traceable, verifiable, and data-driven assets through a simple QR-based system. Whether you are a bunker station, ship supplier, or end user, RopeID gives you full visibility and confidence in every rope you handle. With RopeID, each rope is assigned a unique digital identity. By scanning the QR code attached to the rope, you instantly access all critical technical data, including rope type, diameter, Minimum Breaking Load (MBL), production year, batch number, and coil length. No more paperwork, no more uncertainty—everything you need is available in seconds. The platform is designed to simplify operations while increasing safety and transparency.
