Jakob Rope Systems
Swiss Engineering with ropes and cables.
Since 1904.
Jakob Rope Systems has developed a case study for a green shade roof over the market square in Grenchen. Rudolf Lehmann explains the idea behind the design.
A new suspension bridge for St. Moritz: Jakob Rope Systems was commissioned to plan, supply and install the lightweight structure made of steel ropes and Webnet. Another bridge construction project in which our Webnet is integrated as a safety and load-bearing structure.
The rope tension parts in our Forte product line have been awarded the ETA seal of approval. This certifies the tensile limit values of our Forte components.
For the greening of a listed building, our customer Hydroplant developed a solution with GreenTrellis tendril structure and integrated fire protection.
LivingRope is a wire rope construction from which planters are suspended and watered fully automatically. This new system solves the question of how to realize a facade greening with the fastest possible result.
For the fencing of the rooftop sports field at New York's St. Lukes School, the architects chose Webnet. This creates a high-quality combination of security and transparency.
