FAQs
Is this jute string safe for use around food?
Yes, it is natural jute, making it suitable for tying food items like herb bundles or roasting meat, provided you are mindful of cleanliness.
Can I use this string for heavy-duty construction?
No, this is intended for light-to-medium duty tasks like gardening and crafting; it is not rated for heavy-duty load-bearing.
How do I prevent the string from rotting outdoors?
While jute is naturally biodegradable, you can prolong its life by keeping it away from constant standing water or soil contact.
Is the twine dyed or treated with chemicals?
This product features a natural finish, making it a great choice for those preferring chemical-free materials.
How many meters do I get in total?
You receive two rolls of 120 metres each, totaling 240 metres.
Troubleshooting
String is tangling while pulling from the roll
Unroll the string slowly from the exterior of the coil rather than pulling from the center if the spool is tight.
Ends are fraying after cutting
Apply a small piece of clear tape or a tiny dab of craft glue to the tip to keep the fibers bound together.
String is slipping during knotting
Use a double knot or a reef knot; the natural texture of the jute typically provides excellent friction to keep knots secure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the twine, remove the outer packaging and locate the end of the string from the center or outer coil. Pull slowly to avoid tangling. When cutting, use sharp scissors to ensure a clean end without fraying.
For care, store any unused portions in a cool, dry place away from direct moisture to prevent mildew. If using outdoors, consider periodically checking the ties on plants, as natural jute may eventually weaken due to sunlight and moisture. To extend its lifespan, avoid storing the rolls in direct contact with wet ground or standing water.
