KATRADIS is proud to announce the establishment of a new stock point in Namibia, marking another important milestone in the company’s ongoing strategy to expand its global footprint and enhance service capabilities in key maritime regions around the world.
As one of Africa’s most strategically positioned maritime hubs, Namibia plays a vital role in supporting shipping, fishing, offshore energy, and port operations throughout the South Atlantic region. Recognizing the growing demand for reliable mooring and marine rope solutions in this market, KATRADIS has taken a significant step forward by creating a local stock presence that will ensure faster product availability and improved customer support.
The first product available from the new stock point is the renowned IMPROVED 8, a trusted rope solution featuring polyester cover yarns around a polyolefin core, with polyester fibers representing a minimum of 40% of its total mass. Recognized for its reliable performance and durability, IMPROVED 8 has earned the trust of marine professionals worldwide.

For more than 90 years, KATRADIS has continuously invested in product innovation, quality assurance, and global accessibility. The company’s ropes are trusted by marine, offshore, industrial, and commercial operators across the world, supported by a network of stock points and partners dedicated to delivering excellence in every aspect of service.
As KATRADIS continues to grow its international presence, customers in Southern Africa can now benefit from quicker access to one of the industry’s most trusted rope products, with even more solutions expected to become available in the near future.
The establishment of the Namibia stock point is not only an investment in local availability but also part of a broader vision to strengthen KATRADIS’ international distribution network. While IMPROVED 8 is currently the first and only product stocked at the location, plans are already in place to expand the range of products available in the future. As demand grows and market requirements evolve, additional rope constructions and specialized solutions will be introduced to better serve customers throughout Namibia and neighboring countries.
