Dyneema, the world’s strongest fiber.
Trust it with your life.

DSM Dyneema is the inventor and manufacturer of Dyneema®, the world's strongest fiber. Dyneema® is a super strong polyethylene fiber that offers maximum strength combined with minimum weight. It is up to 15 times stronger than quality steel and up to 40% stronger than Aramid fibers, both on a weight-for-weight basis. Dyneema® floats on water and is extremely durable and resistant to moisture, UV light and chemicals.

Whether it’s jumping off a mountainside or Powered Paragliding, Dyneema allows people to pursue their flying desires safely, without compromising their performance. Paragliders and PPGer's who use Dyneema lines can enjoy all the thrills of this extreme sport in the confidence that they have made the best choice of wing. Dyneema lines are not only extremely strong, but they are also highly reliable, due to their excellent resistance to abrasion (dragging your lines), UV light (sun light), folding and bending (stuffing it in your bag), moisture (rain/humidity), temperature (hot/cold), sharp bends (prop strikes/tangles) and peak loading (your weight), sounds like Powered ParaGliding to me. The low elongation of Dyneema lines gives paragliders greater control and improved steering. Because Dyneema fibers are much stronger than Arimid fibers (other wing brand lines), a smaller diameter line can be used resulting in low weight and less drag, which in turn results in easier and faster inflation (a critical key component for PPGing).
