Our 700m Marking String is a simple yet necessary piece of equipment for groundskeepers, pitch managers, and sports facilities hosting multiple sports or professional events.
It’s suitable for:
Whether you need it to mark out boundaries before permanently painting or to simply create temporary lines for training sessions or tournaments, our high-visibility Marking Twine is the perfect tool for the job.
It comes on a generous 700m spool, giving you plenty of material to use and work with. The twine itself is weather-proof and rot-proof, so should you need to leave the Marking String down for a length of time before painting, it won’t degrade.
The 2.5mm diameter also means it's strong enough to resist the wear and tear of frequent use, while handling high tension with little distortion.
The bright orange colour will ensure the string can be seen during the marking process, and after it has been painted over before removal.

Each sport, like rugby or cricket, has its specific line requirements for courts and pitches that you need to adhere to if you offer those sports at your centre, school, club, or gym. Marking string can help you do this.
You need to prep your surface (brush away debris, mow the grass, etc), and lay out your marking string accurately. You can use pegs to keep the string taut as you go. This string will help you see where you need to paint or spray your lines.
Remove the string once you’ve applied the paint and it’s dry.
Typically, you spray or paint over the twine when forming a sports pitch, in which case, it won’t really be suitable for reuse, as the bright orange colour will not be visible for marking purposes.
However, if you’re using the twine for temporary or makeshift boundaries, it can certainly be used again. Just make sure the twine hasn’t been damaged during any gameplay.
Certainly, a pair of sharp scissors or a knife will do the job well.
