A Family Tradition of Innovation

Fineline Marine was co-founded in 1996 by Peter and Evan Lawrence, but the Lawrence family’s textile journey began long before that. In 1937, Jack Lawrence established New Zealand’s first braiding operation. His founding principles—honesty, integrity, and absolute quality—remain at the heart of Fineline Marine today. With decades of expertise and innovation, Fineline has built a reputation for delivering cordage solutions that stand up to the toughest demands.

With advanced automated European braiders and twisters, every product is made to the highest standard. Over 35% of Fineline Marine’s production is exported worldwide, showcasing their global reputation, while still proudly supporting local sailing clubs and marine organisations.
