Built to last and made in the UK, our Everlasto Orient clothes lines combine trusted performance with a classic design. These high-quality PVC clothes lines have been a staple since the 1950s, originally produced at Orient Mill in Bolton, home of the first PVC washing line introduced to the UK market. Each line features a tough, wipe-clean PVC outer and a strong three-strand cabled polypropylene core for added strength and stability. At nearly 5mm thick, they’re a solid, traditional choice for everyday use. Available in a range of translucent colours, the Orient line brings both function and heritage to any garden or yard.

Made in the UK, these incredibly high-quality and durable clothes lines are named after ‘Orient Mill’ in Bolton, the factory where they were first produced when James Lever introduced the PVC clothes line to the UK market in the 1950s. So, you can rest assured that you’re getting the original and best quality products.
At nearly 5mm thick, these strong plastic clothes lines could be considered the ‘Rolls-Royce’ of clothes lines; they’re often described as a ‘proper’ clothes line from a bygone era, the likes of which are very tough to source these days. Available in five translucent colours of the ‘Orient’, these quality plastic clothes lines are sure to suit any garden. Made with a wipe-clean PVC outer and a strong three-strand cabled polypropylene core for strength, you can rely on their durability and longevity too.
Yes, the Orient PVC clothes line is well suited for year-round outdoor use. The PVC coating is weather-resistant and easy to clean, while the internal polypropylene core resists moisture and temperature changes. It won’t rot, rust, or absorb water, so it can stay outside in all seasons – hence why they’ve been the very best washing lines available in the UK for the better part of 100 years.
Absolutely. With its 5mm thickness and strong three-strand cabled core, the Orient clothes line is ideal for heavier loads. It holds up perfectly under the heavy weight of wet towels, bedding, and other bulky laundry. Unlike thinner plastic lines, it resists sagging and maintains consistent tension across longer runs.
While any plastic exposed to direct sunlight may eventually show some signs of wear, these lines retain their colour well under normal outdoor conditions. The finish is also easy to wipe clean, helping to maintain their appearance with minimal upkeep. If you're concerned about long-term exposure, placing the line in a partly shaded area can help.
Orient coloured PVC clothes lines are available in a variety of standard lengths to suit different garden or yard setups. They come in five translucent colours, chosen to complement a range of outdoor spaces while keeping a traditional look. Whether you want something discreet or a bit more eye-catching, there’s a colour option to suit.
