Gnitches have very wide functional properties. Two types of material are used for the manufacture of meshes. Meshes can be made of polyethylene or polypropylene. The material from which they are made makes the nets have different properties. Each of them has characteristics suitable for indoor and outdoor conditions and is characterized by desirable physical characteristics in many applications. So, which grid is better? Everything depends on what purpose we would like to use it for. Mesh, both polyethylene and polypropylene, can be used in areas such as sports, construction, agriculture, gardening and many other specialties. Securing aviaries, protection against birds, building fences, using for the production of sliding tapes, ball catchers or gates are just some of the applications of polyethylene mesh and polypropylene mesh.

The polyethylene mesh has special nodes that guarantee the rigidity of the mesh. Polyethylene mesh is certainly more rigid and resistant to weather conditions, so it will certainly serve for many years. Polyethylene is characterized by resistance to low temperatures, UV radiation and mechanical damage. In addition, it does not react chemically with salts and acids. In contrast, polypropylene mesh has the shape of squares and is characterized by a narrow-node structure, thanks to which they are very resistant to stretching and elastic. Polypropylene meshes are also resistant to mechanical damage, but unlike polyethylene, polypropylene is less resistant to UV radiation.

Polyethylene mesh mesh for aviaries for birds

One of the main applications of polyethylene nets is primarily the construction and protection of aviaries for birds. Aviaries are a free paddock for birds, in contrast to small cages or chicken coops. The grid is sold for any size, which is important when building aviaries with a large area. Safety nets protect animals bred in aviaries such as chickens, ducks, geese, pheasants, quails, partridges and ornamental or exotic birds. Polyethylene nets protect aviaries against various types of threats, i.e. branches from trees, other birds such as sparrows or starlings and also against the escape of birds bred in them. Meshes are produced with different mesh sizes. Its purpose depends on what species of birds we would like to breed. Polyethylene meshes with a small mesh size of 15 x 15 mm are especially recommended in breeding smaller ornamental birds such as canaries, zebra finches or chechens. The mesh size grids with a side size of 80 x 80 mm will be a great fence for chickens and protection of animals also from predators, such as hawks.

Polyethylene mesh as a protective net against birds

The polyethylene mesh provides effective protection against intrusive birds such as starlings, bullfinches, blackbirds and pigeons. Polyethylene mesh can be used to create a barrier, securing many different places. This will prevent the birds from getting to the other side. The mesh is made of plastic - polyethylene, provides tear strength. Plastic mesh is a special salvation for people living in cities, struggling with intrusive birds, in particular pigeons. These birds are especially untidy when they destroy flowers on balconies and leave unpleasant feces.PE nets mounted to the balcony stop pigeons and other birds from sitting on railings or window sills and sitting in flowers. Mesh nets also protect against falling out of various things from the balcony and, above all, children. Their big advantage is simple and effective assembly. The mesh size of the mesh that will work most effectively during protection against birds is 25-40 mm.

Polyethylene meshes as nets for the protection of orchards from birds

Plastic reticle is successfully used against birds in horticulture and horticulture. The safety net protects fruit trees and shrubs from destruction by starlings and birds of other species. These birds can cause damage, leading to havoc and emptying of crops. Polyethylene mesh is a physical barrier for birds and effectively hinders their entry into the fruits of trees and shrubs. The mesh size of the pe mesh and the thickness of the string in this case must be properly selected so that it does not limit the access of sunlight. The protection of a polyethylene mesh orchard should have a mesh size from 25 mm to 40 mm, and the thickness of the string should be as small as possible.The safety net can be installed directly on trees and shrubs or on a previously prepared structure. The construction is very useful in the case of securing more trees or entire orchards. The mesh on the structure thus provides a greater degree of protection against birds.

Polyethylene mesh as a protective net for a cat

The wide use of nets will also find its role in the safe life of a cat. Durable mesh can be used both indoors and outdoors. Protective nets will protect the balcony, windows and other dangerous places from our pet falling out and then falling from a height. Cats love to walk and be in the fresh air. Polyethylene nets are a great solution to secure places in the garden and build an aviary that will protect the cat from escape, and at the same time our pet will be able to stay in the fresh air. Their big advantage is a wide selection of mesh sizes, so we can adjust it to the size of our pets. Plastic nets with meshes from 25 mm will be a very good solution for kittens and smaller cats. Eyelets up to 40 mm are perfect for adults and large cats.

Polyethylene mesh as a net for a football goal

Gews are a popular material used on sports fields and sports halls. Polypropylene nets and polyethylene nets are recommended for use indoors and in enclosed halls. Polyethylene nets for sports facilities have different string thickness and mesh size depending on the type of sport for which they will be needed. Typically, the mesh size of the net used in sports is between 60 to 80 mm. Football goals are very often exposed to water and sunlight, so it is very important to pay attention to the material from which they are made. Polypropylene and polyethylene are high-quality materials resistant to strong impacts. Sports nets do not lose their properties and will not wear out quickly. Polyethylene nets are especially recommended for goals due to their high resistance to stretching and will work well in sports where the impact of the ball is quite strong.

Polyethylene nets as ball-catcher nets

To secure the games, it is worth using polyethylene nets as ball catchers. Taking into account the appropriate thickness of the string and the size of the mesh from the net, you can build a fence of sports fields, curtains, nets for windows, walls or ceilings and ball catchers in any sensitive places where balls can cause damage. Ball catchers prevent the ball from getting outside the now designated one and are a solution that guarantees the safety of the audience against a dangerous hit of the ball. Polyethylene and polypropylene nets have many properties for which they are willingly chosen as ball catchers. The use of material in the form of polypropylene and polyethylene makes the safety nets durable and resistant to water and stretching caused by the impact of the ball. In this case, meshes that have large meshes from 60 to 100 mm are ideal.

Polyethylene grids as tennis nets

High-density polyethylene also finds its application as a tennis court equipment. The net sold for tennis can be made using polyethylene and polypropylene. Its use on the court is versatile. The plastic mesh can be used as a game net, ball catchers, a court fence, a net separating two courts and a protective net against a dangerous impact. The mesh is sold with a large selection of mesh sizes. On tennis courts, due to a ball of smaller size, small meshes of mesh with a size from 15 to 25 mm will work best.
