Monofilaments Monofilaments advantages:advantages:

• High tensile-strength

• Round homogenous fiber

• Quality controlled production

• Excellent UV stabilization

• Accurate dimensions

• Smooth and uniform

7

Technical advantages:Technical advantages:

• Material: 100% new HDPE• High strength round monofilament

fibers• Woven nets have constant shade

factor• Woven nets do not stretch or deform• Exact hole & fiber dimensions• Excellent UV stabilization• Fast and easy installation

8

Why fiber diameterWhy fiber diameter is so important ? is so important ?

Fiber with diameter of 0.24 mm. has 44% more areathan 0.20 mm. fiber

For a slight increase in price:

44% more mechanical strength

44% more UV stabilization
