What is High-Density Polyethylene?
High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is one of the most commonly used plastics. The versatility of polyethylene has made it one of the world's most popular plastics. Labeled as #2 plastic, it is commonly found in refillable plastic bottles, plastic tables and chairs, and other plastic containers. It is both reusable and recyclable, thus an environmentally friendly product.

Properties of HDPE Plastic Netting
HDPE plastic netting has several properties that make it an ideal product for garden, agricultural or everyday use. It is stronger than standard polyethylene, acts as an effective barrier and remains solid at room temperature. It resists insects, rot and other chemicals. It is easily recyclable and can be used again and again. Recycled HDPE creates no harmful emissions during its production or during its use by the consumer. Also, HDPE leaks no toxic chemicals into the soil or water.

HDPE Plastic Netting VS. Wire Mesh
Essentially, both products can be used in the same way as barriers or screens. While wire mesh is either twisted or welded together, plastic netting is extruded from its raw material, HDPE, and processed to form various mesh sizes, creating either Hexagonal or Square-shaped mesh. Compared to wire mesh, plastic netting does not corrode or rust when exposed to the elements. Also, plastic netting is lighter and more flexible than wire mesh. It is typically used in agricultural, aquacultural & gardening applications.
