UHMWPE
UHMWPE netting is constructed from Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE). This fiber is used in many applications from bullet proof vests and military applications, to fishing lines, marine ropes and sports products.
The biggest advantages of UHMWPE fibers with regards to sports netting is the strength relative to the size of the twine. UHMWPE netting can achieve a very high break and burst strength while maintaining a very small twine size, allowing for better visibility, and improved wind and ice loading. In order to achieve an equivalent strength with typical Nylon netting, you'd have to go twice as thick with the twine. Not only is visibility, and loading improved, but also longevity.
We offer fully customized installation services and design services for backstop net systems.
