AgroPET Wire
AgroPET is a high quality – low cost alternative to galvanized wires. AgroPET is made up of polyester filament with high tenacity due to its mechanical properties. It has many uses in agriculture where we see it replacing wire in many applications including trellising, roofing and shading for greenhouses, fencing, netting installations and drip line support.
In the production of AgroPET, select raw material is used to provide a high quality product which exhibits superior strength and durability. An anti-UV additive is added to the product which protects and extends the life of the filament in all weather conditions and climates.
