Posted by Duncan Page on Thu, Jul 02, 2009
There are several different types of extruded plastic meshes made by Tenax that can be used as safety fence. These products are ideal for many uses including: creating a clearly defined barrier, marking off construction areas, temporary fence around swimming pools, crowd control barriers and boundary delineation. Strong, light in weight and easy to handle, the fences can be rolled up after use, taken to another location and used again. The meshes are UV protected. There are two different mesh styles available.
