It’s been over 10 years since Drape Net was conceived. We looked into ways to protect our trees because we had suffered eight separate hail events and did not want to pay the high cost for structured net.
Over the past 10 years we have learned a great deal and have changed and modified the net and the machinery used to apply and collect it.
Simple and easy to store
The simplicity of Drape Net is the best thing about it. Drape Net is adaptable and can be moved and stored easily.
DIY
Drape Net is DIY (do it yourself), so no contractors are needed to apply or collect it; and no council approval is needed.
Proven results
Drape Net has proven its effectiveness over the last 10 years.
‘Results’ are its best selling point—whether for hail protection in Batlow, protection from birds in WA, or from sunburn in Victoria.
Grower comments
“If it was up to me we would cover the whole place,” pack house family member, Victoria.
“We are getting much cleaner fruit under Drape Net,” Batlow grower.
Accepted concept
It is a good feeling when fellow growers take up the concept of Drape Net.
Thank you to our new customers this season.
