Material Options

Choose from a range of professional materials suited for outdoor use:

Polystretch
Polystretch is a flexible and lightweight airmesh polyester fabric, ideal for temporary Heras fencing panel installations. It’s dye sublimation printed for vibrant colours and can be folded easily, making it perfect for quick installation at construction sites, events, or festivals.

PVC Mesh
UV printed PVC Mesh is a cost effective and strong material commonly used for Heras fence scrims when privacy, branding, and durability are required. With its airflow properties, it performs well in moderate wind conditions, making it a reliable choice for fencing around building sites and developments.

Fairlyn Mesh
Fairlyn Mesh offers a heavier-duty alternative to Polystretch (airmesh), designed for longer term use in more exposed outdoor environments. This durable airmesh fabric is also dye sublimation printed, delivering vibrant and long lasting print for Heras fence scrims on active construction sites or perimeter fencing.

Knitted Polyester
Knitted Polyester is the premium choice for event and construction site branding where appearance and durability are key. With a smoother finish, this Heras fence banner option is washable, long lasting, and printed using dye sublimation to ensure rich, full colour print.
