Nets and marine cages
High-strength yarn enables netting and strength members designed for current, waves, rigging weight and long-term immersion.
Nets and aquaculture
Stable geometry in seawater
UHMWPE is the primary material: low weight, seawater resistance and high strength. S and LC series cover nets, cages, trawls, seines and marine ropes.
01 — ROLE IN THE PRODUCT
How each material works
The material is selected by its function in the structure. The same product may require different fibres depending on the environment and load.
02 — APPLICATIONS
Where the yarn is used
Deep-water cages
Netting and strength members for offshore aquaculture.
Trawls and seines
Strong lightweight net constructions for industrial fishing.
Safety nets
Nets for marine platforms, coastal work and special structures.
Strength ropes
Rigging, mooring and pulling elements of cage systems.

Supply forms and series
A starting point for a technical inquiry, not a ready-made pilot specification.
- S: 800 / 1000 / 1500 / 1600 / 3000D
- LC: 1600LC2 / 1600LC3
- Overall yarn range up to 4800D
- Colour and construction according to the technical specification
What the material offers
- Non-hygroscopic and seawater resistant
- Density 0.97 g/cm³ — the fibre floats
- High strength with lower rigging weight
- LC series is developed for low creep
Mandatory checks
- Para-aramid is not the primary material for this segment
- Knots and knitting change finished-net strength
- Fouling, UV, abrasion and mesh deformation must be assessed
- Tests are performed on the net and the complete cage system
05 — SELECTION AND PILOT
Four inputs for a technical inquiry
The more precise the inputs, the fewer unnecessary samples and the faster the comparison with the incumbent material.
ConstructionMesh, knot, yarn diameter, density and web weight
LoadCurrent, waves, storms, rigging and lifting
Service lifeCreep, fatigue, ageing and fouling
PilotComparison with the current net under identical conditions
Questions for the product manufacturer
Which cage or net construction is used?
Record the answer in the technical specification together with the control material, pilot volume, test method and acceptance criteria.
How does mesh geometry change under load?
Record the answer in the technical specification together with the control material, pilot volume, test method and acceptance criteria.
What weight and creep are acceptable over a season?
Record the answer in the technical specification together with the control material, pilot volume, test method and acceptance criteria.
Which storm conditions and test methods are mandatory?
Record the answer in the technical specification together with the control material, pilot volume, test method and acceptance criteria.
