Mantis Material: Elevate, Protect, Build.

Sometimes you just need a simple barrier that goes up fast, keeps people out, and doesn't cost a fortune. That's exactly what our Onion Mesh was designed for.

The name comes from its distinctive look, bright orange with red and yellow stripes, but there's nothing funny about how well it works. It's made from HDPE with UV protection built in, so even if your short term job stretches into a few extra weeks of sunshine, the mesh won't turn brittle or fade into uselessness. The weight runs from 40 to 120 grams per square meter, which keeps it light enough for one person to handle easily, but strong enough to contain debris and dust on a construction site.

What I really appreciate about this mesh is how quickly it installs. There are heavy duty ropes sewn right into the top and bottom edges. You just stretch it between posts, tie it off, and you're done. No special tools, no complicated hardware, no wrestling with stiff materials. That means you can put up a long run of barrier in minutes instead of hours, which saves time and labour costs.

People use this stuff for all kinds of temporary jobs. Construction sites use it to keep pedestrians away from danger zones or to contain dust and loose materials. It works well for scaffold netting, industrial maintenance areas, short term guardrails, pretty much anywhere you need a visible, breathable barrier that says "stay back" without blocking all the light and wind. And because it's so affordable, you don't feel bad when the job finishes and you roll it up or toss it.

Standard rolls are 50 meters long, with widths of 0.9, 1.0, or 1.5 meters. Custom sizes are available too if you need something specific. Next time you have a short term project that needs a visible, budget friendly barrier, give Onion Mesh a try. It's simple, it works, and it won't blow your budget.
