Onion Mesh for Fast and Visible Temporary Barriers

Onion Mesh is a lightweight barrier fabric made from 100% virgin HDPE with UV protection built in. It is designed for short-term projects where cost matters but safety cannot be compromised. The material is wrap knitted, weighs between 40 and 120gsm, and comes in standard roll sizes of 0.9 by 50m, 1m by 50m, and 1.5 by 50m, with custom options available on request.

What sets this mesh apart is how quickly it goes up. Heavy-duty straps run along both the top and bottom edges, so crews can tie it straight onto support posts without extra hardware or fuss. The bright orange surface with yellow stripes makes the barrier hard to miss, which matters on busy sites where pedestrians and workers share space. The UV-resistant construction means it holds its color and strength through long hours of sunlight rather than fading or turning brittle after a few weeks.


In practice, Onion Mesh shows up wherever a temporary boundary needs to be clear and cheap to maintain. Construction crews use it to contain debris and dust, mark off guardrails, and wrap scaffolding. Plant and refinery maintenance teams hang it during shutdowns. The mesh does not pretend to be a permanent fencing solution, and that is exactly the point. It is affordable, fast to deploy, and visible enough to do the job it was made for.
