HAILERA™ Leno Hail Netting

HAILERA™ Leno Hail Netting is a woven anti-hail net for permanent overhead canopy systems in orchards and vineyards. Made of 100% virgin HDPE monofilament in a leno (gauze) weave, it shields apples, pears and grapes from hail while letting most of the light through — supplied in 200 m rolls, in crystal or black.

  • Damage Stays Local — the locked weave keeps a puncture from running.
  • Built for Long Rows — reinforced selvages carry the load on 200 m runs.
  • UV Grade to Order — 700 / 1200 / 1500 kLy; warranty 5 / 8 / 10 years follows.
  • 100% Virgin Resin — stabilisers only protect chains that arrive intact.

About this net

Leno is a locking weave: two or more warp threads cross over each other and interlace with the filling thread, so every intersection is tied rather than laid over. In a fabric as open as a hail net, that is what keeps yarns from sliding under load — push a branch or a hailstone through, and the geometry holds. Damage stays where it happened.

The extra material goes where the load goes. Both lateral selvages and the centre line carry additional yarn, because on a 200 m run the selvage is what hangs between your anchor points. Under-build it and the net sags mid-season — the single most common way a net stops performing long before its UV life is up.

The polymer is 100% virgin HDPE monofilament with a BASF UV stabiliser and anti-oxidant package. Virgin matters more than it sounds: stabilisers can only protect polymer chains that arrive intact, and recycled feedstock arrives with its chains already partly broken. That is why there is no recycled content in this net.

The crystal build is a transparent, natural-white weave suited to colour-critical fruit trees; the black build adds shade for high-radiation regions. Rolls ship to growers across Australia, New Zealand, the Americas and Europe.

Choose your model

Seven builds, one rule: choose hole size against the largest hailstones your region actually gets. Denser models also add windbreak — a bonus on exposed sites, worth watching in humid valleys.

Last row: same 65 g/m², thicker 0.35 mm yarn, larger hole — durability without shade, for wind-limited rather than sun-limited sites. Shade values shown are for the standard build; crystal runs from ~7%, black from ~25%.

Rolls run 200 m, in 4.0 m and 4.5 m widths or made to measure — roughly 35–63 kg per roll depending on model and width. Width rule of thumb: row spacing plus pitch allowance; send us your row spacing and we will confirm the width.

Installation & maintenance

  1. Anchor to the selvage. The reinforced edges and centre line are structural, not decorative — fix to them, not to the field of the net.
  2. Tension errors go both ways. Too loose and wind abrasion at the contact points finishes the net early; too tight and there is no give left when a hailstorm actually loads it.
  3. Protect every net-to-frame contact point. This is also a condition of the warranty.
  4. Off-season: dry, shaded storage. Netting ages faster in a heap in the yard than it does on the frame — here is why.

Colour & Shade
CrystalBlack
Same structure, two builds: crystal runs ~7% shade (93% light transmission — colour-safe for apples and table grapes); black runs ~25% for high-radiation regions where heat load is the problem. Exact value varies with model density.
UV Grade

Which of the seven 5116 models do I need for my hail size?

Choose hole size against the largest hailstones your region typically sees — the model table above lists all seven builds. Denser models also add 30–35% windbreak; factor that in on humid, still sites.

When should I order black instead of crystal?

Black (~25% shade) is for high-radiation regions where heat load is the problem. In temperate orchards where fruit colour matters, crystal transmits ~93% of light — colour-safe for apples and table grapes.

Can the same net be made in different UV grades?

Yes — 700, 1200 or 1500 kLy to match your region's annual radiation. The warranty follows the grade: 5, 8 or 10 years pro-rata.

Will Leno netting keep codling moth or other insects out?

No. The holes are far larger than insect-exclusion mesh. If insect pressure is part of your problem, look at our insect netting range instead: https://eyouagro.com/topic/insect-netting/

If the net is punctured, will the hole spread?

No. The leno weave locks warp threads at every intersection, so damage stays local instead of running — the net keeps working until you patch it.

Can I mix colours or models within one order?

Yes. The 20,000 m² minimum order can be split across colours and models — tell us the split when you request the quote.

If I extend my orchard next year, will a new batch match?

Keep your original order number or a roll label: we produce from the same specification and masterbatch recipe, so a repeat order runs to the same build.

Order 4–5 months ahead of your hail season. Production runs ≥60 days plus 30–40 days shipping — for an April season in the northern hemisphere, that means ordering by November–December.
