Types of avian netting include Stainless Steel Cable Mesh, Chain Link Mesh, Crimped Wire Mesh, and Weld Mesh; this netting borders parcels like fencing or walls. It serves to display animals to the public, typically in zoos, also known as zoological gardens or menageries. We mainly supply five types of avian nettings.
Firstly, stainless steel wire rope mesh avian netting features a stainless steel rope fence and a supporting structure. Secondly, Weld Mesh enclosures, especially stainless steel weld wire mesh, are flexible and often pieced together due to their size. Thirdly, Chain Link Mesh offers a flexible design. You can customize this mesh to any size you need, widely used in zoo mesh and commercial buildings. Fourth, people typically use hexagonal wire mesh in bird aviary wire mesh ranging from 1″ to 3″ for chicken-sized birds. Fifth, manufacturers make Crimped Wire Mesh from high-quality stainless steel or galvanized wire, and it is also used as zoo mesh.
