This environmental netting was installed a number of years ago to protect native plants in the Adelaide's River Torrens from swans and other wildlife damaging them whilst they grew. They needed to protect the plants from the top, side and under the water. The nets needed to allow room for growth. Each net unit also had to remain tethered to the same spot whilst moving up and down with the tide.
We manufactured the netting in our factory and assembled the units on-site on the banks of the river before getting out on a boat and installing them in their final places. The first row of photos shows the nets straight after installation. The second row of photos shows recently performed maintenance on the nets where we went back to ensure that the nets were still performing as designed and refurbish any damage caused through wear and tear.

Sometimes we have people come into the factory with random one off requests... Caroline came to get some netting for an art project featuring fish and a half naked man lying on a wooden floor. She was kind enough to send us some signed photos from her finished project which you can see below.
