Your bird netting mesh size affects which birds can enter a protected space. Yet when you buy in bulk, you also need to check the material, net size and finished edges. A useful product range should help your customers choose a net that fits their site.
This guide helps you compare specifications before you place a wholesale bird netting order. You can use it when you supply dealers, retail chains or professional bird control teams.
Start with the bird and the site
First, ask your customer which birds enter the area and where they get through. A warehouse opening, a balcony and a crop protection project can need different net layouts. You should also check how workers will reach doors, equipment and service points after installation.
For a mixed bird problem, identify the smallest target species. Do not choose a net only because its label says “pigeon netting” or “small bird netting.” Ask for the measured opening and confirm suitability for the local birds and use conditions.
Bird netting mesh size: compare 15 mm and 20 mm
Paiste lists two HDPE bird netting models with different mesh sizes. HDPE means high-density polyethylene, a type of plastic. The table below shows the published specifications so you can compare them on the same basis.
| Specification | GKN-1 | GKN-2 |
|---|---|---|
| Material | HDPE | HDPE |
| Mesh size | 20 × 20 mm | 15 × 15 mm |
| Listed strand diameter | 1 mm | 1 mm |
| Color | Black or brown | Black |
| Listed net dimensions | Confirm for your order | 3 × 10 m; 6 × 50 m; 6 × 100 m |
The 15 mm opening is smaller than the 20 mm opening. However, this comparison does not establish a guaranteed bird-species rating. You still need to check the installed opening, edge gaps and target birds.
You can review the GKN-1 20 mm bird netting specifications when you need black or brown options. For a smaller listed opening, compare the GKN-2 15 mm bird netting and its available net dimensions.
Check more than the opening size
Material and outdoor exposure
Ask your bird netting supplier to confirm the material and UV treatment for the exact model you order. If your customer needs a stated outdoor life, request supporting test information and warranty terms. A material name by itself does not prove a fixed number of years.
Strand thickness and construction
Compare strand diameter, knot construction and edge finish on a sample. Check for uneven openings, loose knots and damaged strands. Also ask how the factory measures the mesh so your purchase specification and inspection method agree.
Net dimensions and access
Measure the area before selecting a panel or roll. Include the edges, joins and planned access points in your layout. Then ask your installer to confirm the required allowance. A low price per roll may offer poor value if the roll dimensions create large amounts of waste.
Match your wholesale bird netting range to your buyers
| Your buyer | What to confirm |
|---|---|
| Dealers and distributors | Clear differences between models, repeat-order specifications and carton quantities. |
| Large retail chains | Pack dimensions, net size labels, barcodes and simple instructions in the required language. |
| Pest control companies | Project dimensions, target birds, installation details and inspection access. |
You do not need to stock every possible size. Start with the jobs your customers handle most often. Next, compare a small set of samples and build your range around clear differences in mesh and net dimensions.
Include installation checks in your buying plan
Bird exclusion netting needs a closed boundary. Ask your installer how the net will meet walls, roof edges, pipes and doors. An open edge can let birds enter even when the mesh itself is suitable.
Use the tension and fixing method recommended for the chosen net and support system. Avoid loose pockets and inspect for damage or trapped wildlife. Before enclosing an area, check that birds are not inside and address active nests under the local requirements.
What should you send with a bulk inquiry?
Give your supplier a clear brief so you can compare quotations more easily:
- Destination market and buyer type.
- Target bird and intended use site.
- Required mesh size, material, color and net dimensions.
- Estimated quantity for each size.
- Packaging, label and barcode requirements.
- Sample checks and supporting documents you need.
Before approval, record the agreed dimensions and acceptable tolerances. Keep an approved sample for future orders. This gives your warehouse team a useful reference when the shipment arrives.
Frequently asked questions
Is smaller bird netting mesh always better?
No. You need an opening that suits the target bird and installation. You should also compare net construction, handling, dimensions and project requirements.
Can you compare bird nets by price per roll?
Only after you confirm the roll dimensions and specifications. Compare the total area, material, mesh size and packing details before deciding which quote offers better value.
Can you use the same net for buildings and crops?
Some models may suit more than one use, but you should confirm the installation method and local requirements for each job. Do not assume that every building net is suitable for direct crop coverage.
Can you request custom net sizes and packaging?
Yes. You can discuss mesh size, net dimensions, color and packaging with Paiste. Confirm the available options, minimum order quantity and lead time for your selected specification.
