Tarpaflex Donates Debris Netting to the RSPB Great Bustard Project

Debris Netting is one of our most popular products due to its versatility and adaptability in so many applications. Not only can it be used for protection on construction sites, it is also excellent for allotment and crop netting, as a barrier during sports and recreational events, and for partitioning and temporary screening purposes.

Another worthy use for debris netting is illustrated by the RSPB's Great Bustard LIFE Project. This commendable cause seeks to reintroduce the threatened Otis Tarda species into Southern England, and is based on Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire. The LIFE Project's recognised 'soft-release' method houses the young birds in pens for a short time, in order to acclimatise them to the release site, and debris netting has been found to be the ideal material to net the roof of the pens!

Project Manager Tracé Williams got in touch with us to source some 'excellent Tarpaflex debris netting', and we are thrilled to be able to donate five rolls of our 3m x 50m Black Netting to this worthwhile venture. These five rolls will be used for the next phase of the project (due to begin in 2014), when the LIFE Project will be creating six rearing pens and three release pens, all of which need to be netted.

Cable Ties are the recommended method for fixing debris netting in place.
