Badinotti NETPolyester Plus
Polyester is a popular product in aquaculture applications such as Tilapia farming. However, Polyester can also be used for other species depending on the specific fish farming requirement.
Traditionally, Polyester is the fiber with the lowest price per kilogram. Lower costs can provide for more affordable nets, even though polyester is heavier than nylon at the same resistance level.
Lower Shrinkage
Polyester offers a lower shrinkage rate for many cycles compared to nylon; polyester is a bulkier material. To reach the same breaking load as nylon, the weight of polyester will be greater. This can be compensated with the application of resinous products or our AB-Lock® net product. AB-Lock® ensures greater abrasion resistance and less shrinkage throughout the cycle.

Why Choose POLYESTER Plus?
Breaking Resistance
This product offers high resistance to breaking and is more elastic as compared to UHMWPE products.
Abrasion Resistance
Because polyester is heavier than nylon, to reach the same level of resistance to traction, the diameter of the net bars is thicker, giving it greater abrasion resistance.
UV Resistance & Flexibility
Polyester products provide very good UV resistance compared to nylon. Allows for the use of antifouling paints and onsite cleaning.
