Differences and advantages of the 3 types of wind screen
Windbreak is a type of netting or grating used to keep out high winds and dust. It can be used to protect crops, suppress sand and dust, etc. Windbreaks are used in a wide range of applications and are used on a large scale, especially in agricultural farming. It is installed to block strong winds, protect crops, protect fruit, suppress sand and dust and shield from wind and sand.
There are 3 common types of windbreaks we use that you must know about.
Type 1, plastic windbreaks
They are all made of plastic, the difference lies in the manufacturing process. The one we commonly see is the flexible windbreak netting. Flexible windbreaks are made of plastic pulled into fibres and then woven. It is very soft, blocks 70% of the wind and comes with pre-set grommets. It can be installed very easily. There is also a knitted wind screen, which has a wide range of shading and wind protection, roughly 35-75%, because of the knitting method. Another type is the extruded plastic windbreak, similar to the snow netting we commonly see, the plastic garden netting. Depending on the grammage and pattern, it has a wind protection of up to 50%.
Type II, metal windbreak panels
Metal windbreaks are very costly and have a very high strength and stability. They are used in industrial applications such as coal mines, power plants and industrial areas. They are usually made of cold rolled steel, galvanised steel, aluminium core steel, stainless steel, etc.
It can be simply divided into.
- Single-peaked windbreak.
- Double-peaked windbreak.
- Three peaks windbreak
- Five-peak windbreak.
The metal panels are available in many colours and are often used as permanent structures because of their luxurious appearance.
Type III, rubbish dump windbreaks
Dump nets are used to keep out rubbish and are mainly made of a solid steel frame. With a height of 5 metres and made of high tenacity polypropylene, the correct installation of a rubbish release net can provide a very good barrier to rubbish.
