A study commissioned by APCO last year found that only 8% of polypropylene (PP5) packaging on the market was being recovered for recycling (~12,000 from 164,000 tonnes). This is despite polypropylene being relatively easy to mould and work with. From a recyclability perspective, polypropylene has pretty much an infinite lifecycle. Here at Nettco, we have been hard at work researching and developing products using 100% recycled PP. We have successfully been able to produce a trimmer line that is comparable to big name manufacturers. Using this technique further, we are able to produce a monofilament with the recycled pp, that can then be warp knitted into barrier mesh and Geotextiles! With this technology, Australia can breathe easier knowing that plastics will not end up in landfill or the ocean

An amazing video showing the intelligence and man-power that has gone into the Cross-River Rail project! Our yellow, orange, and green safety mesh can be seen as the camera makes its way down the tunnel. Each panel was carefully fabricated in Ipswich by our skilled team here at Nettco.

2021 was our Year of Tunnelling. A year where we excavated massive caverns, stations, and twin tunnels. Take a look back at what was achieved on Cross River ...

Brisbane has been a buzz about the new Cross-River Rail project that started construction in 2017. We were proud to contribute to the project by supplying quality, bright flame resistant safety meshing for the tunneling. Our product has helped keep the workers safe, acting as a guard from debris and machinery. Nettco successfully supplied over 10kms worth of panels, expertly cut and fabricated by our team here in Ipswich

An interesting article that has proven the positive results of using evaporation control on farms. Modules such as the ones we can provide, can lower evaporation rates by 90% in some instances. And as Australians know too well, every drop counts!

A substantial proportion of Kangaroo Island producers are reliant on farm dams to provide water for livestock and water for domestic use. This article gives options for controlling evaporation loss.
