Gintec has you covered

Anti-hail structures are uniquely designed using netting that provides protection for crops that are vulnerable to hail such as tender fruit.

Our anti-hail structure is a tensioned cable system supported by wooden or steel poles and anchored by augers with a large helix screwed into the ground around the perimeter of the structure. The structure uses poles set down the tree rows (the poles can also be used to support a trellis system) to provide support for a ridge wire.

GintecPRO Guard Netting is secured to the ridge wire and attached to the next rows netting using special clips to form a valley. During a hail storm, hail will land on the netting, bounce down toward the valley and drop harmlessly between the rows.

Netting can be stored on the ridge wire during the winter to reduce time and labour of removal.

Maximum area per structure – 20ha. Maximum row length – 500m.
