Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the mesh aperture?
Work from the smallest stock you need to retain — 3 mm diamond for seed and spat, 6 mm square and 8 mm diamond for intermediate grades, and 12 mm or 20 mm square for grow-out and larger stock.
What size is a roll?
Every size is supplied as a 30 m roll, 915 mm wide, weighing roughly 30 kg.
Can I buy it by the metre?
No — oyster mesh is sold in full rolls only.
How many rolls do I need?
One 30 m x 915 mm roll covers about 27.45 m², so divide the area you need to cover by that figure and round up.
What is the difference between diamond and square mesh?
Diamond mesh is more flexible and conforms better to baskets and trays; square mesh holds its shape and is generally chosen for larger apertures and grow-out.
Are the 8 mm and 12 mm diamond sizes available?
They are not on the standard published list. Contact us and we will confirm current availability and lead time.
What is it made from, and who makes it?
The material specification and manufacturer are not stated on the listing; we confirm both on enquiry.
