onwed is the leader in manufacturing and designing plastic netting that meets specific product performance needs. Customers often require distinct characteristics for their end product use that only Conwed netting can provide. Through custom engineering, Conwed develops products to exact specifications to meet our customers’ needs.

EXTRUSION
Extrusion is the base process for many Conwed products. Using an extruder, plastic is melted and pushed through a die forming the pattern of the net. After the plastic moves through the die, it is cooled and the plastic hardens into the pre-determined shape.

ORIENTATION
Orientation is the process that takes extruded net and stretches it in either the machine direction, cross direction, or both directions. Through orientation, Conwed creates its high-strength lightweight netting.

BI-COMPONENT
Bi-component, another Conwed innovation, is the process that creates a netting with different materials in the machine direction and the cross direction. A bi-component net can be different colors in each direction, have stretch in only one direction and an adhesive in another direction, or have different types of resin in each direction. Customers often eliminate a process when using a Conwed bi-component product or create a unique product characteristic with the easy design flexibility of this specialty net engineered to meet the specific needs of customers.

CO-EXTRUSION
Co-extrusion is a Conwed patented technology that forms a multiple layered specialty net. During this process, polymers are bonded to materials in a resin blend or through a process called co-extrusion. Co-extrusion consists of different polymers being melted and pushed through multiple extruders into a common die.
