What is the advantage of using a camouflage net?

As the name suggests, the camouflage net protects against the outside world by blocking the view. With different opacity levels, you can choose to what extent you wish to block the view.

The camouflage net can also protect a terrace against wind. The grade of wind protection expressed as a percentage will depend on the height of the net and its shade level. These nets let through some air in order to best protect fences and posts from deterioration.




Tip: If you wish to protect yourself against wind or if you live in a very windy area, we recommend choosing a wind screen, which offers effective protection against wind and is more opaque. Camouflage nets do not cope well when exposed to strong winds and can be torn away by strong gales.




Compared to other kinds of camouflage nets, this one has a number of advantages:


Easy installation
Durability
Multiple colours
Can be cut-to-measure
Lower costs


Camouflage net: easy and simple to install

The first advantage of the camouflage net is its easy installation. Whether it comes with eyelets or not, its installation does not require any additional equipment, save for mounting accessories, which can be used without any tools.

In case of camouflage nets without eyelets, there are a few options. You can use green clips or black round clips. We recommend using 3 to 4 clips per 1 metre of the net. The other option is to use mounting kits.

When it comes to camouflage nets with eyelets, they can be mounted using plastic ties, such as cable ties.





Tip: If you live in a windy area, we recommend increasing the number of mounting elements per metre in order to limit the risk of tearing.





More information on how to mount the net in a garden or on a balcony can be found in our article "How to mount a camouflage net with or without eyelets?".

Naturally resistant camouflage net

The camouflage net, which is very often used outdoors, where it is exposed to weather conditions, is reliable and resistant to UV radiation, rain and frost.

Maintaining its proper condition does not require any particular care, unlike hedges and fences, which need regular maintenance.

Net with a protective UV coating


When exposed to sunlight, polyethylene deteriorates under UV radiation. By adding a stabilising agent, the anti-UV coating ensures net's durability.

Resistant to water

All nets offered by Maille Store are made from polyethylene. This material does not decay in contact with water as it is resistant to rotting. For outdoor purposes, use a polyethylene net.

Camouflage net suitable for gardens and balconies

Another strength of the camouflage net is that it has a wide range of uses. Its installation is problem-free, whether it is mounted on a fence, enclosure or a balustrade.

Multiple colours and sizes

Sizes: Standard and custom-made

Apart from nets which come in standard dimensions, Maille Store also offers a custom-made range to help you freely choose the net's length. This will allow you to perfectly match the net to your needs and to order the right size.


Our custom-made camouflage nets:








100% opacity
90% opacity






Colours

Our offer includes a wide range of colours, both in standard and non-standard sizes. From discreet green that blends in with the plants, to granite, creating a warm atmosphere on the terrace: everyone will find the colour they like.

Opacity percentage

The opacity percentage is one of the criteria in selecting the right camouflage net. At Maille Store, this percentage ranges from 75% to 100%.

The width of polyethylene tapes and the size of woven netting allow for determining the final shape of the camouflage net. Tapes are made by crushing and mechanical stretching of polyethylene strands.

New finishes coming soon: tapes and eyelets on nets

Currently, the only factor differentiating the finish of nets is whether they are fitted with eyelets. However, Maille Store will soon also offer nets with tapes and eyelets. With new finishes, the installation will be even simpler and the mounting more durable.

Now you know why camouflage nets are an ideal solution for protecting the garden against outside looks. Soon, you will be able to fully enjoy your terrace. In order to stay up-to-date with Maille Store news (discounts, new products, sale, etc.), you can follow us on Facebook.
