Fencing
Our PVC fence post and rail system is suitable for both temporary and permanent applications. We can manufacture the posts with reground and recycled material, creating a sustainable, eco-friendly product.
The primary application for our PVC fence posts has been boundary fences, and temporary equestrian and show-jumping fencing. With a simple, contemporary design they remain the most popular fencing option for this application. Given their versatile design, the posts have also been utilised as barrier posts for carparks and walkways.
