Choosing the wrong netting or posts can cost you thousands of euros
The colour of the netting changes the light your crop receives. The post — wood, concrete or metal — determines how long the structure lasts and what it costs. And every farm is different: what works on your neighbour's may not work on yours.
In this video we explain how to get both decisions right before you invest.
- Which netting colour suits your crop.
- Wood, concrete or metal: when each type of post pays off.
- How to adapt the installation to your farm so you don't overpay.

NovaNet®: the anti-hail netting we make ourselves
We manufacture our own high-density polyethylene (HDPE) monofilament netting in Spain. Controlling production lets us guarantee the quality of the yarn and the weave, adapt sizes and reinforcements to each project, and have material in stock when the season gets busy.
- 0.32 mm yarn in warp and weftHigh resistance to breaking and tearing, with 950 kLy UV protection.
- Seven models for every cropClearView, LightGrey, GreyGuard, BlackShield, BlackDense, WhiteGlow and DualBlend: from maximum light transmission to maximum shading.
- Custom sizes and reinforcementsWe adapt the netting to the planting layout and the installation system.
Installation systems
Hail must not stay on top: this is how we shed it
We choose the system according to the crop, the plot and the budget. All three are designed to work with NovaNet® netting.
Best hail shedding
Trampolín system
Two nets joined by a continuous zigzag elastic form a «V» in the centre of the alley: the hail slides off and drops to the ground, and the alley stays clear for machinery.
How it works
Most economical
Capilla forzada
The netting is laid in an «inverted V», held by a tensioned synthetic cord along the central axis. Less material and faster installation: ideal for medium-sized and large farms.
When to choose it
Folded from the ground
Winterfix
Open and close the netting from the ground with a pole, with no platforms or ladders. Compatible with Trampolín and Capilla: from 12 down to 9 hours per hectare for each operation.

Who we are
Pioneers of anti-hail netting in Spain
In 2001, when anti-hail netting was still a rarity in the field, we started installing it in fruit orchards in Lleida and Aragon. Today we are a technical team with offices in Figueres and Vila-Sana, we manufacture our own netting and we work in five countries.
Technical expertise
We analyse each project to propose the most efficient solution.
International experience
More than 5,000 hectares protected in different countries.
Our own materials
NovaNet® netting and the best structural suppliers.
On the ground
We advise you at every step and, if you need it, we install it ourselves.

Frequently asked questions
Before installing, this is what we are asked most
If your case is not covered here, call us or write to us: we will answer with technical judgement.
How long does anti-hail netting last?
With correct installation and proper maintenance, our NovaNet® anti-hail netting has an estimated service life of 10 to 15 years. It depends on the colour of the netting, the orientation of the farm and the local climate. How to extend its service life.
How much does it cost to install anti-hail netting?
It depends on the area, the planting layout, the system (Trampolín, Capilla forzada…), the type of post and the netting model. That is why we do not give generic rates: we study the plot and send you a detailed, no-obligation quote. Which factors affect the price.
Which installation system suits me best?
The Trampolín system offers the best hail shedding and leaves the alley clear; Capilla forzada is the most economical to install. Both are compatible with Winterfix folding. Full comparison.
Do you work outside Spain?
Yes. We have carried out installations in France, Portugal, Morocco and Mexico, as well as throughout Spain. Tell us where your farm is.
Do you only sell material or do you also install?
Both. We can supply the material (netting, posts, cable, anchors…) or take care of the complete project with our installation team.
Are there grants for installing anti-hail netting?
In Catalonia, anti-hail netting installations may be eligible under the Pla de Millora d'Explotacions Agràries. We advise you on the paperwork and how to justify the improvement. More information.
Shall we talk about your farm?
Tell us what you grow, where your plot is and what concerns you. We will propose the solution and a detailed, no-obligation quote.
