ISRI 2023 Is Just Around the Corner!

Get ready to learn about all of the latest and greatest opportunities and applications within the Scrap Recycling Industry at ISRI 2023.

Industrial Netting will be in Booth 2024 showcasing our Car-Go-Net plastic safety netting. The netting is used to contain loose parts during over-the-road transport to reduce the risk of those parts falling onto the roadways, putting others at risk.

Eliminate tarp maintenance by utilizing Car-Go-Net disposable netting. Car-Go-Net is available in a wide variety of widths and lengths, with aperture sizes of ¼” or ¾” for use on flatbeds, railroad gondola cars, and in sided, over-the-road trailers. The netting is orange in color for greater visibility so that your drivers are not delayed and ticketed.

ISRI 2023 will be held at the Music City Convention Center in Nashville, Tennessee, from April 17 to 19. Don’t forget to swing by Booth 2024—we would love to have the opportunity to learn more about your hauling needs!

See you there!

The Cicadas have Arrived!

Get Prepared for the largest Cicada Outbreak in 17 Years!

After 17 years of living underground, the Brood X Cicadas are now emerging in 15 states! Be ready to hear bugs singing for 5 to 6 weeks in the states of Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Washington D.C.

It is so important for your trees and shrubs to be protected throughout the emergence. Once the Cicadas emerge they are going to head straight for high ground and away from predators. Unfortunately, this high ground is your trees! Once they reach the trees, male and female Cicadas will mate. After mating, the trillions of female Cicadas move to the smaller branches of trees and lay their eggs within them causing significant damage. Once this process is over the Cicadas fall from the trees and weeks later the baby cicadas hatch and burrow back under the ground for another 17 years. What a process!

This article from the Star Tribune, “Nature at its craziest: Trillions of cicadas about to emerge” outlines what to expect during the largest emergence in 17 years.

How to Protect Trees and Shrubs During the 17-Year Cicada Outbreak this Spring

This spring you can expect the largest Cicada Outbreak in 17 years throughout the months of May through June. This emergence of Brood X, 17-year cicadas leaves young trees vulnerable to damage. Once the ground level reaches 64 degrees F, the Cicadas will emerge searching for trees and shrubs to latch onto and lay their eggs beneath the bark of twigs and branches. The egg laying process has the potential to cause significant damage to young trees to the point that they can die.

Watch this video for installation instructions and to learn how Cicada Control Netting from Industrial Netting can protect your property during the largest outbreak in 17-years.

Product Characteristics of Square and Diamond Mesh

Joint Structure

Although both diamond netting and square netting are extruded, the processes used to produce the products result in quite different product characteristics, which may be important in some applications. Diamond netting is produced with the strands in each direction overlaying each other. The joint structure of the product can be described as a strand over another strand. The overall thickness of the product will essentially be twice the thickness of each strand, although there may be some melding of the strands at the joint. Normally, the strands in each direction are produced uniformly, and the product looks the same from one side of the material as the other. This type of netting is marketed as “bi-planar”, as both sides are structurally the same, the strands forming a plane or channel along the net. Read more ›
