This cherry tree protection netting is a specialist agrotextile designed to safeguard trees from harsh UK weather during vulnerable blossom and fruiting phases. Developed in partnership with leading cherry growers and tested over eight years, this product is now a benchmark in commercial tree protection netting solutions.
The fabric is transparent and lightweight with a shade factor under 20%, making it ideal for minimising weather impact while maintaining natural light and airflow. Suspended on a post and wire frame, it can be quickly drawn for protection and retracted when not in use.
- Weather-resistant design - Shields crops from wind, hail and frost without compromising tree ventilation.
- Low shade factor material - Clear fabric maintains light penetration to maximise fruit growth and colour.
- Tested with UK growers - Developed over years of trials to ensure optimal crop performance and yield.
- UV stabilised - 400kLy resistance ensures durability across growing seasons in exposed environments.
- Optional wind protection accessories - Shock cords, stainless clips and eyelets available for high wind sites.
Ideal for both commercial cherry growers and specialist orchards, this tree protection netting creates a stable microclimate that reduces fruit splitting and improves sugar content by enabling later, fuller ripening. Side cover options offer additional climate control to prevent early harvesting due to cracking.
HERMEQ stock a wide range of woven and biodegradable weed control membranes, and support structures such as anti bird netting, windbreak netting, and extruded mesh netting for complete crop protection solutions.

This agrotextile netting is engineered to reduce crop loss and increase revenue per hectare by enabling growers to delay picking until full fruit maturity. The result is larger cherries with better colouration and significantly higher sugar content—an advantage in today’s competitive fruit markets.
- Material: UV-stabilised clear mesh
- Shade Factor: Less than 20%
- UV Protection: 400kLy rating
- Tensile Strength: md 16kN, cd 16kN
- Accessories: Optional bungy cord, stainless clips, and tie eyelets

This system is a passive, durable solution suitable for all UK regions where wind, rain or temperature fluctuations threaten blossom, fruit set or ripening. By protecting cherries through the full crop cycle, growers avoid splitting while gaining additional weight and value per fruit unit.
Optional accessories are available as spares or replacements for high-wind applications, ensuring the cover can flex under load without tearing. This enables long-term performance with reduced risk of fabric damage and minimal seasonal setup costs.
