What is PVC Coated Chicken wire?

PVC coated chicken wire, also known as plastic coated hexagonal wire mesh, is made from galvanized steel wire woven into a hexagonal pattern and then coated with a layer of PVC. This coating provides additional protection against rust, sunlight, and chemical corrosion, making it ideal for outdoor and harsh environments.

 

Unlike traditional galvanized chicken wire (which will rust over time), PVC coated chicken wire lasts longer, is more flexible, and looks better.

Key Features and Benefits

1. Weather Resistant: UV-stabilized PVC prevents fading and cracking in sunlight.

2. Corrosion Resistant: Ideal for humid, coastal, or rainy climates.

3. Flexibility: Easy to bend and install around curves.

4. Lifespan: Long lifespan of 10-20 years, much longer than regular galvanized wire.

5. Aesthetics: Available in a variety of colors to blend in with surroundings.

6. Safe for Animals: No sharp parts and smooth coating prevent injuries to poultry and pets.

Common Uses and Applications

Agriculture and farming

Poultry Fencing, chicken coops, bird cages, garden protection, prevent rabbits and other rodents from entering. Prevent escape.

Plant protection

Build orchard bird-proof nets, vegetable garden anti-gnawing barriers, vineyard and orchard supports, trellis plants.

Agricultural facility reinforcement

Greenhouse vent protection, fish pond bird-proof fence, resistant to moisture corrosion, better stability than ordinary wire mesh.

Temporary isolation and construction

Construction sites, activity areas, fast enclosure, light, and easy to install,for  short-term use to prevent rain erosion.

Construction and industry

Gabions, erosion control, retaining walls, plaster, plaster reinforcement, and temporary safety barriers.

Home and DIY projects

Pet fences, rabbit cages, dog houses, decorative fences, garden borders, trellises, crafts and artworks, sculptures, mesh decorations.

Popular Colors of PVC Coated Wire Fence

While green is the most common color (and blends in perfectly with gardens and farms), other popular choices include:

1) Forest green: Most popular, fresh feel.

2) Black: Creates a sleek, industrial look.

3) Brown: Natural wood look, rustic feel.

4) White: Clean and simple for decorative fences.

5) Red/blue: Used for visibility in construction areas.

Types of PVC Coated Chicken wire

A. Classification by wire gauge (thickness)

1) 20–22 SWG: 0.9–0.7mm, light fencing, garden protection.

2) 18–19 SWG: 1.2–1.0mm, poultry fencing, small animal fencing.

3) 16–17 SWG: 1.6–1.4mm, heavy fencing, building barriers.

 

B. Classification by mesh size (hole size)

1) 1/2 inch: 12.7 mm, small bird cages, garden protection.

2) 1 inch: 25.4 mm, chicken coops, rabbit enclosures.

3) 2 inch: 50.8 mm, larger animal enclosures, building reinforcement.

 

Manufacturing process

Prepare the Materials

1) Raw materials: low carbon steel wire, electro-galvanized steel wire (thin coating, cheaper), hot dip galvanized steel wire (thicker zinc layer, more durable).

2) PVC compound: mixture of PVC resin, plasticizer, stabilizer, pigment, flame retardant, etc.

 

Production steps

Die drawn steel wire → cleaning → galvanizing (cold/hot galvanizing) → automatic weaving machine weaving hexagonal wire mesh → cleaning, phosphating → PVC coating (extrusion coating, dip coating) → high temperature oven 180°C–220°C curing → water or air cooling → quality testing → packaging.

PVC Coated chicken wire Price

Prices vary depending on wire thickness, coating quality, mesh size, and order quantity. They are roughly as follows:

 

1) 1/2″ mesh: 20Gauge wire, $25-$50, 50-foot roll.

2) 1″ mesh: 18Gauge, $40-$80, 50-foot roll.

3) 2″ mesh: 16Gauge, $60-$120, 50-foot roll.

Quality Control Checks

1. Thickness inspection: micrometer measurement.

2. Adhesion test: peeling resistance.

3. Salt spray test: corrosion resistance.

4. UV exposure test: color fastness.

5. Tensile strength test: wire durability.

6. Others: coil diameter or coil weight or coil length measurement.
