Greece's agricultural sector faces a unique challenge: the juxtaposition of intense UV radiation and sudden, violent hail storms. The widespread cultivation of high-value grapes and olives requires a robust agricultural net that can prevent physical bruising of fruit while maintaining optimal airflow to prevent fungal growth in humid coastal regions.
Currently, the market in Greece is shifting away from rudimentary coverings toward precision-engineered insect proof mesh. With the rise of invasive pest species and the EU's push for reduced chemical pesticide use, Greek farmers are increasingly relying on physical barriers to protect organic produce.
The demand for high-tensile materials has surged, particularly for steep terrain installations in the Peloponnese and Crete. This has led to a preference for UV-stabilized nylon mesh, which offers the necessary elasticity and strength to withstand the strong "Meltemi" winds of the Aegean Sea.
