Types of Screening

In this post, we are going to look at a few different types screening that are available in natural materials.
The natural materials that are used, vary considerably, from rigid timber slats, in anything from pine to exotic hardwoods, but pine is one of the more popular.
Other softer materials, are used as a weave, or fastened with wire to maintain their shape. These screens are generally supplied in a roll of a predetermined height & length, the most common being 1.5M-2M High, & 2M-3M in length.

Some material used for screening:


Woven Bamboo & Mozo Bamboo Framed Screens


Brushwood & Peeled Reed


Pine Bark & Split Bamboo



Pine Timber Trellis Diamond & Square 32 & 96mm apetures (Formal)

All of these screens, should be protected from rot & insect attack, & should last for a number of years outdoors.
We are opposed to using CCA for social & environmental reasons. Click HERE for more information.

All of these screens, need to be mounted into either a frame, as is the case with most of the more rigid materials, like timber & the larger bamboo pieces, while the softer more flexible screens, can be mounted directly onto a fence or a rough wooden screen (if the back is not visible)
