fencing, mesh-making & netting

New and established fencing from New Zealand

South Fence Machinery Ltd manufactures three types of rural fencing machines – fixed knot, stiff stay and hinge joint. All three types have the option of single and dual fence production. Fixed knot fence is well established and its market share is growing rapidly in all areas where a premium fence is required. South Fence Machinery’s fixed knot machines produce fences with up to 26 line wires and up to 3m high.

Stiff stay fence is relatively new to the market but the machine’s speed and flexibility are said to make it an attractive option for new manufacturers establishing themselves in the market, as well as for established manufacturers, looking to offer a full range of fence types. Stiff stay machines can manufacture fences with up to 25 line wires and 2.5m high. Hinge joint fence is still the cheapest option and maintains the largest market share of the three fence types. Hinge joint machines can manufacture fences with up to 28 lines wires and 2.5m high.

South Fence also manufactures a barbed staple machine and a coiler machine. South Fence Machinery – New Zealand Fax : +64 3 349 5022 Email : enquiries@southfence.co.nz
