McVeigh Parker Triple X Customer Testimonial #2


The National Trust needed to replace their deteriorating original metal fence, which had stood for over 100 years. Aesthetic appearance, time and value for money were all considerations. The terrain was extremely challenging. The project required a product that would not only stand up to stock pressure but would be easier to transport and erect on site. Triple X fencing system was chosen as it solved all these problems.

Intermediate posts: 1.8m 11 clip Clipex Standard posts
Intermediate post centres: 4m centres for woodland perimeter and 3m for dividing paddocks
Beefy Intermediates: Used at slight changes in direction
Strainer Type: Triple X all steel diagonal strainer
Wire Type: Xfence premium long-life wire netting, XHT8-80-15, lamb friendly netting, 2.0mm high tensile heavily galvanised barbed wire
Tools Used: Hand-held petrol driver, cutters

Clingseal Silage Sheets


All sheets are manufactured using new techniques and improved raw polymer granules. This process is known for high strength, puncture resistance and excellent seal characteristics. The innovative combination of Visqueen Agri-S and Visqueen Clingseal - a thin, flexible, low permeability sheet helps to create the right anaerobic conditions for fast, efficient fermentation. In doing so it prevents pockets of trapped air forming to significantly reduce aerobic spoilage on the top and shoulders.
