In Nigeria, the demand for plastic poultry mesh has surged due to the rapid expansion of commercial poultry farming in states like Oyo and Ogun. However, the high humidity and saline air in coastal regions like Lagos accelerate the oxidation of standard steel, making traditional fencing insufficient.
Local farmers frequently struggle with "rust-through" issues, where low-grade galvanization fails within two seasons. This has created a critical market shift toward coated chicken wire fence, which offers an essential barrier against the corrosive tropical atmosphere.
Furthermore, the economic drive toward food security in Nigeria is pushing the industry away from makeshift enclosures toward standardized galvanized hexagonal wire netting, ensuring long-term asset protection and livestock safety.
