Belgium's diverse landscape, from the Flemish plains to the Ardennes, creates a varied demand for fencing. The high humidity and frequent precipitation of the region make corrosion a primary concern, driving the demand for galvanized hexagonal wire netting which provides the essential zinc layer to prevent premature rust.
In the intensive poultry and livestock sectors across East Flanders and Wallonia, there is a significant shift toward plastic poultry mesh. This transition is fueled by stricter animal welfare regulations in the EU, which necessitate softer, non-abrasive materials that prevent skin injuries to livestock while maintaining structural integrity.
Furthermore, the Belgian urban gardening and boutique agriculture trend has increased the consumption of plastic coated chicken wire. This product is preferred not only for its enhanced longevity in damp soil but also for its aesthetic integration into meticulously landscaped Belgian residential properties.
