Makes a plastic fencing from 100 percent
postconsumer HDPE, from curbside collection
programs. Thin strips of plastic are extruded and
laid together to form a diagonal, 1-inch diamond
pattern. The fencing is sold in 50-foot or lOO-
foot rolls. Also used as a safety fence, the
product is available in safety orange or in other
custom colors, if the order placed is large
enough to warrant a separate manufacturing run.
