Sapphire Netting

Though some manufacturers claim high twine breaking strength as a critical parameter in assessing the quality of a net, we believe that the ultimate test of nets is in optimizing knot breaking strength and twine abrasion as the nets fail in knots and by abrasion and not by straight breaking of twine.
Sapphire nettings deliver supreme “Knot Breaking Length”, combining two key attributes of “Knot Breaking Strength” and “Twine Runnage”. Net markers and skippers can now either downsize the twine size and achieve economy in the fuel consumption or utilize the high strength for more demanding applications.
Sapphire netting is designed for reducing the towing resistance, which in turn reduces the fuel consumption and increase the efficiency.
