When to use it
Use it when
Your dimensions, mesh or colour do not match a standard product and you want netting specified from combinations the factory actually documents.
Do not use it when
You need a finished net with band, cable or fittings ready to hang: those are separate programmes, so ask for the finished product instead of raw netting.
Common buying mistake. Ordering by the metre without stating the finished panel dimensions and edge finish. Cutting and sewing are part of the service; a drawing with dimensions avoids paying twice for rework.
Specify your panel range
For each product reference, list mesh and twine, requested material, finished panel size, edge finish and initial quantity. Add expected repeat quantities or timing if known. Mark anything unknown. Packing, identification, material consistency and commercially viable quantities remain to be confirmed for the written specification. You contract with the factory directly; our independent sourcing and specification service is paid by the buyer.

Specify it from published figures
Nothing on this page is a guess, and neither is anything on the pages below. These are the reference tables and guides that answer the specification questions this family raises most often, each figure attributed to the federation, standard or manufacturer that published it.
- Compare sports netting quotes: free editable matrix Record material, mesh measure, twine, finished dimensions, edges and delivery scope before comparing two suppliers on price.
- Twine gauge chart: every published number, with its source Gauges from #12 to #120 against their published diameters and breaking strengths. The reference for turning a US gauge specification into the millimetre twine the factory documents.
- Mesh size chart by sport, with official ball sizes Official ball diameters from 11 federation rulebooks plus the inches to millimetres conversions, to check a mesh before ordering a full run of it.
- Netting MOQ explained: the three minimums Why a 1 sq m listed minimum and a bulk business are both true, and what actually drives the viable quantity when netting is bought by the metre.
- The RFQ checklist: seven fields, one accurate quote Finished panel dimensions and edge finish are the two fields missing from most by the metre enquiries, and the two that cause rework.

Frequently asked questions
How do I specify netting by the metre?
Four choices: mesh size, twine diameter, colour, and finished panel dimensions. The table above lists the 12 mesh and twine combinations documented at the factory; pick the closest and we confirm it against the sample photos.
How do I know these combinations actually exist?
The table comes from supplier documentation. Available factory photographs show appearance and construction for some references. We request a matching photo for your selected combination where available; a photo alone does not verify material or performance.
Can panels be sewn with reinforced edges?
The supplier's processing includes cutting and sewing. Factory photos show finished edges on several samples. State the edge finish you need and we confirm it in the quote.
What if I need a combination that is not in the table?
The table is what is documented today, not necessarily the full production range. Ask for the combination you need and we put it to the supplier; we only confirm it once the supplier documents it.
Is there a minimum order?
Minimums vary by line: some products are listed from 1 sq m, others from 500 or 1,000 sq m. We state the applicable minimum in the quote rather than a blanket figure.
We reply within 2 business days with questions or a documented quote.
