Galebreaker Materials

Galebreaker mesh has been proven through independent tests to provide better ventilation and weather protection than traditional cladding. For over 20 years, Galebreaker have manufactured weather protection and ventilation systems which are used extensively worldwide. The immensely strong range of Galebreaker meshes are available as clip-on screens, rolling/folding ventilation systems and door systems. Galebreaker systems are suitable for livestock and general purpose buildings including grain and feed stores which require quality assurance approval.

An essential element of healthy housed livestock is the availability of ‘quality ventilated air’. Galebreaker’s ability to transmit light as well as its ventilation properties provides the optimum light, dry, draught free environment.
