Tubular vs Flat Packaging Net: Choosing a Format
Tubular net is an open mesh tube that can surround a product or be closed into a pack. Flat net is supplied as a sheet or web for wrapping or integration into another pack. Check the actual construction rather than the name alone.
Start with the pack shape

Compare closure and equipment
A tubular roll needs suitable expansion, winding and closure settings. A flat web may need a seam or supporting packaging. Provide your equipment details and trial the complete pack before bulk approval.
Specify dimensions clearly
State whether width means lay-flat tube width, flat web width or expanded diameter. Include mesh opening, linear or area weight, roll length and tolerances. Do not substitute one width measurement for another.
Next steps
Request a sample and written quotation or compare the product range. For dimensions and load guidance, use the indicative selection guide; its presets are not engineering calculations.
