ADVANTAGES OF HIPPO SAFETY FENCING

​

VISIBILITY

HSF is very visible for horses. Grey has good visibility in green areas.

​

QUICK INSTALLATION

HSF can be installed in a very short time. The tape should be supported at 3-metre lengths between posts. Manufactured & supplied in 100m lengths, the strapping is easy to handle and use with easy tensioning with the ratchet.


NO MAINTENANCE

HSF tape is made of UV resistant materials and requires no maintenance. If the tape should be broken, it can be re-connected with 2 screws and tensioned again with the ratchet. When a tape has to be replaced, you can quickly insert a new tape into the existing holders. Also, when it snows, the tape will not sag!

​

SAFETY

The strapping breaks before injuries can occur. It will break when a horse gallops into the fence. The fence is easily repaired. Breaking strength is approx 300kg. 


FLEXIBILITY

The smoothness and flexibility of the tape prevent injuries such as cuts, splinters or more severe wounds.


AESTHETIC

HSF looks like a normal wooden fence. Well priced it is also more cost effective by comparison with post and rail system.
