  • Quick Replacement: Promptly restores your shelter after storms or damage.

At Polytex, we are committed to providing superior quality products and. the support doesn’t stop when the cover leaves our factory. Before we recommend anything, we take the time to understand your shelter setup, the conditions on your property and how your operation runs day to day. Fabric type, GSM and tensioning all affect how long a cover lasts and tensioning in particular is something a lot of growers get caught out on. We make sure you know what correct tension looks like before the cover goes on.

If your existing cover has failed, we’ll help you work out what went wrong. Sometimes it may have been the fabric choice or how it was installed. Either way, a straight swap doesn’t always solve the problem. We take the time to understand the situation first and make sure the replacement is fit for the issue you are facing.

Our experience shows up in the practical advice we give and what we have seen work on the farm. With 30+ years of manufacturing experience, Polytex has been supplying the Australian piggery industry for decades and some of our Eco Shelter covers from over 25 years ago are still performing today.
