Our 50m-long rolls of purple debris netting are typically used for safety and containment purposes around scaffolding and construction sites. Each roll of purple netting is made from a durable, tear-resistant knitted polyethylene material. The purple colour is intended to make it stand out to workers and the public.
Available in 2m and 3m widths, this netting can be installed on scaffolds to serve as a barrier, helping to prevent falling debris and protecting people and property during construction or demolition projects. However, it has many other uses, including in gardens and allotments, as well as for privacy screening on Heras fencing.

Our purple debris netting forms part of our full debris netting range and is often combined with Monarflex scaffold sheeting for complete site enclosure or paired with our rubbish chute systems for safe, efficient debris removal on scaffolding projects.
Frequently asked questions
What is the primary purpose of purple debris netting?
Purple netting is generally used to contain loose debris and tools on construction or demolition sites, preventing them from falling and causing injuries to people or damage to property. Its colour also makes it stand out.
What is the purple debris netting made of?
The purple netting is made of high-density, UV-protected polyethylene (HDPE), which is durable, tear-resistant, and weatherproof.
How is the purple netting attached to scaffolding tubes or fencing?
This netting is typically attached to scaffolding, fences, or similar structures with cable ties or bungee cords. Simply wrap the netting around the perimeter of the scaffold or fencing and secure it with the cable ties through the reinforced buttonholes for a snug fit. You should regularly check the netting after installation, especially after high winds have passed.
Can purple debris netting be reused?
Purple netting can be reused if it’s still in good condition; however, it is essential to inspect it for tears, fraying, or damage before reuse to ensure its effectiveness.
Is the purple debris netting fire-retardant?
No, most standard debris netting, including the purple variety, is not flame-retardant. For projects with fire hazards, such as welding or grinding, use only netting that is treated and certified to safety standards, such as NFPA 701 or BS 5867.
How long will purple scaffold netting last when exposed to the outdoors?
The longevity of debris netting primarily depends on UV stabilisation. HDPE netting with UV inhibitors is resistant to sun exposure and generally remains functional for several years. However, longevity can be reduced by harsh weather conditions, excessive loads, or improper installation.
What are the dimensions of the purple scaffold netting?
The purple netting is available in two roll sizes: 2 meters by 50 meters and 3 meters by 50 meters.
How does purple netting handle wind?
The purple debris netting features a porous knitted mesh that allows air to pass through, reducing wind load on scaffolding and helping to maintain stability in strong winds.
Can purple debris netting be used for other purposes?
Yes, the purple netting can also be used as a privacy screen, windbreak, or to provide shade on worksites.
