FAQs

What are the primary applications for Superscreen 239?
The 239 is the industry favourite for insect screening on tents, caravan annexes, camper-trailer enclosures, and any outdoor application where a durable mesh barrier is required.

How does the 239 compare to lighter screening fabrics like the 254?
It represents a major step up in durability. Weighing 170 gsm with a tensile strength of 1,306 N/50mm in both directions, the 239 provides a 54% increase in tensile performance over lighter options—making it ideal for high-tension or high-wind setups.

Will this mesh reduce airflow or make an enclosure feel too dark?
Not at all. With 40% light transmission and a 60% shade factor, it strikes a practical, comfortable balance. It allows plenty of cooling breeze and natural light to pass through while still providing meaningful shade and a clear visual barrier.

How does Superscreen 239 hold up against mould and outdoor weather?
It is engineered specifically for Australian conditions, featuring a fungal resistance treatment and inherent UV stability. Whether it is used in the salt-laden air of a coastal campsite, the wet season humidity of the tropical north, or the heat of an outback installation, it withstands the elements.

What colour options are available for this range?
The 239 offers the broadest colour selection in the Superscreen mesh lineup, available in Black and Grey to easily match different manufacturing or branding styles.
