Teijin and Kinoshita Fishing Net Develop World’s First Fishing Net Made with UHMWPE Film
Nets for skipjack, tuna, horse mackerel
MX-4 is especially suitable for purse-seine nets for skipjack, tuna, horse mackerel and mackerel, which are used in harsh environments where durability and fast drainage arecrucial.
MX-4 does not shrink easily
MX-4 does not shrink easily and is resistant to breakage due to abrasion evenafter hundreds of castings, so it can be used safely for long periods.
It also improveswork efficiency and cost efficiency by reducing needs for net reconditioning and tailoring.
In addition, it reduces the frequency of net disposal and is more marine friendly.
Making it easier to work
Furthermore, when MX-4 is pulled up from the sea, it immediately sheds water andbecomes lighter, making it easier to work.
It also stays clean.Various types of fishing nets are used commercially depending on the fishing method,fish species and marine environment.
In the case of purse-seine net fishing, where netscan become heavily loaded, over time the nets can shrink considerably, lose shape,become less efficient in enclosing fish, and require frequent repair or replacement.
