What is a Plastic Snow Fence?

Plastic snow fences, often called poly snow fences, are a must-have for dealing with winter snow management. They play a key role in controlling snowdrifts and keeping areas safer during those heavy snowfall months. Think of them as your first line of defense against snow piling up in all the wrong places. Designed to handle tough winter conditions, these fences work by redirecting wind and encouraging snow to settle where you want it. This simple yet effective solution helps keep roads clear, pathways accessible, and properties safe from the hazards of unchecked snow buildup.

What are Plastic Snow Fences Used For?

Plastic snow fences are surprisingly versatile and help tackle a wide range of winter problems. While their main job is to control snow accumulation, they do so much more than just that. By slowing down wind and managing where snow ends up, these fences make a big difference in keeping essential spaces clear and usable. Whether you're dealing with snow around homes, businesses, or farmland, these fences offer a practical way to make winter a little easier and a lot safer.

• Wind Reduction: A plastic snow fence is great at slowing wind down. As the wind moves through the mesh openings, it loses speed, which causes snow to settle downwind of the fence. This controlled accumulation helps prevent those annoying and potentially dangerous snowdrifts from forming in places you need clear. Setting up a snow fence in the right spot can cut down on how often you need to shovel, plow, or clear snow.
• Enhanced Visibility: Brightly colored fences, like the orange or black ones from Tenax, are easy to spot even in snowy or low-light conditions. This makes them great for guiding traffic or marking boundaries, reducing accidents and keeping everyone safer, especially in areas where snowstorms can reduce visibility.
• Property Protection: These fences help protect buildings, parking lots, roads, and other key areas from getting buried under snow. By directing snow to less critical spots, they keep high-use areas clear and reduce the time and effort needed for snow removal. Whether it's an airport, school, or your driveway, snow fences are a lifesaver for keeping snow where it belongs.
• Environmental Benefits: Managing snow naturally with fences means less reliance on salt, de-icers, or other chemicals that can harm the environment. Plus, fewer plowing trips mean less fuel burned, making snow fences an eco-friendly choice for snow control.
• Protection for Livestock and Crops: On farms, snow fences can create windbreaks that shield animals and crops from harsh weather. By reducing snow and wind exposure, they help maintain safer and more stable conditions for farm operations during winter.
