What is PVC coated chainlink?

PVC coated chainlink is galvanized wire mesh with an additional layer of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coating over the galvanized wire. This double protection makes it more resistant to rust, corrosion, and UV damage compared to standard galvanized chainlink.

What colors does PVC coated chainlink come in?

PVC coated chainlink is available in green, black, and other colors. Green is most popular in Kenya as it blends with gardens and landscaping. Black is preferred for a more formal appearance.

Is PVC coated chainlink more durable than plain galvanized chainlink?

Yes. The PVC layer adds an extra barrier against moisture, chemicals, and UV rays, extending the fencing lifespan — particularly in coastal areas like Mombasa and Malindi where salt air accelerates corrosion.

Where is PVC coated chainlink commonly used in Kenya?

PVC coated chainlink is popular for schools, sports facilities, gardens, swimming pool perimeters, hotels, and residential estates where both appearance and durability are important.

Does PVC coated chainlink rust?

The galvanized steel core provides rust resistance and the PVC coating adds further protection. As long as the PVC coating remains intact, the wire beneath is well protected from rust.

How long does PVC coated chainlink last?

PVC coated chainlink typically lasts 20 to 30 years when properly installed and maintained. Avoid damaging the coating during installation as exposed steel at cut ends can eventually rust.

Can PVC coated chainlink be used near the coast in Kenya?

Yes. PVC coated chainlink is the recommended choice for coastal areas in Kenya such as Mombasa, Malindi, Kilifi, and Lamu where salt air and humidity accelerate rusting of standard galvanized wire.

What is the difference between PVC coated and galvanized chainlink?

Galvanized chainlink has a zinc coating for rust protection. PVC coated chainlink has the same galvanized base plus an additional colored plastic layer. PVC coated offers better corrosion resistance and color options but costs more.

What is the price of PVC coated chainlink in Kenya?

PVC coated chainlink is priced higher than standard galvanized chainlink due to the additional coating process. Prices vary based on height, color, and roll length. Contact Shujaa Steel for current pricing.
