Pacific Netting Products

What Pacific Netting Products does

Pacific Netting Products (PNP) is a privately held specialty industrial manufacturer, founded in 1997 and headquartered in Kingston, Washington, that designs and produces custom HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) floating structures and high-performance netting solutions for waterway infrastructure. The company's core product lines are the patented MultiFunction Boom™ floating barrier system (U.S. Patent No. 29,610,480), the SafeGuard Boom series for high-flow and heavy-load conditions, Fast Water Series Public Safety Barriers, and Dyneema® fiber-based netting. Manufacturing is performed at a single vertically integrated Kingston, WA facility using proprietary HDPE co-extrusion processes that produce watertight, corrosion-resistant, UV-stable products rated for up to 50-year service life and temperatures down to -140°F.

The company primarily serves electric utilities, hydroelectric operators, federal and state government agencies (notably the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation), irrigation districts, and nuclear power facilities — providing fish exclusion and passage systems, debris booms, public safety barriers, and water intake protection. Named enterprise customers include Ontario Power Generation, Duke Energy, Consumers Energy, Puget Sound Energy, National Grid, and the Bureau of Reclamation; secondary verticals include commercial aquaculture, ports and marinas, sports/recreation venues, and entertainment (e.g., Universal Studios Hollywood). Revenue is generated one-time per project through custom-engineered, quote-based contracts that include design, fabrication, and often installation, with multi-year contract cadence typical.

Core offering

Pacific Netting Products designs, manufactures, and installs custom HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) floating structures and netting solutions for waterway safety, fish passage, debris management, and environmental protection applications. Core products include the patented MultiFunction Boom™ floating barrier, SafeGuard Booms, Dyneema® fiber netting, and Fast Water Series Public Safety Barriers, all custom-engineered to site-specific requirements and manufactured at the Kingston, WA facility.

Product overview

Pacific Netting Products (PNP) is an industry leader in the design and manufacture of HDPE floating structures and netting solutions, founded in 1997. The company offers a diverse product portfolio centered around two main product lines: HDPE Floating Structures (including the MultiFunction Boom™ and SafeGuard Booms series) and Netting Products (including Dyneema® Fiber Netting). The MultiFunction Boom™ serves as a modular, versatile floating barrier solution for fish passage, debris control, ice management, site security, and safety applications. The SafeGuard Booms series provides reinforced barriers for high-energy, high-load environments. Supporting products include the Fast Water Series Public Safety Barriers for fast water conditions, Colored Co-Extrusion HDPE Pipes for high-visibility applications, and accessory modules such as debris skirts, splash guards, and boat gates. These products serve diverse applications across fish passage, debris and environmental management, ports and marinas, public safety, aquaculture, sports and recreation, and game bird/animal protection.

Products and services

• MultiFunction Boom™ Durable, low-maintenance floating barrier solution engineered for long-term performance and versatility, built for a 50-year service life with modular design, watertight construction, corrosion-resistant properties, and customizable diameter and wall thickness options. Functions as a structural load-bearing member without wires, chains, or cables across fish passage, debris control, ice management, site security, and safety applications.
• SafeGuard Booms High-strength HDPE floating barriers reinforced by external steel frames, designed for high flow and heavy load conditions. Features up to 50-year service life with working load capacities from 50 to 500 kips, constructed from HDPE PE4710 material with closed-cell expanded polystyrene foam filling.
• Dyneema® Fiber Netting High-performance protective netting using ultra-strong Dyneema fiber (HMPE — ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene), offering the same strength as equivalent-sized steel wire rope at one-seventh the weight with excellent UV, abrasion, and fatigue resistance. Light enough to float with low adhesion for zebra mussels and biological growth.
• Fast Water Series Public Safety Barriers Low-maintenance, all-season public safety barriers designed for both high- and low-flow conditions. Features up to 50-year service life, watertight construction, corrosion-free and rot-resistant HDPE, UV stability, and extreme temperature resistance down to -140°F.
• HDPE Floating Structures Custom-extruded HDPE PE4710 floating structures designed for applications including dam operations, public safety, protected fisheries, water quality, surface water withdrawal, aquaculture, harbors, and marinas.
• Netting Products Custom netting solutions for industrial, commercial, recreational, and residential uses, including guidance netting, barrier netting, aquaculture netting, sports nets, and aviary nets.
• Colored Co-Extrusion HDPE Pipe High-visibility colored HDPE pipes and booms designed for waterway safety applications, providing clear visual markers for restricted areas, navigation pathways, and demarcation zones.

Direct peers

• Elastec: American manufacturer of environmental containment and oil spill response equipment, including HDPE and modular floating booms. Closely comparable to PNP in product architecture (floating barriers) and customer profile (utilities, government, industrial water operators).
• Geomembrane Technologies Inc. Designs and fabricates HDPE and geomembrane containment systems for water treatment, mining, and environmental applications. Comparable to PNP in core HDPE fabrication competency and project-based sales to industrial and municipal water clients.
• Containment Solutions Inc. Manufacturer of fiberglass and HDPE underground storage tanks and water infrastructure products for utilities, industrial, and government customers. Comparable to PNP in custom plastic fabrication, project-based sales motion, and focus on water/wastewater infrastructure buyers.
• AquaDam: Manufacturer of water-inflated cofferdams and portable water control structures used at dams, construction sites, and environmental remediation projects. Directly comparable in targeting the same water-infrastructure buyer and use cases (dewatering, containment, dam work) as PNP's floating HDPE barriers.
• Normandeau Associates: Environmental and biological consulting firm that supplies fish passage, fish protection, and waterway infrastructure solutions to utilities and agencies. Comparable to PNP in fish passage and exclusion expertise and in serving the same hydroelectric and regulatory-driven buyer base.

Broad incumbents

• Akva Group: Global aquaculture equipment supplier offering net pens, feeding systems, and fish farming infrastructure. Comparable to PNP's aquaculture segment, but with a broader product portfolio, larger scale, and international footprint that PNP does not yet match.
• Innovasea: Provider of aquaculture technology and fish tracking solutions, including net pen systems and fish husbandry infrastructure. Overlaps with PNP's aquaculture netting and floating structure offerings but addresses the same buyer from a technology/biometrics-led platform.
• Clean Harbors: Large North American environmental and industrial services company with capabilities in spill containment, waterway protection, and industrial cleaning. Comparable in end markets served (utilities, government, industrial water operators) but at far larger scale and with a services-led rather than product-led model.
• Tetra Tech: Global engineering and consulting firm specializing in water, environment, and sustainable infrastructure, including dam safety, fish passage, and hydropower projects. Comparable to PNP in addressing hydroelectric and dam-safety buyers, but as a consulting/design firm rather than a manufacturer of HDPE structures.
• AECOM: Multinational infrastructure consulting firm with major water, dam, and environmental practices that frequently specify barriers and fish passage systems. Comparable to PNP in serving the same regulated utility and government end markets, but as a design/owner-representative rather than product supplier.
