American Nettings

What American Nettings does

American Nettings & Fabric, Inc. is a family-owned manufacturer and direct-to-consumer supplier of agricultural, horticultural, and landscaping nettings and fabrics, headquartered at 2684 Delta Ring Road in Ferndale, Washington. Founded in the early 1980s (with the corporate entity registered as of 1983 and the firm describing 40 years of operation), the company produces knitted and woven products from HDPE, polypropylene, polyethylene, and spun-bonded materials — including Knitted Bird Netting, Heavy Duty Deer Fence, Anti-Hail/Bird Netting, Trellis Netting (USDA Food Grade compliant), Crop Cover, Blue Ribbon Woven Ground Fabric, and the Veggie Booster Mulch co-developed with USDA and Clemson University.

The core technology centers on specialized Raschel warp knitting and woven fabric constructions engineered for UV stabilization, tensile strength, and longevity, with rated lifespans ranging from one season (Shrub Wrap) to 30+ years (Premium Plus REPREVE Recycled Contractor Landscape Fabric, 75% recycled polyester). Product specifications are highly engineered: e.g., 1.97" square HDPE deer fence mesh with 397/432 lbs/ft² tensile strength, vineyard drape netting in 3/4" diamond mesh, and Bug Out insect screen with 80% porosity and 82% light transmission.

American Netters generates revenue through unit-pricing e-commerce sales on americannettings.com and a separate B2B wholesale portal at anfb2b.com, serving a horizontally segmented customer base of field growers, home gardeners, landscapers, orchards, vineyards, greenhouse growers, and flower growers. Pricing spans $2.69 packaged retail SKUs through $1,280+ commercial bulk rolls, with FedEx Ground, US Mail, and freight-truck fulfillment. The company has no disclosed external funding, no AI/ML capabilities, and operates at 1-10 employees, indicating a small privately-held lifestyle business rather than a venture-backed growth company.
