Ag-Pole – Steel Netting Poles for Orchard Protection

Purpose-built to support netting in New Zealand orchards

Ag-Pole is an exclusive Ag-Steel product engineered to carry the weight of netting in New Zealand’s harsh and variable orchard environments. Designed as a strong, reliable, organic-friendly alternative to traditional timber poles, Ag-Pole delivers long-term performance while reducing installation time and ground disruption.

Unlike timber poles, Ag-Pole does not require post holes and can be installed close to plants in existing orchards with minimal impact on the root system—making it ideal for retrofitting netting structures without compromising plant health.

Proudly designed and manufactured in New Zealand by Industrial Tube Manufacturing, Ag-Pole is available with two socket options and variable fixing pin lengths to suit different ground conditions.

Why choose Ag-Poles?

No post holes required

Ag-TriPost and Ag-Poles are secured directly on top of the ground using three steel pins, reducing labour, speeding up installation, and avoiding unnecessary soil and root disturbance.
