Farm, Field and Livestock Fencing

You've told us how crucial strong fencing is in an agricultural setting. It defines the boundary of your land and keeps your livestock secure. As a keystone of agricultural infrastructure, farm fencing and gateways must be dependable to keep costs low and avoid time spent on repairs. See how the application of Postsaver fencing products could help.

Why Should I Protect My Farm, Field and Livestock Fencing?

Unlike standard fencing, farm, field and livestock fencing covers large areas, so longevity is key if you want to keep costs low. If you install an unprotected run of fencing and have a post fail, chances are there will be more to follow.

The cost of replacing these could be substantial, and even if you decide to do the work yourself, you need to consider your time and machinery costs..

Beyond the cost of livestock fence failure, we have been hearing reports of livestock escaping and farmers losing animals, especially troublesome if any of your land is close to a road.

Ground rot is the number one cause of fence failure in an agricultural setting, but fortunately, Postsaver can help.

What can Postsaver do to protect my fence?

Protecting your fence and gateways starts in the ground. Ground rot is the leading cause of fence failure and can be linked back to three key factors: moisture, fungi and oxygen. The causes of decay exist in the upper six inches of the soil. Deeper in the ground, there is not enough oxygen for the fungi to survive, leaving your post naturally protected.

Postsaver rot protectors are a patented and proven system that prevents ground rot and guarantees your posts for at least 20-years. Our rot protection has been proven by BRE, Europes largest timber testers, and have shown no failures within 20 years of testing.

Postsaver is a guaranteed way to protect your investment and keep your fence posts secure at the ground line, saving you time and hassle. With a size to fit any post, they're the perfect addition to prolong the life of your farm, field or livestock fencing and gateways.

How do They Work?

Postsaver rot protection uses our patented dual-layer barrier system that creates a complete air and watertight seal around the wood's surface. The sleeves are applied using a blowtorch or heat and shrink onto the surface of the post. 

The inner bituminous liner becomes molten and penetrates the surface of the wood. In doing so, it locks in wood preservatives and keeps the three factors needed for decay locked out.

The protector's sealed surface also prevents any capillary action of water rising from the bottom of the post, keeping the timber dry and rot free. Because of our rot protector's tough nature, they are suitable for all installation types, including power-driving.
Why Should I Trust It?
Postsaver rot protectors were first developed over 25-years ago when the company's founder realised his field fencing had rotted after only a few years. Further investigation showed all posts had rotted through at the ground-line, and from there, the idea for the Postsaver rot protection was born.

Our heritage spans over 29-years, and our products have been tried, tested and developed to deal with the issues you face. We fully understand the frustration of fence failure.
