Conveyor Netting
Factory Supply provides custom conveyor netting systems designed to meet the unique operational needs of each facility. With aerial conveyor safety becoming an increasing concern across North America, companies are seeking solutions that maintain safety without sacrificing efficiency or productivity.
Common challenges with overhead conveyor systems include:
- Injuries or fatalities from falling objects (products or conveyor components)
- Product loss or damage due to falls
- Equipment damage caused by dropped materials
- Rising insurance premiums
Our engineered conveyor netting systems are built to address these concerns directly. Using high-strength, fire-resistant 1” mesh netting panels combined with wire rope, these systems create a dependable soft catch solution that prevents falling objects from causing harm or damage.
Conveyor-related injuries and product loss cost businesses millions each year. Installing a conveyor netting system helps safeguard employees, protect products, and reduce unnecessary operational costs. Our netting experts can provide a fast, accurate quote tailored to your facility’s fall protection and safety requirements.
Our netting panels are treated to meet NFPA 701 standards for fire-retardancy and have been tested and rated in accordance with ANSI A10.11 and OSHA safety standards. This includes the complete system with all of the hardware installed onto a racking system and tests made to simulate a real-case product falls.
To ensure compliance with regulations, we advise following safety net installation standards. This includes obtaining certification from qualified installers or engineers, conducting testing procedures, maintaining thorough records, and providing worker training.
A comprehensive fall protection plan must consider work nature, site or facility conditions, load capacity, and manufacturer specifications. Proper installation, maintenance, and regular inspection are critical for compliance and effectiveness.
Accumulated debris can compromise the functionality of safety nets and create hazards. Work operations should pause promptly to remove debris or any fallen objects to maintain optimal net performance.

Each conveyor netting system is custom-tailored to your facility’s operational layout and installed to avoid interference with equipment or workflow. Every system is engineered and rated specifically for your product loads, ensuring long-term safety and dependable performance.
Floor Mounted Conveyor Netting Systems
One common type of industrial conveyor used in warehouses is the floor-mounted system. From a safety standpoint, the primary concern is products falling from the conveyor and striking workers below, followed by the risk of product damage or loss from drops.
Factory Supply’s Conveyor Netting Systems are designed to prevent both issues. Each system is custom-engineered to your facility’s operational requirements, installed to avoid interference with workflow or equipment, and rated for your specific product capacity to ensure lasting protection and performance

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What if space is an issue in my facility?
For storage racks, we offer different lengths of offset brackets to allow our systems to fit in the tightest of spaces. Our extension brackets are also available from 1 ft up to 6 ft in height to add additional storage space to the top of racks.
What if I need coverage above my existing rack frame?
We offer rack extensions that incorporate our offset bracket so that you can add height to your rack frames and protect your highest pallets.
Is there an advantage to netting over wire mesh?
Our netting is designed to catch any fallen product or pallet without any damage to your racking. Wire mesh is typically connected directly to your racks and doesn’t have flexibility. Over time, as equipment or products hit against the wire, it can get damaged and put extra strain on your racking.
Is this something I could install on my own?
Yes, all of our systems include a user manual, custom drawing, and detailed installation instructions. If needed, we offer installation services.
What if I need protection on the side of my rack, or underneath the bays?
We offer complete rack netting systems to protect the back and sides of your rack, as well as horizontal netting to protect tunnel bays or pic modules.
When would I need a safety netting system?
Netting is used anytime a fall or falling object hazard may exist. It is used on racks to protect against falling objects, as well as along walkways and isles to protect workers. These systems are often used in the flu space between racks to protect the product itself from falling and being damaged. Safety netting has numerous applications depending on the facility, including barrier protection from stacked storage, upper-level mezzanine protection, and even truck netting fall protection. There are applications in every corner of your facility.
What do I need to provide to get a quote?
Get in touch with our netting sales reps, and they can provide you with a Quote Request Form that is easy to fill out. The form asks for information such as the width of your bays, the height of your rack frames, and the weight of the pallets you are looking to protect.
Can the netting system be customized to fit specific rack dimensions?
Yes, our netting systems are highly customizable to fit your specific dimensions and applications of your facility space. We offer tailored solutions to ensure optimal fit and protection.
What material is the netting made of, and is it durable?
Our netting is typically made of high-strength polyethylene or nylon material, ensuring durability and longevity. It’s designed to withstand object impact and provide reliable fall protection depending on the application. Our nets range in weight capacity depending on your application needs.
Is the netting compliant with safety regulations and standards?
Yes, our netting panels are treated to meet NFPA 701 standards for fire-retardancy and have been tested and rated in accordance with ANSI A10.11 and OSHA safety standards. This includes the complete system with all of the hardware installed onto a racking system and tests made to simulate a real-case product falls.
How does the installation process work?
Yes, our netting systems are designed and tested to meet or exceed relevant safety regulations and standards, such as OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) requirements.
