UK manufacturer Hampton Steel Ltd produces an extensive range of steel wire fencing and accessories for the UK and overseasmarkets at their Northamptonshire based plant. With years of experience producing quality fencing for some of the top professionals including championship jockey A.P. McCoy OBE, their recent project proved a great success at Kettering Town Football Club.
Forming the pitch's perimeter fencing system, Hampton NET™ was chosen for its exceptional strength, versatility and excellent rebound characteristics but also essential safety features. With its safer low profileknotted joint that locks the vertical and horizontal wires tight preventing movement under pressure, Hampton NET™ was the first choice fencing option for Malcolm Harris at Kettering Town Football Club.
"We wanted a fence that would not only fulfil in terms ofsafety for our supporters and players but also would retain its form under pressure and aesthetically be less intrusive than traditionalwelded mesh. Hampton NET™ could tick all those boxes but also exceed on durability," said Malcolm Harris.
"The FA and Calor League representatives have been to inspect the fencing as part of the ground grading process and were more than happy with both its functionality and safety attributes," said Malcolm.
Hampton's are not unfamiliar with stamps of approval from government bodies; their bear enclosure at five Sisters Zoo in West Lothian was issued with a similarly favourable response from the affiliated vet "the new Hampton NET™ bear enclosure rates as a world class exhibit."
