Thatch Screen

This thatch screen is actually made from extremely tough and fibrous heather stems. These wiry heather stems are a wonderful chocolate brown colour that slowly fades to silvery grey as it ages just like real thatch screen does. Bundles of these heather stems are bound together with galvanised wire to give a unique screen at least as far as appearances go.

The flexibility that is inherent with this screen makes it the most useful when it comes to covering unusually shaped objects such as oil tanks or octagonal gazebo roofs. With a bit of persuasion it can be made to adapt to most things and is very easy to fix.

It has a long lifespan of five to ten years if fixed correctly and is almost maintenance free. Outdoors very little bothers it but we do not recommend the use of this screen indoors as it tends to be dusty and spiders love it!

It comes in 4 m 13 ft long rolls that are either 1 m, 3 ft 3 inches, 1.5 m , 4 ft 11 inches or 2 m 6 ft 6 inches wide.

This screen makes a superb faux thatch roof that can help to subdue the ubiquitous but necessary garden shed or provide a natural summer sunshade to an overheated green house. The uses for this screen are legion and we  heartily recommend you read our "Uses" page which is bound to inspire you and also have a look at our" How To" page for fixing instructions
