MYTH VS FACT — what do you actually know about shock cord?

Spring is here and if you are gearing up for the busy season ahead, it pays to know your gear properly before you rely on it.

❌ MYTH: All elastic cord is basically the same.
✅ FACT: Quality shock cord uses a braided outer sheath over a natural or synthetic rubber core — the construction directly affects stretch recovery, load tolerance and how long it lasts under real-world conditions.

❌ MYTH: UV exposure does not affect elastic cord.
✅ FACT: Cheap cord degrades fast in the NZ sun. Zuna shock cord is UV resistant, meaning it holds up through season after season of outdoor use — exactly what you need heading into the longer spring and summer days.

❌ MYTH: One diameter does all the jobs.
✅ FACT: Different applications need different diameters. Lighter gauges suit securing covers and bundling. Heavier diameters handle serious tie-down work on loads, frames and equipment. Matching the diameter to the job is not optional — it is the difference between secure and sorry.

❌ MYTH: Shock cord is only for camping and caravanning.
✅ FACT: It is used across orchards, horticulture, marine, construction and trade. Anywhere you need a load to be held firm but with some give — shock cord is the smarter, safer solution.

Grab the right diameter for your application and stop making do with the wrong tool.

Did you know the right pull line can make or break a cable installation job?

Spring is here and cable crews across New Zealand are getting back out on the tools — longer days, better conditions, and a full season of fibre and duct work ahead.

That is exactly why JETLINE Orange Mono Braided Rope in 3mm is a go-to for telecom and fibre optic crews who need a lightweight, reliable blow and pull line that performs under pressure.

Here is what makes it work so well on the job:

🔶 Bright orange colouring — high visibility in trenches, ducts and tight conduit runs
🔶 Mono braided construction — smooth surface means less friction through duct, cleaner pulls every time
🔶 3mm diameter — the sweet spot for lightweight blow lines and starter pulls without adding unnecessary bulk
🔶 Tough enough for repeat use — built to handle the demands of daily field work

Whether your crew is blowing fibre through new subdivisions or pulling cable across rural Southland, JETLINE Orange gives you confidence the line is going to do its job without fuss.

Small rope. Big difference on site.

Get your crew sorted before the season hits full swing — JETLINE Orange is ready when you are.

Spring is here and the work does not stop — so neither should your load securing game.

If you are moving freight across New Zealand roads this season, you already know that a dodgy tie-down is not just a risk to your load — it is a risk to everyone sharing that road with you.

Our Transport Rope Twisted is built for exactly this kind of work. Twisted construction means real grip, real strength, and consistent performance whether you are strapping down timber, machinery, or general freight on a long haul through the Waikato or a coastal run down the South Island.

This is not rope you buy once and regret. This is rope that earns its place on your truck day after day.

What makes it work:
— Twisted construction for superior grip and flexibility
— High load-securing strength you can trust
— Tough enough for the daily grind of commercial transport
— Handles NZ conditions without fuss

Spring weather in NZ can be unpredictable — one minute blue skies, next minute sideways rain. Your rope needs to perform in all of it. Ours does.

Get your rig sorted before the busy freight season hits full stride.

Spring is here and the ground is thawing out — which means civil and utility crews right across New Zealand are ramping up underground work fast. Before you break ground on your next telecom install, run through this quick checklist to make sure your cable protection is sorted.

✅ UNDERGROUND WARNING TAPE — GET IT RIGHT

☐ Have you confirmed the correct tape colour for telecoms? White is the standard — do not mix it up with other utilities.

☐ Is your tape UV resistant? Exposure during installation is real — low-grade tape degrades before it even goes in the ground.

☐ Are your rolls long enough to cover the full run without mid-trench joins? ZunaWarn Underground Warning Tape White comes in 365m rolls — fewer joins, cleaner installs, less risk.

☐ Is your warning text clearly printed and legible? Every metre of ZunaWarn tape carries bold printed warning text so future excavators know exactly what is below.

☐ Have you briefed your crew on correct placement depth above the asset? Tape at the right depth is what saves cables — and saves you from a very expensive call-out.

☐ Is your stock level checked before the job starts? Running out mid-trench wastes time and money.

ZunaWarn Underground Warning Tape White is built for New Zealand conditions — UV stable, clearly marked, and ready to work as hard as your crew does.

Get your next project protected properly before the busy spring season hits full stride.

Spring is here — and so are the bugs.

September in Hawkes Bay means warming soils, new growth, and unfortunately, a surge in insect pressure that can devastate crops before you even see it coming.

One of the biggest mistakes growers make this time of year? Waiting until damage appears before acting. By then, whitefly, thrips, and leafminer have already had a head start — and catching up is costly.

ZunaGuard Anti-Insect Netting is your first line of defence. Applied early in the season, it creates a fine mesh barrier that physically excludes insects without sealing off your crop. Airflow keeps moving, UV light gets through, and your plants breathe easy — all while the pest pressure stays on the outside where it belongs.

Built to handle New Zealand conditions with UV-resistant construction, ZunaGuard is trusted by serious vegetable and crop growers who know that prevention beats intervention every time.

Do not let the season get ahead of you — your crop cannot afford to play catch-up.

Winter on the farm is no joke — shorter days, wet paddocks, and the pressure to get feed sorted before conditions turn uglier. If you are running large square balers this season, your twine choice matters more than most people think.

Here is a quick pre-baling checklist to keep your operation running clean:

✅ Check your spool count before you start — running out mid-paddock is a costly headache
✅ Inspect your baler needles and tensioners for wear before the season ramps up
✅ Store your twine off the ground, away from direct UV exposure between uses
✅ Know your break strength — underspec twine on a large square baler means broken bales and lost feed
✅ Make sure your twine is UV stabilised if bales are sitting outside for any length of time

Zuna Baler Twine 640 Yellow ticks every one of those boxes. Built specifically for large square balers, it delivers 260 kgf break strength so your bales hold firm through handling, stacking, and storage. At 1300 metres per spool, you are getting serious run time without constant changeovers — exactly what you need when the winter workload is stacking up.

UV stabilised throughout, it holds up even when bales are left exposed in the elements. That is the kind of reliability mixed farm operators can build a season around.

Get your twine sorted now — do not let a supply gap slow you down when the paddocks are ready to roll.

Winter baling season is here, and your twine should be the last thing you are worried about.

Zuna Baler Twine 270 Blue is built for New Zealand conditions — UV stabilised to handle whatever this August throws at you, with a 108 kgf break strength that keeps your bales tight from the first spool to the last. At 2000 metres per spool, you are covering serious ground without constant changeovers.

Industry Tip: Mid-winter hay runs put more stress on twine than most farmers expect. Cold mornings cause fibres to stiffen, and worn baler knotter components amplify that tension. Run a quick knotter timing check before your next baling day and pair it with a quality UV-stabilised twine — it makes a real difference in bale density and knot reliability when the mercury is sitting low.

For lifestyle block owners and small farm operators across Nelson and beyond, having twine you can trust means one less thing between you and a clean, efficient winter cut.

Get your winter baling sorted before the next weather window closes.

MYTH vs FACT — What seaweed farmers need to know about tying twine.

MYTH: Any old twine will do the job in the water.
FACT: Standard twines break down fast in UV-exposed, salt-saturated marine environments — costing you crop loss, rework time, and frustration you do not need mid-season.

MYTH: Marine-grade means it is just a marketing label.
FACT: ZunaTide Seaweed Tying Twine is purpose-built for seaweed cultivation. UV resistant, marine grade, and designed to handle the relentless conditions of open-water farming through the cold NZ winter months when conditions get seriously testing.

MYTH: All twines perform the same over time.
FACT: The difference shows up weeks in — when inferior twine is degrading and your lines are failing, ZunaTide is still holding firm and protecting your yield.

This winter, do not let the wrong twine make a hard season harder. Your crop is worth more than a compromise.

Winter in the orchard is the season to get ahead. While the vines are dormant and the frost is still lifting off the rows, smart growers are already thinking about what holds their crop together when the growth surge hits in spring.

Zuna Kiwi Twine is built for exactly this work. Nickel green and practically invisible against the canopy, it blends into your trellis system without drawing attention — but with 30 kgf of holding strength and 4680 metres per spool, it is doing serious mahi all season long.

One spool. Thousands of ties. Less running back to the shed.

Whether you are training new laterals, tying down canes, or just making sure your trellising is prepped before the August pruning push, this is the twine that keeps pace with you. It will not snap mid-tie, it will not fade into something that clashes with your canopy, and it will not run out before the job is done.

Zuna Kiwi Twine — 800tex single end, designed for NZ horticulture conditions, trusted by growers from Northland to Hawke's Bay.

Get your spools sorted before the season demand kicks in.

Winter is here — and that means hail season prep starts NOW. 🌨️

For orchardists growing apples, pears and stone fruit, a single hailstorm can wipe out months of work in minutes. Do not wait until the clouds roll in.

Here is your pre-season ZunaHail checklist:

✅ Inspect existing nets for tears, UV fatigue or sagging panels
✅ Check anchor points, wire tensioning and support poles
✅ Clear debris and leaf build-up from net surfaces
✅ Identify coverage gaps before new growth appears
✅ Order replacement sections now — do not get caught short mid-season
✅ Confirm your net is UV stabilised and NZ-proven for local conditions

ZunaHail hail protection netting is knitted for strength, UV stabilised for longevity, and trusted by New Zealand orchardists who cannot afford to gamble on their crop.

Get your orchard covered before the weather gets a vote.
