Vine Guard Sleeves - 270M Continuous Roll (135mm Lay Flat) - Custom-Cut, Heavy-Duty Protection for Vines & Canes

*On Backorder - Expected late July 2026*

For vineyard and orchard operations requiring maximum protection over non-standard lengths, pre-cut guards lead to wastage and complex joining. This 270-metre Continuous Roll of Heavy-Duty Vine Guard Sleeves provides the ultimate solution. Manufactured with durable 200UM green plastic, the roll allows you to custom-cut the exact length required for every unique application, ensuring uncompromising, long-life protection for high-value young vines and berry canes against herbicide drift and harsh weather across your entire planting.

Optimised for commercial operations, this bulk format allows managers to establish custom-tailored physical barriers that shield vulnerable growth from targeted spray treatments and wildlife browsing. The heavy-gauge material limits physical flattening from seasonal winds while maintaining structural integrity over multi-row deployments. By utilising a bulk roll configuration, large-scale properties can streamline their planting workflows, lower material waste, and reduce overall setup costs during intensive acreage establishment.

Best For: The commercial vineyard operator, specialty grower, or tree farm manager requiring an ultra-high-volume, heavy-gauge, UV-protected sleeve in a continuous format for custom-cutting lengths tailored to specific, demanding applications.

Key Features:

• Custom-Cut Length Capability: Supplied as a single 270-metre roll, allowing operators to cut the sleeves to any length required (from short whip guards to extra-long vine trainers) eliminating wastage and accommodating non-standard plantings.
• Extreme 200UM Heavy-Duty Thickness: Constructed with an ultra-durable 200-micron LDPE plastic, this sleeve offers twice the thickness of standard guards, providing exceptional resistance to tearing, cracking, and damage from machinery or rodents.
• Superior UV Stabilisation (3%): Fortified with a 3% UV additive, the guard is built for extended multi-season life in high-sun environments, delivering long-term asset protection and reducing costly guard replacement cycles.
• Optimal Vine Profile & Material: The 135mm lay-flat width ensures a snug fit around young vine stalks, and the green colour blends into the foliage, while the bulk roll maximises purchasing and operational efficiency.
• Australian Made Quality: Manufactured locally, ensuring high material quality consistency and supporting specialised protection needs for Australian growing conditions.

Primary Cultivation & Field Applications

• Custom-Length Commercial Vine Shielding: Providing critical trunk and leader protection for new commercial vineyard plantings requiring specific, non-standard guard lengths.
• Extended Vertical Cane Protection: Shielding young cane fruit or specialty stock where extra-long vertical protection is required to train upward growth.
• High-Exposure Risk Mitigation: Creating protective barriers in high-damage zones where the 200UM thickness is essential for survival against weather, drifting chemical controls, or small pest animals.
• Ornamental & Standard Stock Stability: Securing high-value ornamental vines and standards during their crucial first years in the ground with custom-sized guards.

Important Shipping Notice: This product is sold Ex Works (EXW). A delivery surcharge will be calculated and applied based on the final shipping destination and total order weight at dispatch.

Pro Tip & Precision Tool Maintenance: When installing these heavy-duty 200UM guards, ensure your cutting tool has a clean, sharp bypass blade to prevent tearing or jagged edges along the custom cut line. Drive support stakes deep into the subsoil before pulling the sleeve taut over the vine assembly. To reuse the sleeves across multiple short-term training cycles, wipe down the internal surfaces with a mild disinfectant solution after extraction to clear out overwintering insect pests, then roll the material loosely and store it away from direct sunlight out of season.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
• Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
• Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
• Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions

Business Delivery:

• Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
• If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.
