PVC Coated Wire — Buying Guide

What Is PVC Coated Wire?

PVC coated wire is galvanised steel wire with an additional layer of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coating extruded over the zinc-coated wire. The PVC coating provides a smooth, coloured finish that adds corrosion protection beyond the galvanising alone, and provides a more attractive appearance for visible fencing and garden applications where bare galvanised wire might look out of place. Green and black PVC coated wire is widely used in garden fencing and mesh products where the wire is intended to blend into the landscape.

Common Applications

  • Garden wire — plant support wire, training wire for espalier, vine training and garden tie-up applications
  • Garden fencing — PVC coated hex wire and welded mesh for garden borders and decorative enclosures where a colour-coordinated look is preferred
  • Tying and binding — flexible PVC coated tie wire for tying plants, bundling, and general general-purpose binding
  • Chain wire fencing — PVC coated chain wire is used for black or green chain wire mesh fencing (including the black PVC chain wire products in our range)
  • Craft and hobby — coloured wire for wreaths, sculpture, floral work and craft projects

Selecting the Right PVC Wire

Match the wire gauge and coating colour to your application. For plant support and garden training, light-gauge soft wire (0.8mm–1.5mm) in green is popular for its flexibility and inconspicuous appearance. For fencing mesh, heavy-gauge wire with UV-stabilised PVC coating is essential for longevity. Black PVC coated wire is the match for our black chain wire mesh products. Green PVC coated wire suits garden mesh applications where blending with foliage is preferred.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does PVC coated wire last outdoors?
Quality UV-stabilised PVC coated wire typically lasts 10–20 years outdoors in Australian conditions. UV exposure accelerates degradation of the PVC coating over time — use UV-stabilised products for maximum longevity.

Is PVC coated wire safe for food gardens?
For garden training and support, PVC coated wire is generally considered safe for occasional use near food crops. Avoid direct soil contact over extended periods in vegetable beds.
