Abstract: In at least one embodiment, the present invention provides a biaxially oriented extruded netting. The netting comprises a plurality of interconnected strands with at least some of the strands comprise a HDPE composition comprising a plurality of interconnected strands, with at least some of the strands comprising a composition comprising HDPE. In at least certain embodiments, the net has a strength-to-weight ratio of at least 2.0 lbf/(in.×PMSF). In at least one embodiment, at least 50% of the strands are made of the HDPE composition. The present invention also relates to a method for making biaxially oriented extruded HDPE netting. The method comprises extruding strands of polymer material to form a netting wherein at least some of the strands are formed of the HDPE and biaxially orienting the netting.
