Scaffold netting is an open mesh or comparable covering applied to scaffolding for a specified, assessed purpose.
What does this mean for your project?
The word netting does not independently establish which materials a product contains or which activities it suits. Describe the intended purpose, such as screening façade work, and have the provision considered together with the working method and surrounding conditions.
Netting is not an automatic replacement for other measures when activities take place above an entrance or public route. Discuss the complete situation. Identify existing coverings and the party responsible for alterations during the project, rather than assuming responsibility follows the person currently working nearby.
Adding or removing netting later can change the assessed arrangement. Request alterations through the agreed contact and communicate the resulting use information. This page provides no installation method or guarantee concerning containment of dust or falling materials by a particular mesh product.

Is all scaffold netting dust-tight?
No. Properties do not follow from a generic product name. Discuss the desired purpose and appropriate provision.
Can netting be removed without agreement?
Do not remove it on your own initiative. It may form part of the agreed function and assessed arrangement.
