Browse Forums Windows & Doors 1 Jan 25, 2014 4:12 pm we been offered by our builder to choose between carbon fibre or aluminium for the mesh (in fly screens).
aluminium is $8 extra for each window. googled and apparently aluminium is only better for bushfire or costal areas. all sliding windows are upstairs and won't face any pressure from kids or pets. we aren't close to coast, and not in bushfire zone either. so in this case which one should we go with? pls advise, thanks.

I have fibreglass mesh, (you are being offered fibreglass not carbon fibre), they are still in good shape 17 years on.
