SnapMax™

Designed to be the most user-friendly vine shelter on the market, the SnapMax Vine Shelter suppresses lateral growth, maximizes vine survivability during the first twelve months, and reduces vine management costs. Snapmax Vine Shelters are quickly and easily assembled and removed. The interlocking side tabs allow for easy assembly and removal as well as for easy access to the vines. The top-folding flap allows for the Snapmax Vine Shelter to be attached directly to the cordon wires that are approximately 30 inches off the ground. Side slots can be used to secure the SnapMax directly to a variety of vine supports, including bamboo, rebar and pencil rod. An optional wire clip can be used to secure the SnapMax to cordon wires of varying heights.
