History

A kind of thick barbed wire with very limited applications known as the linear barbed wire was used for creating barriers in the past.

The early product manufactured through this method was named “concertina wire” and could be easily cut using special scissors. In 1980, the core of this type of barbed wire was strengthened with steel strands in order to increase its quality as well as the level of security that it provided.
