Personally as I already have a drill. I would drill it and fix with small screws.

As mjw suggests..drill it and screw it.. or the plastic may shatter

For such a simple task, I can't see that you'd need anything more than a 'glorified stapler', such as this one:

It's even cheaper if you buy a refurbished model:

Large head screws (ideally with soft material washers) will minimise any localised stress on the plastic trellis during strong winds.

The nailer/stapler Bueno has linked is a good DIY make.

But.............  I wouldn't use it as a nail gun. The nailheads are quite small.  They'll pull through the uPVC under weight and strong wind.

Use staples. They're U-shaped. Preferably fire them so that one leg of the staple is in the uPVC, and the other leg directly into the post. Only a small point, but it should prove to be a stronger fix.

I would prefer to drill and screw with a cordless screw driver/drill.  The added advantage is that the panels would be 'de-mountable'.  Which is jargon-speak for ' you can unscrew them and move them somewhere else if you change your plans.'

Again, the screwheads could pull through. Use Stainless Steel Cup Washers.

What wrong with a hammer 🔨 

Hammers are fine dusty, as long as you use these......
