Special shape expanded metal mesh

The industrial designer of today must not only be concerned with the mechanical requirements in design but also the necessity of sales appeal for that product. Solutions to these design problems become apparent through the use of decorative mesh expanded metal.

Decorative mesh, like standard expanded metal, is a self-contained piece of metal which won't unravel, thus retaining its shape after years of constant use. The same properties making standard expanded metals so applicable to today's needs — lightweight, strength, rigidity, free passage of air, light, heat, sound and adaptability to finishing processes are also present in decorative expanded metals plus functional attractiveness. Functional because the decorative mesh pattern provides control of mass by regulating flow through direction and volume, yet attractive; giving the sales appeal sought by the industrial designer.

The decorative mesh patterns seen here are our most popular styles. Expanded Metals has other decorative mesh styles that can be produced in aluminum and carbon steel expanded metal. We can also custom design a decorative mesh pattern to meet your specific requirements.
