Products
Here we showcase our standard decorative expanded metal mesh patterns. We can also develop custom decorative expanded metal products to meet your specific requirements according to your design concept.
Materials
Aluminum
Aluminum is a lightweight and durable metal widely used in architectural applications. Its high strength-to-weight ratio, ease of shaping, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal make it an ideal material for many architectural projects. Additionally, aluminum's recyclability enhances its use in environmentally friendly architectural applications.
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a popular material in architecture due to its strength, durability, and aesthetic appeal. It is commonly used in cladding, roofing, and other applications. Stainless steel is versatile, easy to maintain, and can be customized to fit various styles and design requirements..
Steel
Steel is a strong, durable, and versatile material widely used in structural applications such as beams, columns, and frames, as well as in cladding and roofing systems. It is cost-effective, easy to maintain, and can be customized with various surface coatings to fit different architectural styles and design requirements.
Cor-ten
Cor-Ten steel is a weather-resistant steel with higher resistance to atmospheric conditions compared to regular steel. When Cor-Ten panels are exposed to outdoor conditions, they develop a adherent and protective layer of rust.
Copper
Copper is a durable and versatile material commonly used in roofing, cladding, and decorative elements. It is valued for its unique appearance and corrosion resistance. It can be customized with various surface coatings to fit different architectural styles and design requirements.
Brass
Brass is an alloy consisting of copper and zinc. It is more durable than copper and more malleable than zinc. Additionally, brass provides an aesthetic appearance with its surface brightness and tones close to the color of gold. Brass is a popular material, especially for decoration and architectural applications. It is highly resistant to oxidation and can be processed in various forms. Brass can be produced with different alloys, each with varying properties depending on the ratio of copper to zinc.
Galvanize
Galvanization, also known as galvanized coating, is the process of coating metals with zinc. Zinc is the third most commonly used industrial element after aluminum and copper. Coating metal materials with zinc leads to increased corrosion resistance and strength. There are two main methods used for galvanizing metal materials. One of them is the hot-dip method. The second method employed for galvanization is cold coating.
Surface Treatment
Powder Coating
Powder Coating
Powder coating allows us to apply any desired RAL color to our panels. The powder is attracted to the metal surface due to its static charge, and then the material is heated in an oven where the powder melts and undergoes a chemical reaction. The result is an extremely durable outer layer. The thickness of the layer varies from a minimum of 60 microns for indoor applications to up to 120 microns for outdoor applications. Powder coatings contribute to the desired aesthetic result and allow for a matte, satin, or glossy finish. Products with powder coating provide excellent color retention and have an extremely durable top layer. The electrostatic varnish process creates an optimum adhesive and corrosion-free surface. This ensures a long lifespan, and the coating remains intact even during processes such as cutting, drilling, and milling. Additionally, we offer anti-graffiti coating as an extra option. This top layer prevents graffiti and stickers from adhering to the material.
Anodizing
Anodizing
Anodizing is a process that provides aluminum with a stainless protective layer. As a result, a durable product with an unlimited lifespan and minimal maintenance requirements is obtained. Its appearance is preserved, and it prevents blackening. During anodization, aluminum undergoes an accelerated oxidation process, transforming its surface layer into aluminum oxide. The thickness of this layer depends on whether the product is intended for indoor or outdoor use. Anodized aluminum can naturally have a matte or glossy surface, and various colors such as bronze, silver, or gold can be added. This makes it preferred in different sectors like construction, automotive, and aerospace where properties such as corrosion resistance and durability are crucial.
Hot Dip Galvanize
Hot Dip Galvanize
Galvanized steel is protected against erosion and has a highly durable protective layer. Thermal galvanization provides a thick and homogeneous layer across the entire surface of the panels. Small damages up to approximately 3 millimeters deep do not affect the lifespan of galvanized panels. Thermal galvanization involves dipping the steel into low-grade liquid zinc at 0°C, ensuring equal protection for all exterior and interior areas of the structure. Steel and zinc combine to form a galvanized alloy with a pure zinc layer. Galvanized products are highly durable, require minimal maintenance, and offer maximum protection at minimal cost. Galvanized steel can be used outdoors and can be coated in any color.
