Sankey 's expanded metal mesh range includes popular brands such as Ornamesh, Gridmesh, Louvamesh, Maximesh, Balustmesh, Rendalok and Ruralmesh, formerly offered by BlueScope Lysaght.
Sankey’s product range is suitable for applications in architecture, building design, rural applications, and production of consumer products which use metal. The range includes products suitable for decorative and practical screens for privacy, against sun and wind, and others that are suitable for flooring, balustrading and security.
The manufacturing process of the expanded metal mesh involves taking a flat sheet of metal and simultaneously slitting and stretching it to form a diamond shaped hole pattern. During the process, no metal is lost and the final product is stronger per kilogram and lighter per metre than the original sheet of metal.
Often incorporated as a popular architectural feature, the expanded metal mesh offers the benefits of decoration, protection, support and security. This versatile mesh allows light, heat and air through, while retaining its strength, and forming a strong barrier for security purposes.
