From façade design to industrial flooring, expanded metal is quietly shaping the built environment around us.
The Expanded Metal Company has been manufacturing expanded metal mesh in Hartlepool since 1889. For more than a century, the material has been used across engineering, manufacturing and construction thanks to its strength, versatility and efficiency.
Expanded metal mesh is a lightweight yet strong material and today, it is used in everything from architectural façades and screening to industrial flooring, platforms, machine guards and filtration systems. Its open structure allows light and air to pass through while maintaining strength and durability, which makes it suitable for both functional and design-led uses.
Security is another important application. Through our specialist division, ExMesh Engineering, we also design and manufacture perimeter security fencing systems, cages and anti-climb systems which are used to protect infrastructure, utilities and other sensitive sites.
With more than 135 years of manufacturing heritage, we continue to support projects across multiple industries while investing in UK engineering and production.
