Aluminum Expanded Metal Mesh Sheet Panels for Architecture and Industry
Mallas Wire Mesh Manufacturing Co. offers Aluminum Expanded Metal Mesh Sheet. Its common specifications and dimensions are mesh openings from 3 mm × 6 mm to 50 mm × 100 mm, strand thicknesses between 0.5 mm and 6 mm, and sheet sizes of 1000 mm × 2000 mm, 1220 mm × 2440 mm, or as required. Produced by cutting and stretching aluminum sheets into diamond, hexagonal, or decorative patterns, it provides high strength-to-weight ratio and superior corrosion resistance. Aluminum expanded metal is lightweight, non-rusting, and easy to fabricate or form, making it ideal for architectural cladding, sunshades, walkways, fences, security screens, and ventilation panels. Available in mill, anodized, or powder-coated finishes, it offers excellent durability and visual appeal for both industrial and decorative applications. This versatile material combines functionality with aesthetics, widely used in construction, machinery protection, and interior design projects.
Aluminum Expanded Metal Types
- Standard (Raised) Aluminum Expanded Metal – Formed during the slitting and stretching process, featuring raised diamond openings typically from 10 mm × 20 mm to 50 mm × 100 mm, with strand thicknesses between 1 mm and 5 mm. Provides excellent strength, grip, and ventilation, making it suitable for walkways, platforms, stair treads, and machine guards.
- Flattened Aluminum Expanded Metal – Created by cold rolling raised mesh to achieve a flat, smooth surface. Common mesh sizes range from 6 mm × 12 mm to 40 mm × 80 mm with sheet thicknesses of 0.5 mm to 4 mm. Ideal for architectural façades, ceilings, partitions, and ventilation covers requiring aesthetic appeal and lightweight structure.
- Micro Expanded Aluminum Mesh – Made with ultra-fine openings from 1 mm × 2 mm to 3 mm × 6 mm and strand widths of 0.3 mm to 1 mm. Perfect for precision filtration, speaker grilles, air diffusers, and electronic shielding applications.
- Decorative Aluminum Expanded Mesh – Available in diamond, hexagonal, or custom artistic patterns with openings from 5 mm × 10 mm to 30 mm × 60 mm. Used for building façades, interior partitions, sunshades, and ceiling decoration where both design and functionality are required.
- Heavy-Duty Aluminum Expanded Metal – Fabricated from thicker aluminum sheets ranging from 4 mm to 6 mm in thickness with large mesh openings of 25 mm × 50 mm to 75 mm × 150 mm. Offers high load-bearing performance, making it ideal for flooring, ramps, stair treads, and industrial platforms.
