You can use Expamet edging section to transform
standard sheets of mesh into a variety of functional
products, adding value and enhancing appearance
and appeal. Expamet edging section seals the edges
of the mesh sheet giving a barrier for fixing,
protecting or handling the finished sheets. Frames
are frequently used on stairtreads and window
guards. If you require advice on which edging
section to use for your specific application, please
contact our sales team
Benefits
Edging section is an economical way to make a
mesh sheet into a functional panel. Fabrication is
easy to perform and not time consuming, giving
cost savings via our economically developed
method.
Features
We offer a choice of 19 types of Edging Section in
