Architectural Facade Expanded Metal
Architectural Facade, Decorative Metal Mesh, Expanded Mesh Ceilings
Shang Kai Steel offers expanded metal in all-specifications for architectural façades that reduce heat gain and save energy, thereby lowering indoor temperatures and boosting energy efficiency. This advanced expanded-metal technology features new special patterns—including gradient diamond patterns—that give architects more design freedom to enhance building performance.
High-quality architectural facade expanded metal from Shang Kai Steel comes from:
1. The expanded metal is manufactured exclusively with aluminum sourced from CSC (China Steel Corporation), with full certificates that trace every material batch and origin.
2. A high-precision standardized process keeps each piece of expanded metal within a dimensional tolerance of ±3 mm. This process speeds up installation, reduces labor costs, and results in expanded metal that can last for about 60 years per piece.
Architectural Heat-Insulation & Energy Saving
After analyzing site sunlight, Shang Kai Steel customizes the pattern size and angle of the expanded metal to block solar radiation, cutting heat gain. Field tests show an indoor temperature drop of 4–6 °C and an energy-use reduction of 24 %–36 %.
Structural Safety & Stability
Premium raw materials and a precise process give expanded metal uniform openings, a flat surface and non-deformed edges. Installed as expanded metal on an architectural facade, the system is solid, durable and safe.
Apply For Green Building Label
The expanded metal has earned two green-building materials certificates (Green Building Innovative Technology and Low-Carbon Construction Method) and a full life-cycle carbon audit. Used as an architectural facade or green wall, it helps projects secure green-building labels, win ESG tenders and obtain government subsidies.
Daylighting & Ventilation
The continuous diamond pattern of expanded metal maintains natural light and airflow while still improving thermal insulation and energy efficiency. such as hot-dip galvanizing, metal electroplating, powder coating, and fluorocarbon painting.
Versatile Fabrication
An expanded metal sheet can be hot-dip galvanized, metal-plated, powder-coated or plastic-over-molded. It can also be cut, spliced or framed to create layered, expressive facades.
