Standard Expanded Metal Mesh
General Model, Standard SpecificationExpanded metal mesh for public walkways, elevated platforms, stairs, railings, and partitionsShang Kai Steel’s standard expanded metal mesh, a versatile and widely used building material, is designed to meet the functional and structural needs of the Taiwan market. This form of metal mesh integrates durability, sustainability, and architectural flexibility across infrastructure and public works. Lightweight yet strong and safeCompared with other metal mesh types, standard expanded metal mesh maintains structural integrity while being significantly lighter in weight. It is manufactured using first-grade steel from China Steel Corporation (CSC), with batch certification available. The expanded metal mesh is produced through a standardized, high-precision process—its surface is flat, apertures are uniform, edges are burr-free, and dimensional tolerances are controlled within ±3 mm. This makes it ideal for public walkways, platform mesh, and large-scale infrastructure projects.2. Customizable apertures for privacy and ventilationThe mesh can be tailored in terms of aperture size, angle, and arrangement. Thanks to the three-dimensional structure of architectural metal mesh, it can obscure direct lines of sight from multiple angles while allowing natural airflow. This dual function makes it an excellent solution for fences, partitions, and privacy screens in both residential and commercial outdoor spaces.3. Corrosion-resistant surface treatmentsSurface finishes on expanded metal mesh not only enhance appearance but also add a protective layer to resist oxidation and corrosion. Shang Kai Steel offers various surface treatments based on material type: Steel mesh: hot-dip galvanized for superior durability Aluminum mesh: anodizing, powder coating, or fluorocarbon coating Stainless steel mesh: electroplating for long-term protectionThese options ensure long-lasting performance in various environmental conditions.4. Flexible processing and edge protectionIn addition to surface treatment, Shang Kai Steel provides custom services such as cutting expanded metal mesh to specific dimensions or enclosing the edges for added safety. These processing options support faster, safer, and more efficient construction and installation.5. Sustainable material aligned with 3R principlesThe production of expanded metal mesh involves slitting and stretching without material waste, in line with the 3R principles: Reduce: Mesh has a service life of up to 60 years, minimizing maintenance and replacement. Recycle: At the end of its use, the mesh can be collected and processed. Reuse: Recycled metal can be remanufactured into new mesh products.As a result, expanded metal mesh stands out as an eco-friendly green building material choice for modern architecture.Expanded Metal Is Available In The Following Metal TypesCarbon SteelPre-Galvanized SteelHot Dip Galvanized SteelStainless SteelAluminum Inquire about the available materials, hole sizes, shapes, patterns, thicknesses, and finishes.ApplicationsExpanded mesh can be used in various applications, including maintenance walkways, building stairs, platforms, balcony railings, partitions, fences, and screens.

High Ribbed Formwork
SKRF TypeMetal Construction Mesh, High-Ribbed Formwork, Ribbed Mesh, Metal Light Partition Mesh, Metal Reinforced Mesh, Metal Rib Lath, Stay-in-place Formwork, Metal High-rib MoldShang Kai Steel's metal stay-in-place formwork, also known as High Ribbed Formwork, is made from hot-dip galvanized steel sheets that meet international standards and is formed through advanced automated rolling and pressing machines. This formwork is designed to be lightweight, easy to handle, and readily cut and bent, making it an ideal temporary structural material. It not only can replace traditional wooden formwork but also effectively bear the self-weight of the construction formwork and other external loads.Expanded Metal Is Available In The Following Metal TypesCarbon SteelPre-Galvanized SteelHot Dip Galvanized SteelStainless SteelAluminumHigh Ribbed FormworkA major feature of the High Ribbed Formwork is the diversity of its ribbed design, which can be placed vertically or horizontally according to different construction needs, offering a variety of shapes and sizes. Additionally, the formwork's edge ribs are designed with bends, forming a channel structure with the panel, which not only facilitates the pouring of concrete but also improves the quality and safety of the construction. Using Shang Kai Steel's metal stay-in-place formwork not only speeds up the construction process but also helps to reduce the overall construction costs, making it an economical and efficient building solution. ApplicationsBuilding exteriors, interior partitions, industrial facilities, pipeline protection, fireproof material industry. We can produce sizes that comply with international standards such as CNS, JIS, BS, ASTM, and AS/NZS. If you have any requirements, including the intended use and desired materials.Materials:Pre-Galvanized Steel
