Alpine 48 is a simple yet cost effective metal mesh, it is constructed from alternating left and right hand spiral coils. The coils are held in place by interconnecting crimp rods which run through the width of the mesh panel. The edges of the mesh are welded to provide additional strength.Alpine 48 is perfect for cladding entire facades due to its continuous manufacturing process enabling large panels to be fabricated in one piece. Tensioning is also achieved using flat bars and eye bolts inserted into the top and bottom of the panels. This mesh also lends itself to be used for solar shading and sun screening applications, whether mounted to a roller system or as static panels, it has excellent sun screening properties. Other applications also include balustrades, metal curtains, partitions and space dividers.
