Aluminium Brocklebank 20/5 mesh at 2 Cumberland Place Dublin.

Over 500 panels of Brocklebank 20/5 were used to create the bronze fins which add texture to this modern glass façade.

The mesh was sandwiched in a box section frame, before being powder coated.

The mesh was installed by GLF Façade Specialists and specified by Billings Design Associates.

In tandem with the perforated metal supplied by others, the mesh forms a brise soleil for the office workers within the building.

1,630m2 of Eiffel 40 metal mesh clads the offices of the Market Építő construction company located in Budapest, Hungary. The facade not only offers a strikingly attractive finish, it also filters the level of direct sunlight, providing comfort to the staff within.

Until very recently our spiral meshes were only available in natural finish stainless steel material - but thanks to recent technological advances we are beginning to offer aluminium and even copper material, along with powder coated and anodised finishes.

Copper is a material that provides excellent resistance to corrosion while at the same time delivering a modern and elegant, yet warm design, in both interior and exterior spaces. With this new finish, designers and planners will be able to create elegant surroundings that blend perfectly into the landscape and urban settings.

As this is a 100% recyclable material, it will help to reduce the environmental impact of their projects. In fact, studies conducted by the European Copper Institute have found that copper is a material that, during its production, handling, use and at the end of its useful life, complies with the European regulatory framework to generate the least impact on the environment and on people’s health.

Copper is also resistant to corrosion and has great durability, even in coastal or industrial areas. When installed correctly, it does not require any maintenance or cleaning.

About the Project

BBC Home Front in the Garden commissioned architectural wire mesh to be installed as part of a garden design for their popular TV series featuring Dairmuid Gavin.

A variety of wire mesh patterns were used to create structures within the garden:

  • Distinctive tunnel linking different areas of the garden - Brocklebank 20/5
  • Decorative and protective cages for fruit trees - Gladstone PC 100/10 (floor) and Brocklebank 50/50 (walls)
  • Screening for a Japanese bath house - Serenity 36

About the Project

Brocklebank 15/2 pre-crimped architectural wire mesh installed as sun screening at The Templeman Library in Canterbury.

The windows and façade of the Library's Templeman East building were replaced as part of a major remodelling project to improve appearance, access and facilities.

The Brocklebank mesh was supplied folded and riveted into fabricated frames. These framed mesh panels were then anodised Bronze Anolok 541 giving a 20 year life expectancy. Each panel is hinged for window-cleaning access and was specially designed to be compatible with standard curtain walling systems making this system readily adaptable to similar glazed façades.

About the Project

Coburg 12-12-12-12- architectural spiral wound mesh sun-screening at Oxford Science Park.

The screen is designed to allow differing amounts of light to pass through depending on the angle of the source. The mesh therefore filters maximum sunlight when the sun is at its highest, and allows more light flow early in the morning and at sunset. The Coburg pattern was varied for this project as follows: Open Area: 69%, Weight: 7.32 Kg/m2, Thickness: 13mm.
