Incorporating a metal mesh interlayer laminated between a nearly endless selection of surface glasses, this solution brings an elegantly shiny, shimmering and potentially glistening element to any space, and is available in an extensive palette of wire colors including gold, brass, gunmetal, silver, and copper finishes.
Achieve the visual presence of metal in safety-rated glass – our proprietary lamination process permanently bonds metal mesh interlayers within glass structures, creating architectural elements that combine the aesthetic appeal of metalwork with the performance and safety benefits of laminated glass.
Our comprehensive collection of metal mesh options spans traditional precious metals to contemporary industrial finishes, each offering unique reflective properties and visual character.
Our proprietary lamination technique permanently bonds metal mesh materials between layers of glass using advanced interlayer systems. This process ensures that the metallic elements maintain their structural integrity and visual properties while becoming an integral part of the laminated glass assembly.
From closely woven golden wire mesh with nearly imperceptible patterns to bold, dramatic metal configurations that create strong visual statements, our mesh options include stainless steel, aluminum alloy, copper, brass, and specialty metallic finishes. Each material offers distinct characteristics in terms of opacity, reflectivity, and pattern density.
A clear double-sided glass featuring textured wire interlayers gives materials dimensional presence both to the touch and to the eye. The combination of surface glass textures with embedded metal mesh creates multi-layered visual experiences that change dramatically with lighting conditions.
One project incorporating our custom wire mesh glass that we’re particularly proud of is the Paul Hastings LLP headquarters in downtown Los Angeles. Featuring a closely woven golden wire mesh with a nearly imperceptible vertical herringbone pattern within a barely tinted surface glass, our custom laminated glass solution creates stunning feature walls and infill accents befitting this luxurious and worldly office space.
Metal mesh glass installations meet or exceed ANSI Z97.1 Category II safety glazing requirements, ensuring that decorative beauty never compromises structural performance or occupant safety.
The laminated construction protects metal mesh elements from oxidation, corrosion, and physical damage while maintaining easy cleaning protocols for long-term performance and appearance.
Metal mesh interlayers provide natural shading and help control solar heat gain, reducing HVAC loads while creating dynamic light patterns that enhance interior environments throughout the day.
The combination of laminated glass construction and metal mesh interlayers contributes to acoustic control, helping to reduce noise transmission in partition and curtain wall applications.
Metal mesh provides additional strength and impact resistance, making installations ideal for high-traffic areas and applications requiring enhanced security performance.
Control privacy levels and light transmission through mesh density and pattern selection, from subtle privacy enhancement to complete opacity with decorative metallic character.
Metal mesh glass elements serve both functional and aesthetic purposes across diverse architectural environments, creating spaces that shimmer and shine while providing essential performance benefits.
Create stunning focal points with large-format metal mesh panels that reflect and play with light, adding luxury and sophistication to any interior space.
Integrate metal mesh glass into exterior curtain walls for effective daylighting strategies while creating distinctive building facades with metallic character.
Define workspace boundaries with shimmering glass elements that provide privacy and acoustic control while maintaining visual connection and light flow.
Transform vertical transportation spaces with metallic glass installations that create luxurious, jewelry-like environments in confined spaces.
Make powerful first impressions with metal mesh installations that communicate sophistication and attention to detail in corporate environments.
Create eye-catching display backgrounds and merchandising elements that add glamour and visual interest while maintaining product visibility.
Enhance restaurant, hotel, and entertainment spaces with metallic glass elements that create atmosphere and reflect brand sophistication.
Incorporate metal mesh glass into cabinetry and furniture design for pieces that serve as functional storage and decorative art simultaneously.
