Expansion process: how it happens

Expanded mesh is the result of cutting and cold-pressing the raw materials (rolls or sheets). All the expanding machines we use have been designed and built in-house. We constantly optimise these to ensure the excellent design and quality of our semi-finished products, plus great flexibility when producing mesh to order.

Product range: more than 30,000 different types of expanded metal mesh

The broader the product range, the easier it is to choose the right product. L HOLDING is Europe's greatest specialist in expanded mesh, offering up to 30,000 different variants, with mesh apertures that range from 0.50 mm to 400 mm and anything up to 6 mm thick. Fils uses its manufacturing know-how for the benefit of design engineers, metalworkers and industry.

Six different processes to work and use the expanded metal mesh

Fils expanded mesh can be used for a wide variety of applications thanks to different processes. By combining modular panels to suit the design layout, the surfaces are guaranteed to be the right size and shape. Each process offers great benefits for architects, designers and users.
