High-Rib Mesh

High-Rib Mesh is an expanded metal sheet product, specifically developed for use as permanent formwork to concrete. The profile of the open mesh, in combination with the tangs, allow the development of dense concrete nodules and indents on the face of the High-Rib, forming an enhanced mechanical key for the second phase pour. 

​

High-Rib Mesh is primarily used in construction joint applications abut it is also used to form wall, beam & column surfaces and slabs soffits, where the formed surface will not be seen. 

When High-Rib Mesh is used as vertical formwork, the resulting formwork pressure is significantly less than that developed with traditional forming materials, reducing the overall support requirement.
