Product • By VIA GmbH • VIA Cement Tiles

VIA Cement Tiles

Our cement tiles captivate through their beautiful visual and haptic appearance. The architects of the past centuries already knew: with their pattern diversity, the slightly iridescent colors and their pleasant silky feel cement tiles create a very special living atmosphere. More

Ornamental Center

The history and philosophy of ornament, with their multiplicity of fact and their deep social implications, are subjects so vast that they can only be approached by the aid of a series of assumptions. The idea of combining several functions in one piece of building is not unusual today when living quarters are comparatively small and space at a premium. More

SJD-4 - Woven Wire Mesh

The SJD-4 promotes the concept of "Variable Pitch" in the Banker Wire manufacturing process. With a given crimp "Pitch" (wire pocket), you, the designer can create the frequency of the weave. Your frequency called out, controls the visual pattern along with the screen density so that a perfect mesh is custom created to suit appearance as well as function. Concept can be applied to many other weave styles. As shown, the SJD-4 variable pitch between the warp wires creates a gradient effect, transitioning from a tightly-spaced, nearly opaque weave to an open, transparent fabric. Larger scale is suitable for exteriors and facades as well as interiors. Crimp Style: TSPLZ Percent Open: Variable Lbs/SqFt: Variable Available Mater... More

L-441 - Woven Wire Mesh

Banker Wire L-441 is a small scale Lock crimp wire mesh pattern that can be woven in a wide range of alloys available. This lighter scale pattern is great for interior spaces or for applications looking for a delicate look. As with all of Banker Wire products, the scale of the wire mesh can be adjusted to suit the look and function required. Please call for more information. Percent Open: 70.6% Overall Thickness: 0.160" Aspect Ratio: 1.00 : 1 Crimp Style: LCLC Weight (lbs/sqft): 0.830 Available Materials: Aluminum, Copper, Brass, Bronze, Mild Steel, Pre-Galvanized, Stainless Steel More

Product • By Banker Wire • DF-1 - Woven Wire Mesh

DF-1 - Woven Wire Mesh

Bright embossing technology applied to traditional flat top crimp style produces a beautifully faceted cladding product. Because the facets only deviate slightly from the plane of the fabric, very interesting reflective patterns develop at a near-perpendicular viewing perspective. This is an asymmetric fabric. It should be noted that architectural fabrics produced from very smooth diamond drawn wires will, at times, exhibit subtle striations of varying degrees of light and dark. These are not defects, but rather, part of the natural beauty of the material. In order to achieve absolute color uniformity, post weaving treatments such as pickling and electro-polishing must be applied. Overall Thickness: 0.195"... More

Product • By Banker Wire • 3DZ-151 - Woven Wire Mesh

3DZ-151 - Woven Wire Mesh

3DZ-151 is slightly more open than DF-6 and woven on the loom in the same manner. This concept of a three dimensional weave provides a percent opening that constantly varies as the angle of viewing changes. There is also an increased rigidity due to the balance of wires (front and back) within the weave. Please call for your sample today. Percent Open: 32.5% Overall Thickness: 0.160" Aspect Ratio: 7.00 : 1 Crimp Style: 3DZ Weight (lbs/sqft): 1.570 Available Materials: Stainless Steel Bronze More

Product • By Banker Wire • M22-43 - Woven Wire Mesh

M22-43 - Woven Wire Mesh

A new and exciting twin wire weave where both wires share the same pocket. A flared out diamond shaped facet at the intersections creates the unique detail. Percent Open: 46.3% Overall Thickness: 0.150" Aspect Ratio: 1.00 : 1 Crimp Style: 2E2E Weight (lbs/sqft): 2.000 Available Materials: Bronze, Stainless Steel More
