Rhomb

Rhomb Expanded Metal

Rhomb expanded metal is the most commonly used type of sheet mesh, featuring a diamond-shaped opening that combines lightness, transparency, and durability. It is widely used in both architectural and industrial applications. 

The material is produced by cutting and stretching a metal sheet into a continuous structure without material waste. The rhomb pattern allows efficient airflow and light transmission while creating a dynamic surface appearance that changes depending on the viewing angle. With a wide range of sizes and materials available, it offers flexible solutions for facades, protective structures, and interior design.   

Questions and answers

What does rhomb expanded metal mean?

It refers to expanded metal with a diamond-shaped opening, created by cutting and stretching metal sheets. 

Why is it the most common type?

It offers a balanced combination of transparency, durability, and visual appeal across many applications. 

Where can it be used?

Typical uses include facades, railings, protective structures, industrial applications, and interior design. 

Does it allow airflow and light?

Yes. The open structure provides good ventilation and light transmission. 

What are the benefits of the manufacturing method?

It produces a continuous structure without material waste and does not require welding. 

Can the appearance be customized?

Yes. Mesh size, material, and surface treatment influence both performance and aesthetics. 

Does the viewing angle matter?

Yes. The mesh can appear more open or closed depending on the angle, making it useful as a visual screen.
