As the UK experiences increasingly frequent periods of warmer weather and greater emphasis is placed on designing climate-resilient buildings, external solar shading is becoming an increasingly important part of façade design. Metalspan expanded mesh combines architectural expression with functional performance, helping buildings respond to changing environmental conditions without compromising aesthetics.

Why specify expanded metal mesh for solar shading?

✔ Reduces solar heat gain by intercepting direct sunlight before it reaches the building envelope.
✔ Supports passive cooling by lowering heat build-up on glazed façades, helping reduce cooling demand during warmer months.
✔ Maintains natural daylight and ventilation, allowing air and diffused light to pass through while providing effective shading.
✔ Improves occupant comfort by helping minimise glare and excessive solar exposure.
✔ Flexible material that can be cut, bent and curved to meet diverse architectural design requirements.
✔ Designed for long-term performance when the appropriate material, finish and installation system are specified for the environment.
✔ Safe & sustainable — Supports passive solar control and potentially reducing cooling(energy)demand. Also, our meshes made with 100% green energy and material is 100% recyclable.
✔ Designed for long-term performance when the appropriate material, finish and installation system are specified for the environment.
✔ Creates a dynamic façade, with light and shadow changing throughout the day to give the building a distinctive architectural character.

Today's façades must do more than look iconic—they must contribute to comfort, energy performance, and long-term resilience.

Expanded metal mesh ceiling installations are one of the most striking ways to define a commercial or hospitality interior.

The 3D geometry means light behaves completely differently from different viewpoints — creating a lively ceiling that shifts as you move through the space.

Why choose expanded metal mesh for ceilings?

✦ Easy access for lighting & utilities
✦ Range of colours/finishes available
✦ Non-combustible substrate, coating or anodising on top
✦ Large mesh panels
✦ Light weight
✦ Creates a more open and spacious feel than conventional solid ceilings.
✦ Mesh design can be choosen from our Metalspan expanded mesh Protech line or Ultralimites line.

Used by designers for: Retail and hospitality ceilings | Atrium solar shading screens | Feature corridor ceilings and more ...

We have over 50 mesh patterns. DM us your project details — we’ll help you select the suitable mesh for your project.

Metalspan RB25 Expanded Mesh Modular Ceiling — with 52% open area, the tightest weave in the range, creating a stronger, more substantial ceiling aesthetic while retaining the character of expanded mesh.

Designed for modern open-plan interiors, RB25 is available in 300 × 600 mm and 600 × 1200 mm standard modular sizes, with custom sizes available on request.

Depending on the viewing angle, the perceived visual openness can reach up to 65%, giving designers flexibility in how the ceiling reads within a space.

✦ Non-combustible metal substrate and mesh throughout
✦ An acoustic mat can be added behind the same modular mesh ceiling panel to enhance acoustic performance. We recommend Freudenberg Soundtex.
✦ Aluminium or galvanised steel
✦ Powder-coated or anodised finishes (Based on the material selected)

RB25 — visual mass without going solid.

At the Sarchio Headquarters in Carpi, Italy, the expanded metal mesh façade, designed by Architect Sebastiano Schenetti, transforms the building into a visual expression of the company’s identity. Inspired by natural leaf motifs, the façade reflects Sarchio’s commitment to healthy, natural products while creating a distinctive and memorable architectural presence. Beyond its visual impact, the Mesh facade delivers solar shading.

As an external solar-shading solution, Metalspan EXPAMESH Expanded Metal Mesh intercepts direct sunlight before it reaches the building envelope, reducing solar heat gain while allowing natural daylight and ventilation to pass through. The result is a brighter, more comfortable indoor environment and a façade that performs as beautifully as it looks.

Metalspan EXPAMESH — where architectural expression meets façade performance.

Our expanded mesh modular ceiling is not an acoustic product by default — and in most open-plan schemes it doesn’t need to be, because the absorption is coming from rafts, baffles, walls and floor.

Where the ceiling itself has to perform, the panel can be backed with an acoustic mat. We’ll specify the build-up alongside your acoustician rather than quote a number that wasn’t tested on this panel.
Honest answer beats a convenient one.

08/09/2026

Metalspan’s Stiltech Mesh Line modular ceiling panels give you the freedom to specify the material that best suits your project — galvanised steel or aluminium. RB55 mesh:

Galvanised Steel
Powder coated · 4.8 kg/m²

Aluminium
Powder coated or anodised · 1.7 kg/m²

Each material brings its own inherent advantages — weight, finish options, cost and structural behaviour — making the choice a project-specific one rather than a universal answer.

The RB55 mesh offers 55% open area as standard, with visual openness of up to 70% depending on viewing angle — ideal for open-plan interiors where light and spatial depth matter.

✦ Modular sizes: 300 × 600mm and 600 × 1200mm
✦ Non-combustible metal substrate and mesh throughout
✦ An acoustic mat can be added behind the same modular mesh ceiling panel to enhance acoustic performance. We recommend Freudenberg Soundtex.
✦ Custom sizes available on request

The Metalspan expanded mesh modular ceilings with Stiltech Mesh Line gives you the flexibility to decide exactly how open your ceiling is — from 15% to 60% open area — across modular panel sizes of 300 × 600mm and 600 × 1200mm.

At the open end of the range sits RB55 — 60% open area, the most transparent mesh ceiling panel we offer. Ideal for open-plan offices, retail and hospitality interiors where light, depth and spatial continuity matter.

Need acoustic performance too? Add an optional 10mm acoustic mat for a full acoustic ceiling solution.

✦ PPC galvanised steel · Powder-coated or anodised aluminium
✦ Non-combustible metal substrate and mesh throughout
✦ Custom sizes available on request
✦ For acoustic performance, we recommend the Soundtex acoustic mat by Freudenberg.

The choice is yours, based on your design and technical objectives.
