Weldedwire mesh fence is a steel fence consisting of wire strands electrically welded together to form a high strength mesh. The fencing is available in two formats: rolled mesh and rigid mesh. Over the last 30 years rigid mesh fencing has become the system of choice for demarcation across the UK, Europe and Australia.
The rigid mesh system has proven popular, and is now a first choice on many types of projects including construction, civil, utilities and temporary works.
Welded wire mesh fences are used predominantly as high security barriers where visibility through the fence is necessary or desirable. It is also used for animal enclosures in zoos.[1]
The longest stretch of rigid mesh fencing in the UK is on the Norton Bridge Flyover, with a continuous fence of 5.5 km.
