Why buyers choose MAISHI

Uniform apertures

Monofilament mesh woven on Sulzer looms. Each thread is a single smooth filament, so openings stay consistent and the mesh does not shed fibres.

Full range

Nylon plain weave from 10 to 356 mesh/inch and twill weave down to 5 µm. Polyester in more than 100 constructions.

Converted to your size

Slit strips, cut pieces and custom widths, with flexible roll lengths for trial orders. Every order is fully inspected before shipment.

Experienced exporter

More than 30 years in wire mesh, with products exported to over 95 countries.

From warp to packed roll

Monofilament bobbins on the warping creel — Warping: monofilament bobbins on the creel

Operator checking mesh on the loom — Weaving: operator checks the cloth on the loom

Mesh roll on the light-table inspection machine — Inspection: every roll passes the light table

MAISHI mesh rolls packed and labelled for export — Packing: labelled rolls ready for export

Nylon or polyester?

Condition	Choose polyester (PET)	Choose nylon (PA)
Medium	Acids, oxidisers	Alkalis, oils, fuels, solvents
Moisture	Wet or humid use; absorbs 0.4 % moisture, stays dimensionally stable	Absorbs 3.5 – 4 % moisture; best where tension loss is not critical
Mechanical	High tension, low elongation	Abrasion, repeated flexing, elastic recovery
Cost	Lower	Higher

How to read our specifications

Mesh count: threads per inch (mesh) or per cm (T). 77T = 196 mesh.
Opening (aperture): clear distance between adjacent threads, in µm. Nominal opening = 10000 ÷ T − thread diameter.
Open area: share of the surface that is open. Open area = (w ÷ (w + d))² × 100 %.
Thread diameter: nominal value before weaving. Woven threads flatten slightly, so measured openings are usually a few percent smaller than nominal.
