ExMesh Engineering, a leading metal fabrication specialist, is set for rapid expansion this year following a £500,000 investment. It will soon embark on a recruitment drive to support the introduction of an extensive range of new services to meet the growing demands of its customers.
As a division of The Expanded Metal Company, a trusted name in metal solutions since 1889, ExMesh Engineering will use this heritage as a springboard for further growth. Well known for its high-quality expanded metal perimeter fencing, the company can now offer complete metal fabrication solutions – anything from metal, through intricate custom designs to large-scale production runs.
Ryan Pinder, ExMesh operations manager and head of CI, said: “To support our bold new direction, we have made substantial investments in ‘state of the art’ machinery, which will enable us to deliver unparalleled precision, flexibility, and capacity in our metal fabrication processes. New services include a top-of-the-line laser cutter which can cut carbon steel, mild steel, stainless steel, and aluminium with extreme accuracy and efficiency, perfect for complex and large-scale projects.
“An advanced press brake allows us to handle intricate metal bending and folding tasks, ensuring we can meet even the most demanding specifications alongside our award-winning cobot welding system, which offers consistent, high quality welding, enabling us to handle projects requiring precision and repeatability at scale. We are very proud to be investing and building on the skills and heritage that is grounded in Teesside.”
With its experienced design team, ExMesh Engineering will support numerous customers in a variety of industrial sectors, including construction, architectural, industrial, and retail, from the initial concept to the final delivery.
Philip Astley, The Expanded Metal Company’s managing director, said: “This new chapter marks a significant milestone in the evolution of ExMesh Engineering and our group. We are excited to offer our customers more services than ever before, whether they need security solutions or custom metal fabrications.”
