The Expanded Metal Company is committed to maintaining an effective environmental management system and holds BS EN ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Standards certification.

We have invested heavily in our 25,000 sqm site in Hartlepool UK to reduce our carbon footprint. This has included replacing existing lighting with a more energy-efficient LED lighting system and improving insulation throughout our site.

Expanded metal mesh is recyclable and as the process involves slitting and stretching material to create holes rather than punching it out, this means that there is far less wasted raw material when compared to processes such as perforation.
