Our products
Today, our wire meshes are used in a wide variety of different sectors and fields. Our products are used in electrical technology and mechanical engineering, in screen printing and in the chemical and medical technology sector and many more.
Architectural Wiremesh
Architectural mesh from Weisse & Eschrich offers functionality combined with unpretentious elegance. There are (almost) no limits in satisfying our customer needs.
Wire Mesh
Wire mesh from Weisse & Eschrich is produced from steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous or synthetic wires – from fine (Ø 0,018 mm) to rough (Ø 5 mm) and up to weaving widths of 3400 mm.
FILTER AND FILTERELEMENTS
The Weisse & Eschrich high-class meshes are used as classical filter mediums due to their robustness, corrosion and heat resistance as well as their sturdy and consistent mesh and pores. This guarantees perfect filter fineness and best water/air flow rates.
WIRE SCREENS
A very special sector of the Weisse & Eschrich portfolio are wire screens for sieving machines. These are made of different materials with various dimensions and weaves, plus a huge number of screen hooks for different applications. (W&E standard hook or/and special forms.)
WAVE GRID / CRIMPED WIRE MESH
– wave grid form C or crimped mesh form D Crimped wire mesh from Weisse & Eschrich meets highest demands in terms of quality and sturdiness. Only modern looms are able to weave steel wires up to Ø 5 mm thick to a faultless mesh.
HEAT TREATMENT
Weisse & Eschrich has developed different heat resistant steel and alloy meshes for the specific needs of heat treatment processes such as hardening or coating. Those heat proof materials enable the manufacturing of precise and low warpage charging systems (e.g. charging-baskets for heat treatment).
Company Management
and History
Initially Bernhard Weisse started his enterprise as a wire trading company in 1914.
Only a short time later the first mechanical loom started running – this was the starting point for Weisse & Eschrich wire mesh. Due to the exceptional high quality and dependability from the start, demand was constantly rising.

A brief weaving lesson
According to the demands of our customers we use every weavable metal and synthetic wires with diameters ranging from 0,018 mm up to 5 mm.
Mesh size / Fineness of filtration:
Mesh size (aperture) of wire cloth between 0,02 mm and 20,0 mm (woven wire mesh) and 6 – 200 mm (crimped wire mesh)
Dutch weave with a fineness of filtration of 5 μm to 350 μm
Width of wire mesh rolls:
8 mm — 3.400 mm
This results in a wide range of different mesh types, which is topped off by the offer of custom-made products for our clients.
- THE PLAIN WEAVE / SQUARE MESH
The Plain Weave / Square Mesh is characterized by extremely precise mesh sizes. Weft wires are wound over and under the warp wires alternately in a constant pattern. The characteristics of this weave can be modified for special requirements. - RECTANGULAR MESH – OBLONG / BROAD
The most common mesh ratio is 1 : 3 and if the ratio is reversed, the mesh is known as broad mesh. This mesh is, for example, used for vibrating sieving screens. - TWILLED WEAVE
This type of weave is suitable where there is a need for relatively small mesh sizes and strong wires. The special form of herringbone twill was created to compensate for the diagonal movement of the weave. Suitable as a lining weave. - TWILLED WEAVE, 5-BONDED
A special weave type for drain filters with good flow rate. Every fifth wire goes over and under alternately and creates a smooth surface on one side. This weave type has the advantage of being quick and easy to clean. - PLAIN DUTCH WEAVE
The warp wires in this weave are always stronger than the weft wires. The so called “zero mesh” is created by positioning the weft wires as closely together as possible. The specific benefits are good flow rate and even openings. - DUTCH TWILLED WEAVE
This process involves forcing the weft wires together during weaving. This kind of mesh has double the number of weft wires compared with the plain Dutch weave, providing a particularly smooth surface for ultra-fine filtration. - REVERSE DUTCH WEAVE
The weft wires are significantly thicker than the warp wires. As the bulk of the wires are located in the warp, this weave type is often referred to as the reverse of plain Dutch weave. This weave is characterized by good stability and flow rate. - WAVE GRID WIRE MESH FORM C
Crimped wires are used in both directions and combined to create a robust wire screen with a stable form and surface. Suitable as protective screens for fences, gates and partitions for rack shelving systems. We manufacture this mesh types as wave grid (form C) or crimped (form D) - CRIMPED WIRE MESH FORM D / D
Our crimped mesh form D / D fulfil highest standard in terms of quality and stability. Only with modern machines wires with the diameter of 5 mm can be weaved faultlessly. For the manufacturing steel wires are pre-crimped. Due this profile the wires can be weaved (without welding) as a very robust mesh. There is a range of mesh with aperture 6 up to 100 mm. Wire thickness is up to Ø 5 mm. Crimped wire mesh is mainly used for protection safety guards, gates but also tin terms of baskets (heat-treatment, galvanizing, etc.) - CRIMPED WIRE MESH FORM E
Like Form D / D , with the difference that crossing points of warp and weft wires lie in plane position at the intersection points. This formation generates grid with one plane bottom side. - WELDED SCREENS
Similar to reinforced meshes, the horizontal wires (roll width) joined together with vertical wires (roll length) by spot welding. These constant connection points ensure a high performance stability.

Quality Control and Quality Assurance
„The weaver determines the cloth!“
We manufacture on modern computer-controlled machines, using best materials and ideal working conditions.
But in the end it is the human being that has the determining influence upon the quality of the finished product.
Only the optimal combination of the worker and the machine empowers us to reach and surpass our quality claims.
Because of this, we always invest in both: the advanced training of our employees and the constant modernization of our machines. That way we keep our innovative capacity to the fore.
We work certified!
