Our knitted mesh products are used extensively in the military sector because of their flame and shock resistance, low outgassing and their inherently safety features.

Our knitted wire mesh is ideally suited for Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) and other shielding applications used in guided munitions, antenna systems and other electronic applications. In addition, the products are used for venting and filtration in the engine air intakes of military vehicles and vessels.

Other applications include the sealing of back-shells and connectors in aviation electrical systems, and sound and vibration dampening.  Whether air, ground or sea, KnitMesh products help our defence forces keep us safe.
