copper wire mesh
Copper and its alloys have been used for thousands of years, so it is no surprise it is a highly demanded option within the wire mesh industry. Copper wire mesh is ductile, malleable and has high thermal and electrical conductivity. As a result, it is popularly used as RFI shielding, in Faraday Cages, in roofing, in HVAC and in numerous electrical-based applications.
Copper wire mesh is durable in many types of atmospheres. Although it is softer than a similar stainless steel wire mesh, it is also resistant to atmospheric corrosion but attacked by oxidizing agents such as nitric acid, ferric chloride, cyanides, and ammonia acid compounds. STD's copper wire mesh is woven to the industry standard, ASTM E-2016-11, is 99.9% pure copper and, when exposed to the atmosphere, will naturally develop a thin green layer, known as patina.
Copper wire mesh’s unique color makes it a very popular option for many different types of users, including designers, artists, architects and home owners. Home owners and designers opt for copper woven wire mesh for residential projects including gutter guards, soffit screens, insect screen, fireplace screen, or even custom manufactured infill panels or decorative wall panels. Sculptors, wood workers, metal artisans and architects also prefer copper mesh because of its remarkable dark amber-red color and its broad appeal to a wide audience.

Phosphor bronze wire mesh (with rose gold color)
Bronze is a metal alloy containing a blend primarily of Copper with Tin as an additive. The most common bronze alloy used in metal mesh manufacture is C220 “Commercial Bronze”.The unmistakable bright caramel colour will darken naturally over time or it can be chemically darkened by a metal finisher to speed up the process. As with all metals, finishing Bronze to a specific color or characteristic is an art form and should be done through consulting an experienced metal finisher..
Bronze Wire mesh in Architectural applications:
Bronze wire is drawn bright and exhibits a caramel like colour. Considered a “Living Finish”, the natural color change does occur quickly and depending on the environmental conditions, the end color will vary. In general, under exterior conditions in the presence of salt, moisture, and sunlight, Bronze will transition from bright to shades brown patina. Because of the enormous range of Bronze’s natural colors experienced through weathering, there are a number of coatings or chemicals that can be used to either speed up or slow down the process. Finishing bronze to the desired color is an art and should be done through consulting an experienced metal finisher.
Considerations when specifying Bronze wire mesh for Architectural applications:
When bronze metal mesh is manufactured it is classed as “Bright” but is considered “Bare”. This means that the bronze wire will almost immediately be susceptible to color changes due to tarnishing. Mesh Warehouse cannot guarantee the color consistency by the time it arrives to its final installation point. A chemical or physical removal of the tarnish will be required prior to a clear coat application if the desired final “Bright” finish is to be maintained
