High quality optics & individual design: Stainless steel parapets make it possible

Architectural wire mesh bestows every parapet with a textile elegance and lightness. When used in connection with suitable backlighting, fascinating light effects can be created thanks to the transparency and reflective nature of the stainless steel surface.

When planning your parapet, you can select from various wire mesh types and different options in the colour scheme to create an individual design, which offer virtually unlimited design options.

Semi-transparency

It all depends upon the viewing angle: it is because HAVER Architectural Mesh creates the effect

being opaque when seen from a side viewing angle
being transparent when seen from a direct viewing angle

For example when looking out from a balcony this allows good transparency looking outwards, while the view from the street level is severely restricted.

Mount parapets: Maximum safety through optimal integration

Using tailor-made fastening solutions, the metal mesh is optimally integrated into a building, for example for railing fillings. This allows you to obtain a high quality and protective enclosure.
