Metal lath is used as a base reinforcement layer for plaster and render on uneven or non-bonding surfaces like brick, RCC, or drywall. It improves crack resistance and ensures better bonding.
Expanded metal lath is a flat mesh sheet with diamond openings. Rib lath includes raised ribs for added strength and is better suited for ceilings, soffits, and wide-span plaster applications.
Yes. Our galvanized and stainless steel options are specifically designed for UAE’s extreme conditions. For external facades, we recommend Z275 GI or SS304/316 for better corrosion resistance.
Absolutely. We’re a leading metal lath supplier in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, and we also export to Qatar, Oman, and Saudi Arabia from our UAE facilities.
