Description
Trench Mesh – Concrete Reinforcement
Our Trench Mesh is a high-strength prefabricated steel reinforcement product, specifically engineered for concrete foundations and ground beams. Manufactured from ribbed steel wire welded into a grid, it significantly increases the tensile strength of concrete, helping to control cracking and distribute loads. Available in various sheet sizes and bar configurations (3-Bar to 6-Bar), it provides a fast, efficient, and code-compliant solution for reinforcing concrete trenches and strip footings.

Why Choose Trench Mesh?
Using trench mesh simplifies and speeds up the construction process compared to manually tying loose rebar. It ensures consistent spacing and positioning of reinforcement, which is critical for structural integrity. This ready-to-install product reduces labour costs, minimises errors, and provides reliable, engineered strength to concrete footings, making it a fundamental component in stable construction.
Primary Applications

Reinforcement for concrete strip footings and trench fills
-
Strengthening ground beams and perimeter beams
-
Use in slab-on-ground foundations and raft slabs
-
Reinforcement in concrete paths, driveways, and hardstands
-
Structural support in retaining wall footings
