Welded Wire Fabric – What It Is and Why You Should Consider a Modern Alternative

Welded Wire Fabric – Time for a Smarter Alternative

Still using welded wire fabric for concrete reinforcement? While it's been the industry standard for decades, steel mesh is heavy, prone to corrosion, and requires cutting tools.

At Trokotex, we offer a future-ready alternative: composite reinforcement mesh (FRP/GRP) – rust-proof, lightweight, and just as strong, with none of the downsides of traditional steel.

🔍 Welded Wire Fabric vs Composite Mesh

• 🔸 Steel WWF – reliable but heavy, corrosive, and harder to handle on site.
• 🔸 Composite Mesh – weighs 5x less, never rusts, and can be cut with hand tools.
• 🔸 Cost over time – composite saves on transport, labor, and corrosion maintenance.

🧱 Why Choose Composite Mesh Over WWF?

• ✔️ No rust, no corrosion – perfect for humid and chemical-prone environments.
• ✔️ Lightweight and easy to handle – reduce labor effort and speed up installation.
• ✔️ Same strength, better flexibility – meets engineering standards with improved workability.
• ✔️ No power tools needed – cut with scissors or shears.

📦 Available Mesh Formats & Pricing

• 🟩 3mm – 100x100 mm – 50m² roll: 72,51 €
• 🟩 3mm – 50x50 mm – 50m² roll: 158,49 €

💡 Denser spacing improves load-bearing capacity – ideal for slabs, footings, and commercial flooring.
