Quality Control

Reinforcing mesh is produced to highest quality standards and complies with BS 4483 . Thorough testing of wire strength, welds and aperture sizes is continuously performed at all stages of the manufacturing process. Final inspections ensure that highest standards are maintained.

Standard Sizes

Reinforcing mesh is available in rolls (60m x 2,4m) and sheets (6m x 2,4m), manufactured according to standard sizes. Wire diameters vary from 3,55mm to 12mm. Mesh aperture can be as small as 100mm x 100mm. However Kosto Ltd (Mauritius) trades only with A142 (6mm), A252 (8mm) and A393 (10mm) complying with BS 4483:1985 as local requirements.
