Introduction
Expanded Mesh & Metal Products
TMI is a privately owned company, established in 1997 in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates and located
on approximately 850,000 square feet in the Industrial City of Abu Dhabi (ICAD).
Specializes in metal processing and manufacturing of Expanded Metal & Plastering Accessories, Roll Formed Profiles,
Suspended Ceiling Systems, Cable Management Systems, Metal Doors & Frames, Industrial Shelving, Metal Cabinets,
Gratings, Metal Ladders and specialized building material products. We are an ISO 9001, 14001 & 18001 Certified
Company. Our emphasis is on quality products catering to todays competitive and demanding business
environment. By introducing the latest, advanced technologies in our production lines, we ensure that our high
production targets are achieved.
Furthermore, with deep knowledge within our manufacturing system capabilities, our products have achieved a very
high quality standard in this industry. Having earned a reputation as a manufacturer and supplier of quality products,
we fully recognize that constant improvement is a vital requirement for our continued success.
Expanded Metal is a mesh formed from a single piece sheet metal. That sheet of solid metal is slit and stretched with
each stroke of a die which forms a raised diamond pattern. The pattern varies by gauge and type of material and the
size of the diamond. The mesh can be pressure rolled at so that the strands are in the same plane as the sheet.
Expanded Metal products are mainly used for reinforcement purposes and for plaster embracing. In addition, it gives
better finishing and stronger edges, which help increase the life span of any building.
TMI has been supplying mesh and wire products since 1997. We have exported our products throughout the Gulf and
the MENA (Middle East and North Africa) Regions, and are renowned for our service and quality. When you call TMI, you
become our number one priority. Whether your requirements are large or small, our experienced staff members are
committed to meeting your needs accurately and efficiently. Standard products are stocked and distributed from our
ICAD based factory.
TMI offers a complete service to its customers producing customized mesh built to order in small batch quantities or
high volume.

Using galvanized or stainless steel nails (compatible with
bead material), fixed at a maximum of 600mm apart. When
nailing to a solid background, the line of the bead will follow
the line of the background.
2
When beads are used with metal lath backgrounds,
galvanized or stainless steel may be used to secure the
beads in position. Soft galvanized wire or soft stainless
steel wire should be used to match the bead and the lath
materials. All wires should be twisted tightly and the ends
bent away from the finished face of the coating.
3
Pressing dabs of the same material as the undercoat onto
bead. Dabs should be applied at a maximum of 600mm
apart. This method will even out minor irregularities in the
line of the background, although the line of the bead will
tend to generally follow the line of the background.
The most appropriate metal

bead should be chosen to suit the
application, required plaster depth
and the desired finish of the work.

Heavy Rib is used widely in the construction work for joints, stop-end, retaining walls and columns. It creates a strong bond base
for successive pours. Heavy Rib is fixed as permanent formwork. When concrete is poured behind it, the angled tabs of mesh
become embedded. This produces a mechanical key for the adjacent pour. Heavy Rib provides a high degree of control over the
quality of the joint which is as strong in bond and shear as a well prepared scabbled joint.

Block Work Mesh is an anti-crack reinforcement mesh for non-structural use. Block Work reinforcement mesh should be used in
every second course of a wall. Combinations of different widths of reinforcement mesh may be used to suit any wall thickness. It is
also recommended for window and doorframes for stress resistance.
Coil Width in mm and Length in m.
Block Reinforcement - Ladder / Truss Type

Block reinforcement in walls will help to combat wind effect, withstand the loading of material against the wall, control shrinkage,
thermal and settlement effects and enable the wall to span across openings. It is manufactured to customer specifications, which
enables its strength to be used with maximum efficiency.
