Architectural Mesh
7 reasons to use it for parking garages
Also in the architecture of car parks, wire mesh helps to transform the once bleak and faceless functional buildings into light flooded eventful architecture. Due to the functional and aesthetic characteristics of HAVER Architectural Mesh, it offers versatile fields of applications in the architecture of car parks. Architectural Mesh convinces with its noble optic and meets at the same time the highest standards of safety and stability in indoor and outdoor applications.
1) Natural Ventilation
The transparency of Architectural Mesh allows it to act as a natural ventilation system. By utilizing Architectural Mesh on the façade of parking facilities, you can eliminate the need for costly HVAC systems, which will not only reduce energy costs but also have a positive environmental impact. Additionally, the openness of the mesh allows an abundance of natural light and air to flow through the parking facility, allowing car emissions to be dispersed outside the car park and improving air quality in the space.
2) Sun Protection
From harsh snow to dry desert heat or high winds, Architectural Mesh facades on your parking garage are suitable for any weather conditions. Architectural Mesh offers effective sun protection to car parks. The horizontal wires of the mesh façade act as a light barrier, helping to maintain a comfortable temperature within the parking garage.
3) Fall Protection
Made from high quality stainless steel, Architectural Mesh is incredibly strong, rigid and durable, delivering extra protection from personal injury. As façade cladding, balustrade or guardrail – architectural mesh can be ensured effective fall protection.
4) Unique Aesthetic
HAVER Architectural Mesh can meet your aesthetic and functional needs. With a wide variety of mesh patterns and the ability to paint images onto the mesh itself, your parking garage is made completely custom to your specification and is 100 percent unique to your application. With Architectural Mesh you can create a car park that no longer looks like a typical car park. Media Facades and illuminated mesh facades light up car parks into dynamic and colorful light envelopes and turn them into a place of modern communication. With the transparent media façade IMAGIC WEAVE® facades of parking garages become a medial eye-catcher, which can be used for advertisement.
5) Cost Effective
Architectural Mesh façade panels can be tensioned over the full height of the parking garage. This means that only a solid substructure is required at the top and bottom mounting points of the parking garage. The different levels of the car park require an intermediate tube to absorb horizontal loads. Through this the costs of the substructure and installation are significantly lower compared to framed façade material solutions.
6) Low Maintenance - Easy Installation
HAVER Architectural Mesh comes ready to install with complete and easy-to-follow instructions. Once installed, stainless steel architectural mesh facades require little to no maintenance.
7) Environmental Responsibility
Stainless steel has an average recycled content of at least 60 percent recyclable at end of use. By using Architectural Metal Mesh not only are you getting an individual car park, you are also increasing the sustainability of the building.
