Gratings are used in a wide range of industrial applications for purposes such as filtration, separation, support, drainage, and ventilation. The choice of grating depends on the application, environment, and required mechanical or chemical properties. Here are the different types of industrial gratings:
Electro Forged Steel Grating
Ferrograte Electro-Forged Gratings is made of resistance-welding process to create a Rigid Finish to suite the corresponding Environment. The process of manufacturing is done where the Bearing Bars is Resistance-welded at the contact point with the cross bars under a combination of high heat and pressure which is fused together to form a permanent joint. The cross bars provide a high degree of rigidity, yet retain a smooth flat surface for comfortable walking.
Electro-Forged Gratings type is most commonly used compared to all other grating types due to its strength, Durability, cost efficient production and ease of installation. Commonly used in most general Industrial plants as well as Architectural buildings, it has wide applications as Pedestrian Traffic, platforms, safety barriers, drainage covers and ventilation grates Etc.
Press-Locked Grating
Press-locked steel bar gratings is a steel grate with a system of interlocking, perpendicular bars, these gratings are ideal floor platforms used for vehicle movements, Architectural applications such as (grilles, dividers and screens), Industrial Walkway access system, etc.

Slotted channels are structural elements often used in construction, shelving, framing systems, and cable management. They have a U- or C-shaped crosssection with longitudinal slots that allow for easy mounting and adjustment of components. Single (CChannel)
A basic U- or C-shaped channel with one slotted side.
Double (Back-to-Back) Two channels welded together for extra strength.
Double (Face-to-Face) Facing channels joined to form a rectangular box-section.
Half Slot Channel One half of the channel slotted; the other solid for hybrid uses.
In industry, meshes refer to structured frameworks or networks made of interconnected strands, wires, or elements, and are used in various applications across engineering, manufacturing, and design. Meshes can be categorized based on material Type.
Metal Mesh :
- Woven Wire Mesh - made like fabric; used in filtration, sieving.
- Expanded Metal Mesh - cut and stretched to form a diamond pattern; used in walkways, guards.:
- Perforated Metal Mesh - flat sheets with punched holes; used in screens, enclosures.
- Welded Wire Mesh - wires welded at intersections; used in fencing, concrete reinforcement.
Polymer/Plastic Mesh : Used in lightweight filtering, packaging, erosion control, and gardening.Materials: HDPE, PP, PVC, nylon
Fiberglass Mesh: Lightweight, corrosion-resistant; used in construction, especially wall reinforcement and insulation
A decorative hole pattern refers to a design that consists of holes arranged in aesthetically pleasing shapes or sequences, commonly used in metal, plastic, or wood panels. These patterns serve both functional and aesthetic purposes—for ventilation, light filtration, weight reduction, or simply ornamentation..
Applications:
