Extruded netting is distinct from woven and nonwoven materials. It features greater dimensional stability and rigidity because the joint structure is 'welded' together. Extruded netting is produced in both diamond (bi-planar) and square (mono-planar) configurations. Both configurations are produced in rolls and made available in bulk rolls or cut sizes. The square mesh configuration is also produced in rigid tubular form.

Polypropylene is a common resin in filtration applications due to its inert nature and regulatory approval for both food contact and pharmaceutical applications.


The square configuration is used to add integrity to the media and is used as a pleat support or as a pre-filter in normal flow applications. Square mesh gives consistent quality to the filter. The design of the netting provides for varying heights of the strands, creating the channel for fluids or air to flow.

In disk filters, small aperture extruded netting is used to create a separation between layers of filter media, ensuring the filtration stream has adequate exposure to the filter medium. More open aperture netting is used in air filtration panels to physically support the filter medium and as face plates to protect the filter media. Heavier-weight, large aperture netting products are often used as backers in sewn filter fabrics for a wide variety of industrial filtration applications. Wherever, and however, filter media requires support, a plastic netting product can help ensure its performance.
