FAQs

What is galvanised EML used for?

Galvanised Expanded Metal Lath (EML) is used to create a solid base for plaster, render, or other finishes. It reinforces the surface and improves adhesion, helping to prevent cracks and uneven finishes.

Can galvanised EML be used outdoors?

Yes, it can be used externally thanks to its galvanised coating, which provides corrosion resistance. However, for coastal or high-moisture environments, stainless steel alternatives are recommended for maximum longevity.

How is EML installed?

The mesh can be fixed directly to substrates using nails, screws, or wire ties at regular intervals. It should be overlapped slightly between sheets to ensure consistent coverage and prevent cracking at joints.

Roof Tiles & Fittings:
