Zoo mesh is a type of enclosure made from various materials that houses animals in zoos. It's primarily designed for public display and consists of various kinds including stainless steel rope mesh, weld mesh, crimped wire mesh, chain link mesh, and hexagonal wire mesh.
Among these, stainless steel rope zoo mesh, also referred to as stainless steel animal cable mesh, is made from high-quality stainless steel wire rope. Known for its high tensile strength, UV resistance, durability in harsh environments, and resistance to rust and corrosion, it is a preferred choice among many clients.

Aperture Size of the Mesh: Given the same wire diameter, a larger mesh aperture wire rope is typically less expensive than one with a smaller mesh aperture. For instance, a wire diameter of 1.20mm with a mesh aperture of 50mmx50mm will cost more than a 1.20mm wire diameter with a 60mmx60mm mesh aperture, regardless of whether it's a Ferrule Mesh or knotted inter-woven wire rope mesh.
Wire Diameter Size: Assuming a constant mesh aperture, a smaller mesh opening will cost more than a larger one. For example, with a mesh aperture of 50mmx50mm, a stainless steel cable mesh with a 1.20mm diameter will be cheaper than one with a 1.50mm diameter.
Types of Weaving: When wire gauge and mesh aperture are identical, a Stainless Steel Knotted Rope Mesh (or inter-woven wire rope mesh) is pricier than a ferrule type rope mesh. This is because the knotted mesh is manually woven, primarily by women, while a significant portion of the ferrule rope mesh is machine-manufactured.
Surface Treatment: Zoo meshes with a Black Oxide or vinyl coating cost more than those without coating but with the same mesh aperture, wire diameter, and weaving types. The original stainless steel rope mesh is the cheapest option in terms of surface treatment.
Materials: When all other conditions are the same, mesh made from 316 material is pricier than one made from 304 material.

Stainless Steel Wire Rope Zoo Mesh is a revolutionary product that greatly enhances the safety and aesthetic appeal of zoos. This mesh, used as animal enclosures, has dramatically transformed traditional cages, paving the way for a more harmonious coexistence between humans and animals. Stainless steel zoo mesh not only offers a safe and comfortable environment for animals but also ensures visitor safety, while minimizing the risk of injury to animals.
For specification purposes, the Stainless steel rope mesh, when used as zoo rope mesh, adopts the ferruled Mesh model. This model is designed to be stretched to form a 60° angle at both the diamond's apex and base.

Zoo mesh crafted from stainless steel welding is made from superior quality materials like stainless steel 316, SS316L, and SS304L. These materials are welded together using high-quality, low-carbon steel wire which originates from superior hot-rolled wire. The main processes involved in its creation include pickling, galvanizing, and cold drawing, resulting in a mesh surface that's notably bright.
Electro-galvanized wire mesh typically features a zinc layer of 15g/m2, with welded joints that provide solid anti-corrosion and anti-oxidation attributes. Boasting high tensile strength and surface treatment, this mesh is resistant to both acids and alkalis.
Its most common applications span a variety of industries, including external wall insulation systems, concrete pouring, poultry farming, petroleum, chemicals, industrial, construction, tourism, mining, machinery, and export. In particular, the welded mesh aviary panels are widely utilized in various zoo projects, most notably in bird cage construction.

Hexagonal zoo wire mesh, also known as chicken zoo wire mesh, is a type of fencing made from thin wires that can be either galvanized steel or PVC-covered. It's designed with hexagonal holes, similar to the shape of a honeycomb. This kind of fencing is often used in zoos for small birds such as peacocks, lovebirds, cockatiels, budgies, and tiny parakeets.
You can find our chicken zoo wire mesh in different sizes. The holes can be 1 inch, 2 inches, or 3/4 inch wide. The wire itself can range from 16 gauge (which is thicker) to 27 gauge (which is thinner). One of the advantages of this type of fencing is that you can stretch it a bit to fit your specific needs.

Chain link zoo mesh is a fencing material that's crafted from steel wires, either galvanized or PVC-coated for enhanced resistance against rust and corrosion. These wires are vertically arranged and woven in a zig-zag pattern, forming diamond-shaped openings.
Thanks to its durability, affordability, low maintenance, and security, the chain link fence is a crucial element in zoo wire mesh. It is manufactured using heavy steel wire, which makes it as sturdy as a welded mesh panel or steel rope mesh. Besides forming enclosures for animals like tigers, leopards, and lions, chain link wire mesh is increasingly used for security fencing in residential areas, commercial properties, and prisons.
The chain link bird cage wire is as popular as zoo mesh because of several reasons. Firstly, its low cost makes it an attractive alternative to more expensive fencing options like steel rope or welded panel fencing. This cost-effectiveness is especially noticeable when a large quantity of fencing is needed.
Secondly, its durability is exceptional, thanks to the thick zinc or PVC coating that offers superior protection against weather conditions like rain, snow, and frost. Thirdly, its smooth surface provides a safe environment for both animals and visitors, minimizing the risk of injuries. Lastly, the chain link bird cage wire is easy to install and quick to set up, leading to shorter project timelines.
Our Stainless Steel Crimped Wire Mesh is an excellent choice for zoo enclosures, thanks to its robust and resilient qualities. Crafted from high-grade stainless steel wire, it comes in various types, such as 201, 301, 302, 304, 304L, 316, and 316L.
The finished product stands out with a series of exceptional features. It's heat-resistant, acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and wear-resistant, ensuring a long-lasting solution for your zoo enclosure needs. Furthermore, the structure is wide-ranging, providing adaptability to different zoo setups.
The weaving process of our stainless steel crimped wire mesh is unique, involving a preliminary rolling before weaving, bidirectional bending, bidirectional wave separation bending, and unidirectional bending.

Zoo mesh is a critical part of animal enclosure systems used in zoos and animal parks. Different types of zoo mesh include stainless steel rope mesh, weld mesh, crimped wire mesh, chain link mesh, and hexagonal wire mesh, each offering unique benefits. The cost of the mesh varies based on factors like aperture size, wire diameter, weaving type, surface treatment, and material used. Stainless steel rope mesh, in particular, is favored for its high tensile strength, UV resistance, and durability in harsh environments. Hexagonal wire mesh is often used for bird enclosures. Chain link mesh offers versatility, and welded wire mesh, crafted from high-quality materials, is known for its robustness. The type of mesh used depends on the animals housed, environmental conditions, and the budget allocated.
