Applications

Industries we serve

SMI knitted wire mesh products are used across South African industry — wherever gas–liquid separation, filtration, EMI shielding or custom mesh fabrication is required.

Oil & Gas

Demister pads, scrubber internals and coalescer mesh for upstream and downstream operations — separating liquids from gas in separators, slug catchers and distillation columns.

Food & Beverage

Stainless steel knitted mesh for sanitary filtration, vapour separation in evaporators, and mist elimination on cooking, brewing and drying lines.

Chemical Processing

Mesh demisters and filters for reactors, columns and scrubbers in highly corrosive service — including monel and PTFE constructions.

HVAC & Air Handling

Compressed mesh panel filters for industrial air handling, oil-mist collectors and exhaust pre-filtration.

Automotive

Muffler packing, engine breathers, exhaust gaskets and crankcase mist elimination components.

Electronics

EMI/RFI shielding mesh tape and gaskets for cable assemblies, enclosures and sensitive electronic equipment.

Construction

Mesh used in ventilation, sound attenuation and protective screening applications.

Water & Wastewater

Demister pads and mesh internals for evaporators, strippers and odour-control scrubbers.

Mining & Metals

Electrowinning and electrorefining mesh for copper, zinc and precious-metal recovery cells.

Power Generation

Mist elimination on steam separators, lube-oil reservoir breathers and turbine inlet filtration.
