HISTORY OF WIRE WEAVING
FOR SCREEN PRINTING

The ability to expertly weave stainless steel wire for screen printing’s closest tolerance results from a long experience. Founded in 1887, Haver & Boecker has more than a century of weaving experience – and a history of intensive research and development. As early as 1902, H&B was already weaving wire cloth in mesh counts as fine as 250. In the 1950’s follows the invention of a process that revolutionized the stainless steel screen. This process was the calendering of wire screen mesh to provide unprecedented ink deposit control. Today Haver & Boecker offers a wide range of calendered wire mesh.

Throughout its history, Haver & Boecker’s manufacturing process has consistently surpassed international quality standards (ISO 9000 – 9004 and 9044-9045). With input from screen printers around the world, our research team has developed measuring and test procedures to perfect each phase of production. Our tight tolerances, from the selection of the wire to the final inspection of each roll we deliver, guarantee reliability. So you can count on the integrity of the wire diameter, aperture width, and cloth thickness.

Other Applications for Haver Wire Cloth

The combination of these benefits makes Haver wire cloth perfect for applications where registration, controlled ink deposits and color uniformity are critical. And for the most demanding applications and finest detail, there is our Calendering CT Foil Mesh.
