BAU 2019 | No. 1 meeting point for international visitors from the building industry

BAU is the world’s leading fair for architecture, materials and systems. 2.250 exhibitors from 45 countries presented their latest products and solutions in the construction industry to 250.000 visitors from Germany and abroad.

At two booths, alphamesh presented their ring and scale mesh as well as fabric products used for facades and interior design. Special emphasis was put on the product’s high-quality and aesthetic appearance as they are mainly used in the architectural and design-oriented field.

„Fascination in dimension“ was impressively demonstrated at the booth by the motor-driven ring and scale mesh veils, which were hanging high up in the air. Here, the visitors were also able to witness the functionality and safety standards of alphamesh’s electric night-closure veils. On the walls of the booth, the visual presentation of alphamesh’s metal woven fabrics showed that there are almost no limits to creativity in this field.

The booth’s crowd-puller proved to be a light object designed by Frédéric Hofmann and manufactured by Metallover (Switzerland). Inside the bronze-coloured ring mesh lamp an intertwined lighting element wound itself towards the hall roof – „alphamesh meets art“ in its pure form.

A further highlight awaited the visitors at the booth of Network Textile Architecture, an expert group specialised in lightweight construction. As youngest member of this group, alphamesh presented their fabric „SEDA“, which was awarded with the steel innovation prize in 2018. At first sight, SEDA visually and haptically reminds of a silk fabric, but truly consists of woven wires of 0,05 mm diameter.

Alphamesh would like to thank all those who made these great trade fair days in Munich possible. Special thanks to the many visitors for their interest in our booths and products.
