Circle Mesh by Banker Wire Wins Product Innovation Award

MUKWONAGO, WI…Banker Wire has received a Product Innovation Award from Architectural Products magazine. A panel of architects and product specifiers selected Banker Wire’s Circle Mesh as a winning product from almost 400 entries in the annual contest.

With Circle Mesh, Banker Wire became the first manufacturer to mass-produce woven metal fabric with circular patterns. Circle Mesh applies the durability, versatility and aesthetic appeal of architectural mesh to new circular weaves, far surpassing circle patterns created by perforated metal. Additionally, the weaving process of architectural mesh, including Circle Mesh, produces very little scrap, compared to the process of perforating metal.  

“We are honored that the architectural industry has recognized this innovative product with an award,” says Harrison Horan, Vice President of Marketing at Banker Wire. “Circle Mesh reflects Banker Wire’s commitment to pioneering new forms of architectural mesh.”

The Product Innovation Awards program honors the development and refinement of buildings-related products. Based on technical information, a panel of 50 independent industry professionals chose products, including Circle Mesh, that embody ingenuity in the built environment.

“Building on the success of last year’s inaugural program, our second edition of the awards proves commercial building manufacturers are committed to, and are working arduously toward, delivering more sustainable products, as well as products that deliver better performance, life and affordability,” says Jim Crockett, Editorial Director of Architectural Products magazine.

Circle Mesh, introduced in January 2013, will be recognized as an awards winner in the November issue of Architectural Products magazine.
