Description

The global Wire Mesh Tape market size is predicted to grow from US$ 211 million in 2025 to US$ 321 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2026 to 2032.

A Wire Mesh Tape is a flexible metallic mesh tape made by forming fine metal wires into a mesh structure (commonly knitted or woven) and supplying it in roll/strip form. In EMI/EMC use, it is typically a two-ply flattened cylinder (lay-flat knitted mesh) that can be wrapped around cables and harnesses to provide conductive coverage for shielding/grounding, while conforming to irregular shapes.

Upstream, the tape starts from metal wire materials (e.g., Monel, tin-plated copper-clad steel, tinned copper, aluminum, nickel, stainless steel), produced via wire drawing and (when required) plating/cladding, then converted by knitting or weaving into mesh and processed into specified widths, loop spacings/mesh geometries, and wire sizes.

Downstream, Wire Mesh Tape is used mainly for EMC/EMI/RFI screening of electrical power, control, data, and communication cables, for ground/earth continuity in cable joints, and for shielding/grounding/static discharge when wrapping cable bundles. Beyond cable wrap, knitted mesh tapes can also be used for EMI/RFI shielding of electronic enclosures and even as a springy mechanical cushion / gasket filler in industrial sealing constructions.

In 2025, global sales ofWire Mesh Tape reached approximately 50 million meters, with an average global market price of around US$ 4.3/meter. Production capacity varies significantly among manufacturers, with gross profit margins ranging from approximately 25% to 40%.

Demand for wire mesh tape is driven by the hard requirements of EMC compliance and the steadily worsening electromagnetic environment in end systems. Regulations and customer specifications require equipment to meet emission and immunity performance, while harnesses and cables are frequent weak points for radiation leakage and crosstalk. Wire mesh tape provides a conformable, continuous conductive layer that supports shielding coverage as well as grounding and static-discharge paths, making it valuable for EMC/RFI screening of power, control, data, and communication cables and for earth-continuity applications in cable joints.

Competition is increasingly about optimizing the “material–structure–installation” package rather than offering a single material. Knitted mesh tapes are commonly supplied as a flattened, two-ply tubular construction designed for flexibility and easy field wrapping; overlapped wrapping is often recommended to improve continuity and effective coverage. As high-speed interconnects, switching power electronics, and electrified drivetrains proliferate, engineers prioritize repeatable shielding performance on complex surfaces, branched harnesses, and termination areas—pushing suppliers to strengthen capabilities in material selection (e.g., tinned copper, Monel, stainless steel) and application guidance.

On the supply side, defensibility comes from process consistency and delivery reliability: controlled wire/mesh geometry, lot traceability, and engineering support aligned with customer EMC validation workflows. Metal price volatility amplifies the importance of cost management, and manufacturers with integrated wire processing, knitting/weaving, and custom slitting are better positioned to build stickiness in higher-reliability applications. Overall, the market expands as electronic systems become more complex, with incremental growth skewing toward high-reliability and high-frequency use cases.
