2. Electroforged grating

The welded pressed grating consists of bearing bars into which twisted square cross bars are pressed and simultaneously welded.

The welding at each intersection point between bearing and cross bars provides exceptional stability and strength.

3. Full grating

The full grating as a variant of the pressed grating is characterized by bearing bars (BB) and cross bars (CB) being of equal height. It is often used as a suspended ceiling or railing infill.

Whichever option you choose, the grating can be designed for barrier-free use with the optionally available safety mesh. 

For gratings, the height and thickness of the bearing bars should be selected to safely support and transfer the expected load. For high load capacities, such as with driveable gratings, a Heavy-duty grating is recommended.
