RETHINK WIRE CLOTH

Insights for Aggregate Producers

What if the wire cloth you’ve always trusted is holding back more production than you realize?

For over a century, wire cloth has been the default choice for aggregate producers, but today’s operations look nothing like they did twenty years ago. As production demands rise, traditional wire cloth can quietly work against your goals, cutting screening efficiency by 15–30%, wasting valuable open area, and driving up costs over time.

This brief exposes the challenges most producers overlook, and shows how modern modular media enables aggregate producers to maintain wire-cloth-level throughput with 3× the life.

"We’d get one hole in the feed zone and have to change the entire screen, even though 75% of it was still in good shape. That $500 screen instantly became scrap, and every replacement meant one to three hours of downtime."

Victor Giordano, assistant manager at Vicdom Sand & Gravel
