Custom braids


As well as standard flat or circular, screening & expansion braids, we also offer a wide range of over braiding using various wire & textiles for protective or aesthetic purposes. Braids range from fine single strand to heavy duty multiple strand braiding to suit wires and cables from 0.8mm to 35mm in diameter.

Looking for a completely unique finish to your product?   Do you know what you want, but it just isn’t available?  We work closely with a local, extremely experienced, UK based braider to offer a completely custom braid service where turnaround times and MOQs are minimal and prices are extremely competitive. We can match existing products or work with you to produce a completely new and unique braid.  Contact us to produce bespoke screening braids for medical or communications cables, shielding or armoured braid for direct burial or exposed applications including sub-sea or oil rig, and protective braids for strengthening or aesthetics of cables and wires including those used in vintage and retro lighting projects, audio and music equipment and interior design projects.
