The Western Group

From our origins more than eighty years ago as a local maker of residential fencing on the east side of Portland, Oregon, The Western Group has grown to become a leading manufacturer of wire mesh and perforated plate in North America. We now have eleven production facilities across the United States and Canada, so we’re rarely far from any job. And although much of our original growth came from supplying the mining and processing industries in the post-WWII era, the modern Tech Mesh line of products and our design-focused Tech Mesh team have opened a world of possibilities for architects, landscape architects, planners and contractors. We emphasize sustainability in all we do, using materials that are greater than 90% recycled and that are 100% recyclable. The Western Group can help you realize your creative vision for architectural mesh, expanded metal and perforated plate. With our products, a plain exterior becomes modern and vibrant; a neutral interior becomes sleek and refined. Natural sunlight is introduced into spaces where desired and sun shading shields where required. Maintaining security is possible without sacrificing transparency or natural airflow. The Western Group’s in-house team of architecturally-trained designers, engineers and project managers focuses on helping our clients achieve their vision on every project. From early conceptual brainstorming and cost analysis to shop drawings and product delivery, we are here each step of the way. If needed, we can assist with LEED certification documents and can even suggest plantings for our popular Living Screen fencing and cladding system. We pride ourselves on our ability to find customized solutions for tough problems: at TWG, “standard” is a word rarely used. “Open to Your Ideas” isn’t merely a catch phrase, it’s the reason we’re here.
