Engineered Solutions

With our roots in wire mesh and design, Gerard Daniel has been evolving as an Engineering-led organization in the filtration and separation industry for over 70 years. Whether you have a build-to-print requirement or a full design project, our experienced engineers will work with you to develop and produce the optimum strainer-filter separation solution you need to supply your production line.

Build to Print

Our experienced build-to-print team of mechanical engineering experts will provide you with a quick turnaround quote for a drawing of the strainer or filtration components you identify. We follow our proven (and scalable) steps:

Collaboration – How we go above and beyond: Our engineers will review your drawing for manufacturability and the lowest cost of supply. We may work with you to suggest wire mesh design changes or material alternates that may improve the performance or lower the total cost to manufacture and therefore increase your bottom line.


Collaborative Engineered Design

As an Engineering-led organization, we find the best solution is to work with our OEM customers to collaborate on their wire mesh filtration product development projects before the final design prints are completed. Our experienced engineers are able to work with you, not only to meet your functional requirements, but also to recommend design alterations to improve manufacturability, and potentially by consolidating your supply chain activities into a single source, both of which can yield a lower cost of manufacture with no sacrifice to design or performance. We will concentrate on the following:

Focus AreaParametersOutcome
Filtration MediaSelect material, weave, alloy, specifications, heat treatment, coatingsMedia selected delivers the required performance
Component DesignConsider supporting media, end caps, housingOther filtration components determined and sourced
Manufacturing ProcessDesign lends itself to easy manufacture?Produced at the lowest cost of manufacture
Quality ControlDetermine parameters and frequency of measurementHigh quality, repeatable components, and assembly

As a primary wire mesh manufacturer serving filtration OEMs the world over, you can benefit from Gerard Daniel’s experience helping our customers develop thousands of products by engaging with our engineered filtration solutions team.


Not only do we have the broadest stock inventory of filtration-grade micron wire mesh in North America, including 10-micron mesh weaves that perform well versus fiber or multi-layer materials, we are also prepared to apply our considerable secondary operations and staff resources to ensure your finished products are delivered just-in-time or scheduled for routine shipment via our Customer Replenishment System.


Our goal is to use our strengths in global sourcing, expertise in filtration media, capabilities to manufacture, and experience in supply chain management to provide you with a quality, repeatable solution direct to your production line at the lowest cost of ownership.
