company news about Wire Mesh Sleeves Market Booms as EV & 5G Demand Surges

The global wire mesh sleeves market, dominated by knitted mesh, is projected to grow from USD 324 million (2026) to USD 472 million (2034) at 6.6% CAGR, driven by EVs and 5G infrastructure. Knitted mesh sleeves, preferred over braided types for flexibility and cost-effectiveness, provide EMI shielding for EV wiring harnesses and 5G base station cables. Copper-clad steel knitted mesh leads the segment, balancing conductivity and durability. TE Connectivity and KnitMesh Technologies are key players, expanding production to meet demand from automotive and telecom sectors. The shift toward lightweight shielding solutions will further accelerate adoption, as knitted mesh is 20% lighter than braided alternatives.
