Start with the working context

Mesh opening needs to be considered alongside feed condition, wire construction, wear and the screen-deck interface. Begin with the site condition, intended function, interfaces and any drawings or photos already available. This keeps the first technical discussion tied to the work that has to be completed rather than a product name alone.

Coordinate the system details

For screening mesh selection, confirm the dimensions, material construction, finish, supporting components and access requirements together. These points affect production, packing, delivery and installation, so they should be recorded in the same sourcing brief.

Prepare a clearer inquiry

Share quantity, destination, delivery timing and the information that cannot be assumed on site. A complete first brief makes it easier to compare options, identify missing details and organise a practical supply recommendation.
