PATENTED DRAINAGE PLANE & METAL LATH SYSTEM FOR ADHERED MASONRY VENEERS
Engineered for use with stucco, thin brick, stone, and other adhered masonry veneers, LathNet™ combines a galvanized expanded metal lath with a structured strand polymer drainage mesh into a single, factory-assembled component. This patented system creates a continuous drainage plane between the lath and the weather-resistant barrier, while significantly increasing ventilation behind the veneer—delivering up to 5× greater airflow compared to traditional setups.
Developed in collaboration with professional masons, LathNet™ streamlines installation by eliminating the need to apply a drainage mat and lath separately. The system conforms to ASTM C847 Size requirements and meets the Masonry Advisory Council recommendation for exterior adhered masonry wall drainage.
