Perforated Metal
Perforated metal panels start with a solid plate material and incorporate holes or openings into the design. Custom multiperforated patterns can transfer any image or graphic to the facade surface. The panels can be flat or formed into various geometries. Panels can be used as sun control screens, as primary façade, as double skin façade, ceilings and roofs. The system is fully designed and engineered to withstand wind loads, while maintaining proper deflection criteria.
