Abstract Photography
Custom perforated patterns add a unique and expressive focal point to any project. Solid aluminum perforated panels that are post-fabrication painted are the best choice for durability with a finish that lasts for years to come. Why not perforated coil coat? Because the perforated edges are raw metal, exposed to the elements which creates oxidation and can quickly deteriorate the finish. With post-fabrication finishing, all perforated edges are coated, protected from the elements. Over glazing or as part of a sunshade system, perforated panels offer a reduction in heat transfer to the building’s interior, saving energy. If you’re project requires screening equipment or parking garages, creating a semi-private space or an intricate custom design, custom signage or that wow factor, perforated panels are a great choice. Explore a small sample of patterns here.
