Apertura

Perforated metal is created by punching or drilling patterns of holes into sheets of metal.

What Makes It Special

Apertura panels offer limitless design possibilities combining customizable apertures and precise patterns that can adapt to each project’s unique aesthetic and functional needs. With variable apertures that manage sunlight and airflow, Apertura Panels create an optimized environment by controlling light entry and acting as wind breaks. The panels feature a network of meticulously placed shapes that can be aligned, rotated, or varied in size to achieve unique shading effects and intricate visual textures. Engineered with structural integrity in mind, Apertura Panels maintain strength and stiffness through a continuous network design, ensuring durability even with complex patterns. This system allows architects to create extraordinary, project-specific facades that balance beauty and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Apertura panels are precision-perforated metal panels with bent perforations, designed to create dynamic visual effects by manipulating light, shadow, and airflow while maintaining structural integrity.

  • Bent perforations for depth and texture – Unlike traditional perforated panels, Apertura panels feature angled or bent perforations that enhance the play of light and shadow.
  • Customizable patterns – Tailored perforation designs to match architectural aesthetics.
  • Optimized functionality – Provides shading, ventilation, and privacy while maintaining openness.

We primarily use aluminum and steel, offering durability, lightweight properties, and weather resistance.

Yes! We offer fully customizable perforation patterns, allowing you to achieve a unique aesthetic while maintaining functional benefits.

  • Architectural facades – Creating striking building exteriors with controlled light and airflow.
  • Security fencing and barriers – Providing a balance of privacy and visibility.
  • Interior partitions and decorative elements – Enhancing spaces with modern, artistic designs.

Yes! The perforated design, combined with bent perforations, helps regulate airflow, reduce solar heat gain, and improve passive cooling, contributing to a building’s energy efficiency.

We offer various finishing options, including:

  • Powder coating – A durable, color-customizable finish.
  • Anodizing – A sleek, corrosion-resistant surface treatment.
  • Liquid-applied finishes – Specialized coatings for additional texture and protection.

Production times vary depending on design complexity and order volume, but we focus on efficient turnaround without sacrificing quality.

The bent perforations create a dynamic play of light and shadow, shifting with the sun’s movement to enhance the facade’s depth and visual appeal throughout the day.

Maintenance is minimal. Regular cleaning with mild detergent and water helps preserve their appearance and durability over time.
