Ferrier Wire, along with our division Ferrier Design, has been delivering a wide range of quality perforated metal products with various specifications. Are you aware that this product has all kinds of different uses? Here are the 4 key attributes of a perforated metal which are perfect to use in your next architectural project.
Aesthetics
Architecture is both about beauty and functionality. Aesthetics is highly achievable with the use of perforated metals that come in different sizes and shapes, and unique decorative design for plenty of uses such as radiator covers and railing infill panels.
Safety
If you need more than just beauty and function, that is the safety of your loved ones, customers or workers, then perforated metal does just that. The holes of the product make it so easy to look out of the building but not for those trying to sneak in. This is why these products are so common in schools and car parks.
Protection
Apart from safety, architects have to bring in good balance between natural light, sun and shade, and protection from harsh glare. Apart from allowing enough sunlight to enter, perforated metal also provides great ventilation while reducing the excessive heat of the sun. Also, in humid environments, the stainless steel perforated metal is the perfect material to use as it can resist rust and does not corrode easily.
100% Recyclability
Perforated metals are also considered as eco-friendly building materials because most can be fully recycled. It simply means that when they reach the end of their lifespan, they can be used again for other similar projects rather than toss over a landfill.
Ferrier Wire stocks a good selection of design perforated metals for use in cabinetry, privacy screens, millwork, and more. We also have a range of mild steel great for industrial and design applications, and stainless steel perforated metal products with round hole suitable for use in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
