Facade perforated and corrugated panels S.Panels CORRUGATED AND PERFORATED
These are panels with complex geometry: longitudinal relief (corrugation) provides them with high rigidity and distinctive texture, while through-holes executed according to a specified pattern transform a solid surface into a "breathing" and light-transmitting screen. Thanks to the use of aluminium and polymer coatings, including decorative finishes (anodising, stone texture), the product retains all the advantages of metal facade systems.
Even when cladding large areas, perforated panels do not create the effect of a massive wall, maintaining openness and airiness.
Product form: facade cassette or panel with flanging for installation.
Hole shape: round, square, slotted or custom (to order).
Pitch and diameter: calibrated to specific requirements for light transmission and design.
Overall dimensions: limited by equipment capabilities (length up to 4000 mm)
Wave pitch from 30×30 to 150×150 mm
• Parking and technical floor cladding: for natural ventilation of areas where exhaust gases or heat from equipment accumulate.
• Renovation of existing buildings: masking ventilation shafts and engineering systems on the facade while maintaining air exchange.
• Branded facades: applying logos or patterns via perforation, visible up close or in the dark with backlighting.
• Wall and ceiling cladding: creating acoustic comfort in combination with sound-absorbing materials placed behind the panels.
What are perforated and corrugated facade panels
Perforated panels are metal sheets (steel, aluminium, copper, brass) with holes (round, square, slotted) stamped or drilled with a specific pitch. The degree of perforation (percentage of open area) varies from 10% to 70%.
Corrugated panels are sheets with longitudinal waves (corrugations) of trapezoidal or sinusoidal shape. Corrugation gives the panel rigidity and allows spanning large distances.
Both types can be used independently or in combination with each other, creating unique facade solutions.
Advantages and applications of perforated panels
Where perforated panels are used
-
Ventilated facades. Panels are mounted on a substructure with an air cavity. Holes ensure air circulation, remove excess moisture, preventing condensation.
-
Solar shading screens. Regulate interior lighting, reduce building heat gain in summer.
-
Noise barriers. Along highways, railways, industrial enterprises. Perforation + sound-absorbing layer inside reduces noise level by 8–15 dB.
-
Decorative elements. Parking screens, technical floors, masking ventilation equipment.
Advantages of perforation
-
Ventilation. Air freely passes through holes, critical for ventilated facades.
-
Wind load reduction. Perforated panels have lower wind resistance than solid panels.
-
Play of light. Depending on lighting angle, the facade changes appearance - from nearly "solid" to semi-transparent.
-
Concealing defects. Minor surface irregularities, fastener marks and inevitable scratches visually "dissolve" on a perforated surface.
Advantages and applications of corrugated panels
Where corrugated panels are used
-
Ventilated facades. Vertical or horizontal corrugation creates a clear, rhythmic pattern.
-
Roofing. Panels with high corrugation (from 35 mm) withstand snow loads and drain water.
-
Industrial buildings. Hangars, warehouses, shops - quick construction at affordable cost.
-
Column and pylon cladding. Corrugation emphasises vertical lines.
Advantages of corrugated panels
-
Rigidity. Even thin steel does not deflect thanks to corrugation.
-
Metal savings. To achieve the same rigidity, a solid sheet would require greater thickness.
-
Fast installation. Large panels cover extensive areas with minimal joints.
-
Resistance to deformation. Does not "flutter" in wind, does not warp in sun.
Comparison of facade panel materials
| Material | Corrosion resistance | Weight | Price | Appearance | Recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Galvanised steel + polyester | High | Heavy | Low | Any RAL color | Budget option: warehouses, hangars, garages |
| Galvanised steel + PVDF | High | Heavy | Medium | Any RAL color, fade-resistant | Building facades in any climate |
| Aluminium (pre-painted) | Very high | Light | High | Silvery or colored | High-rise building facades, coastal projects |
| Stainless steel | Maximum | Heavy | Very high | Silvery (matte/mirror) | Prestige projects, aggressive environments |
| Copper / Brass | Very high | Heavy | Elite | Golden, patina | Elite projects, restoration, boutiques |
Recommendation: for 80% of projects, galvanised steel with PVDF coating (service life 30–50 years) or aluminium (light and rust-free) is optimal.

Frequently asked questions
1. How does a perforated panel differ from expanded metal mesh?
A perforated panel is a sheet with holes; material between the holes remains solid. Expanded metal (mesh) is a grid where cells are separated by ribs, with almost no solid metal between them. Expanded metal is lighter and more "transparent", but less rigid.
2. What perforation percentage should I choose for a ventilated facade?
Optimal is 20–40%. This is sufficient for air cavity ventilation, but the facade does not look like a "sieve". At 50–70% the panel becomes semi-transparent, showing the insulation — this must be considered in design.
3. Can corrugated and perforated panels be combined?
Yes. For example, the main facade area uses corrugated panels, while accent zones (entrance, bay window) use perforated panels. This gives the building individuality.
4. How to maintain a perforated facade?
Maintenance is minimal. Rain washes away dust. For removing heavy soiling — soft cloth, water and neutral detergent. High-pressure washers are not recommended for perforated panels (pressurised water can penetrate the gap and wet the insulation).
5. What material should I choose for a downtown facade?
Optimal is galvanised steel with PVDF coating (service life 30–50 years, any color) or aluminium (light, rust-free). Stainless steel, copper and brass are for premium projects with corresponding budgets.
