Perforated
facades
Kalzip’s launch of perforated facades has
proved so popular with architects and specifiers the company has
extended the range to include two new perforation shapes.
It was originally launched with circular perforations as an
innovative, low-maintenance and lightweight façade system
capable of transforming even the dullest of buildings into
striking landmarks.
Now the range is enhanced even further with elegant elliptical
and cruciform perforations that look even more stunning,
especially when lit from behind at night. They are also
practical, allowing natural light and air to penetrate whilst
offering protection against the weather.
Ideal as a lightweight sun shading solution, the Kalzip
perforated façade system offers bespoke protection against
excessive solar gain through glass facades while helping to
reduce wind loads, particularly in exposed areas. The aluminium
itself is inherently resistant to corrosion and performs
particularly well in environments such as coastal areas.
The new perforations allow specifiers even more design freedom
when proposing a new lease of life for existing buildings or an
unusual, contemporary feel to new ones, ranging from multi
storey car parks and plant rooms to educational and commercial
establishments.
Available in four Kalzip standing seam profiles as well as the
TF37/800R cladding sheet, the 1.0 mm standard thickness and 1.2
mm available on request can be concave and convex curved and are
available in a stucco embossed, patina or colour coated finish.
The perforations have been achieved without compromising the
robustness, durability or maintenance free qualities of the
aluminium and, like all Kalzip sheets, they can easily be
unzipped at the end of the building’s life and either reused or
recycled.
