Hexagonal Perforated Metal for Decoration
Perforated metal is one of the most versatile and popular metal
products on the market today. Perforated sheet can be either heavy
or light in gauge, and it can have either small or large
aesthetically appealing openings. This makes perforated sheet
suitable for many architectural metal and decorative metal uses. An
economical choice for your project, our perforated metal filters
out solids, diffuses light, air and sound and has a high
strength-to-weight ratio.
We carry perforated metal in a wide array of hole shapes, sizes,
gauges and material types. The most common applications for
perforated metal include screens, diffusers, guards, filters, vents
and signage to name a few.
