It is difficult to identify an industry that could do without perforated sheets. They are used both in agriculture and the food industry, as well as in construction, industrial processing, as well as in the machine construction and automotive industries.
In recent years, perforated sheets have also increasingly become a symbol of modern architecture, serving as unconventional facades, balustrades or ceiling panels. The largest manufacturer of perforated sheets in the world is RMIG, whose product range includes products with various perforation patterns, as well as expanded metal.
Facades and interior design with perforated sheets in the leading role
Modern architecture relies on materials such as concrete, glass and steel, which are mandatory elements of a minimalist, modern style that fits well especially in the urban landscape. The rawness of sheet metal, various perforation options and original design have become an asset, thanks to which perforated sheets perfectly reflect the trend toward unconventional architectural solutions. They are not only durable and resistant to weather conditions and vandalism. This is also a product that perfectly combines the functions of typical utility with original form, harmoniously blending into spaces arranged in different styles.
Expanded metal for facades, fences and pathways
RMIG is also a manufacturer of expanded metal, which is very popular in construction and industrial design. Where are they used? First of all, wherever a material that is lightweight and strong at the same time is sought, that is, for traffic paths, footbridges, steps, protective fences. Expanded metal mesh will also work well for grounding electricity and as facades in modern construction.
Compared to solid sheets, expanded metal has three-dimensional meshes, so its plane can withstand a much higher point load. Some of the meshes in RMIG's range have a special type of mesh that provides not only anti-slip properties, but also hydrophobic properties, thus repelling water and wind. This type of expanded metal mesh will work well on building facades, for example.
