Applications

The personality of a building is expressed through its shell. Whether sober or sophisticated, discreet or colourful, the façade becomes the visual signature of the building, embodying the tangible boundary between the private sphere and the outside world, while revealing the architectural essence that sets it apart.

Metal is still a wise choice for the building envelope, for a number of reasons. Durable over time, steel and aluminium offer a host of possibilities, in terms of both shape and finish, to fulfil the desired function with a finish that can be customised as required.

The use of expanded metal for the design of sunbreakers is a wise choice. This metal ‘mesh’ provides effective protection against the sun's rays at any time of day, while preserving natural lighting. The wide variety of meshes available opens up numerous options for architects, allowing customisation to suit each project, while maintaining a balance between functional, economic and aesthetic aspects.

Railings have evolved to become an essential component of architecture. In the context of a project, the additional cost generated by customising railings remains moderate if the added value and well-being felt by the building's occupants are taken into account. This is all the more true in urban environments, where the excitement of daily life requires a choice of construction that is pleasant to live in and to look at.

The need to ensure privacy or reduce energy consumption associated with air conditioning in homes or offices justifies the installation of shutters. The use of metal, and expanded metal in particular, provides a practical response to these requirements. The wide range of meshes available offers architects multiple options, enabling them to enhance each project while maintaining a balance between functional, economic and aesthetic aspects.

The choice of metal remains a sustainable solution for creating harmonious interior designs in private and public spaces, and also offers the possibility of optimising aspects such as acoustics and safety. The combination of expanded or perforated metal with a sound-absorbent material effectively reduces the reverberation of sound, while protecting the material itself. With the right choice of material, type of application and finish, it is possible to make an environment unique by customising it.
