Using our #CNClevelling rolls, we’re able to gently guide perforated sheet through controlled pressure rollers that work the material back into shape. It helps remove any distortion caused during perforating, ensuring it meets tight tolerances with an improved overall appearance.

After perforations in exotic materials? We’ve worked with everything from copper and brass used in architectural applications to superalloys for high-performance and extreme environments. Each material behaves differently, but our approach stays the same - precise perforations.

Alongside our in-house #manufacturing, we work with a network of subcontractors to supply fully finished parts, all managed through one point of contact. So whether you need powder coating, painting or anodising, we take care of it & deliver #perforations that are ready to go.

We're carrying out key maintenance on parts of our production line, including the coil handling equipment that feeds material through our perforation processes. This ensures our equipment is in top condition so we can keep delivering the level of accuracy our customers rely on.

Offices, showrooms, warehouses, hospitals...our perforations are used in all kinds of spaces. With a wide choice of perforation patterns, it’s easy to match replacement tiles to existing designs, & where acoustics / temperature control are a factor, we can add acoustic backing.

This #perforation was for an #architectural piece, where it needed to work just as well visually as it did functionally. It's a great reminder that perforations aren’t only about performance, they can shape light, add texture, and become a real design feature in their own right.

Degreasing perforated sheets makes a big difference to how they perform. In food processing, it’s key for preventing contamination & maintaining hygiene standards, while in aerospace it helps protect sensitive environments from contamination. It’s a simple, but important, step!

Sustainability in #construction goes beyond materials - it’s about how every element contributes to long-term environmental performance. We were proud to support One Embankment Place, where our perforated balustrades helped improve ventilation & overall energy efficiency. ⬇️

From in-house design through to manufacture, our #tooling capability gives us full control over every stage of the perforation process. That means we can create highly complex, custom patterns, adapt quickly to changing requirements & maintain tight tolerances across every run.

Levelling up. 💪 When metal is #perforated, it doesn’t always stay flat. Our levelling capability is designed to bring that #material back under control. By carefully correcting distortion, we ensure every sheet is flat, stable & ready to perform in its desired application.

We don’t just take a brief & send it into production, we work closely with you to shape the idea. That means exploring a few options together & tightening things up early, like material choice, pattern, dimensions & other details that make a difference to how the part performs.

With 60+ years behind us, we’ve seen & perforated just about everything. 🤷‍♂️ Filtration panels, ventilation enclosures, architectural features, you name it. Backed by advanced machinery & bespoke tooling, you can expect a straightforward process, all to the highest standard.

Around the shop floor, we’re constantly checking in on the detail, from materials & #tooling through to pattern, hole size, finish & overall accuracy. This helps us catch things early to keep consistency high & ensure what leaves the door matches exactly what was specified.

We had another SCHNUTZ Performance Leveler delivered. 🙌 It’s the third on site, with our relationship with SCHNUTZ going back to 1995. This strengthens our in-house material prep capability & improves consistency across production. Thanks to all involved in the install!

#Perforated #balustrading offers a strong balance of safety, durability & low maintenance, while still giving #architects freedom to create standout designs. From bold, large perforated holes to tighter, more subtle perforations, the choice shapes the final look.

Warped and distorted perforated metal? Not around here. ❌ By passing material through our #CNC levelling systems, we’re able to remove those stresses and restore consistency across the sheet, helping maintain flatness, accuracy and overall performance. #Perforated #UKEng

As Cannes Film Festival kicks off, we’re looking back at a project that took us from the workshop to a #blockbuster film. When Jurassic World Dominion came to us, the brief was simple but exacting, 3mm #aluminium panels with 26mm hexagonal #perforations: bit.ly/4mL0mts
