Use of zinc is changing and adapting to architectural

trends, especially to meet requirements in terms of

interior comfort and energy saving. An opaque material

by nature, it can become a mesh, lace or veil on a building

envelope thanks to perforation. A specialist in rolled

zinc building solutions, VMZINC® offers a wide range of

standard or made-to-order perforations according to the

aesthetics and degree of transparency sought.

Plays of light

Perforations provide a new means of customising

buildings. Envelopes can be clad in meshes to make

facades vibrate and create plays of shadow and light,

changing the way in which the material is perceived.

In the day time, VMZINC® perforated zinc gives the

building a dynamic, lightweight appearance. At nightfall,

it seems to disappear, revealing the illuminated core of

the building, or animates the facades when used with

LED backlights.

The use of VMZINC perforated cladding systems in front

of windows improves the thermal performance of buil-

dings by significantly reducing the use of air conditioning

thanks to natural regulation of temperature. The sun-

screens filter the heat while retaining natural light inside

the building. This curtain-filter also protects occupants

from exterior view.

An ideal material

Thanks to its self-protective properties, perforated zinc

acquires a natural patina. There is no risk of corrosion on

cut edges. The intrinsic qualities of zinc make it an ideal

material for perforated cladding systems. The elegance

and lifespan of the project are ensured over the long

term.
