Perforated Panels – Altair
Parking Garages / Building Façades / Architectural Elements
Altair Perforated Panels are cost effective, vertical support panels formed to created rigidity and strength to meet code for parking structures and building façades. Aluminum perforated metal patterns come in a variety of shapes and sizes for a truly unique façade. These cost-effective panels are lightweight, yet durable, and virtually maintenance free.

Fabrication & Installation
measure twice, cut once
precision installation
The Altair Perforated Panels are pre-engineered systems with installation in mind. Our engineers have figured out the support structures and connection details for the panel system so all you need to do is plug and play. Our collaborative design process allows architects to focus on the aesthetics while we manufacture the results.
