This colorful facade matches its location, San Juan de Alicante, where the exterior facade of the Carrefour shopping center has been completely renovated, using a composite panel resource together with these perforated and post-lacquered steel trays. One of the latest projects in which TAS has participated with the supply of its Architectural Tray has been this Carrefour shopping center in San Juan de Alicante, Spain. TAS has manufactured Architectural Trays in different widths and with a 10 x 10 mm square random perforation. For this project, up to four different colors have been combined to achieve the chromatic scale that was demanded. These Architectural Trays have been made of steel with a thickness of 1 mm and folded on all four sides, to achieve greater rigidity, durability and ease of assembly. The solution has been installed on the entire upper part of the façade of this Carrefour shopping center and has been combined at the same time with the main facade built with composite panel. This shows that the solutions manufactured by TAS in both steel and aluminum are very versatile and allow a world of solutions within the reach of any designer, architect or technician. These trays are mainly used for decoration to give character to the building and are installed on an auxiliary support structure with omega profiles. In addition, they provide greater insulation against extreme temperatures since they protect the main facade. This project was developed by Carrefour Property in collaboration with CARMILA. If you currently have a metal facade project, do not hesitate to contact us. We will be happy to advise you.

How far do you think we can go to meet the demands of our customers in the manufacture of customized decorative sheets for metallic facades? We recently received a query about our Menorca profile, as it was the architectural profile chosen for a decorative border on the main facade of a residential building. Both the owner and the installer were convinced that the Menorca Profile was adequate and would offer an ideal construction solution. However, it was decided that they wanted to overlap or tongue and groove one with the other to give it a greater appearance of continuity and try to hide the cut between one profile and another. After receiving this query, our technical department got down to work in collaboration with the factory to see the feasibility of this request of customized metallic facade. After several tests, it was concluded that since each of the folds of this profile had a 90º opening, it was simply not possible to «splice» one profile onto another. So, it was tried to manufacture the profile with a slightly more open fold up to 100º but keeping both the useful width and its technical characteristics. On this occasion, the tests were successful and it was possible to verify how, now, one profile could overlap another to achieve the desired effect. This is how the creation of this new modified Menorca Profile or Menorca M Profile originated. An ideal architectural profile to create decorative borders on facades as long as necessary, and which has notable technical characteristics and an extraordinary visual appearance and finish. So far one more example of how we strive every day at TAS to focus on our clients and offer real and fast solutions.

Sandwich sheet and sandwich panel are terms used in the construction and engineering industry to describe composite structures. Although both terms refer to internal and external skin panel systems, there are some differences between them. The sandwich sheet refers to a type of structure composed of two rigid external layers (usually metal) with an intermediate core of insulating material, such as polyurethane (PUR) or polyisocyanurate (PIR). These layers are joined together by a bonding or welding process, forming a strong and resistant structure. Sandwich sheets are commonly used in the construction of walls, ceilings and floors to provide thermal and acoustic insulation, as well as structural resistance. In principle, sandwich panel is a more general term that encompasses a variety of similar composite structures. Sandwich panels are also composed of outer layers and an insulating core, but they can be made of different materials, such as metal, wood, plastic, or fiberglass. These panels can have various applications in construction and industry, including facade cladding, roof coverings, doors, partition panels, among others. In short, the main difference lies in the terminology and scope of use. Sandwich sheet refers specifically to a structure composed of metal layers with an insulating core, while the term sandwich panel is broader and applies to various composite structures with different outer materials and insulating cores. Therefore, whenever we talk about a sandwich panel or sheet, we must not take anything for granted and specify or ask for specifications of the materials with which it has been manufactured. This way we will avoid misunderstandings and problems when consuming this architectural solution. At TAS we have more than 20 years of experience working with the PUR metal sandwich panel as well as its finishes for a perfect closing of facades and roofs. In addition, we have a large stock of these materials to be able to supply them immediately. Contact us for more information.

Learn about all the benefits of using folded metal sheets to cover and give character to the facade of a building. Folded sheet metal for facades is a material used for facade cladding due to its elegance, versatility and resistance. The bending technique of the metal – whether steel, aluminum, or zinc to name a few examples – creates an attractive visual effect and provides a durable solution for exterior cladding. In this article, we will explore the features, benefits, and applications of folded sheet metal applied to architectural facades. Characteristics of the folded metal sheet for facades The folded sheet metal usually comes in most cases from coils that are unrolled and cut to the length and width necessary for the project in question. Once the sheets are cut from the coil, they are ready to be perforated if necessary, or directly bended. The folds are made in special machines designed for this function called «folders». In this sense, there are manual folding machines that work in a single direction and automatic folding machines that are capable of folding on both sides, which makes the folding process much easier and faster. The process of generating folds in the sheet to varying degrees and at varying distances from one another creates a visually appealing geometry and texture. Furthermore, these folds not only add an aesthetic element to the facade, but also increase the rigidity and strength of the material. Benefits of folded sheet metal for facades: Sleek and modern aesthetics: The pleat pattern in the sheet metal provides a distinctive and contemporary look to the building’s facade. The variety of shapes and sizes of folds allows the creation of unique and personalized designs, adapted to architectural tastes and needs. Durability and resistance: Metal is a highly resistant and durable material, capable of withstanding adverse weather conditions and resisting corrosion. Folded steel or aluminum sheet metal retains these properties well, ensuring the longevity and reduced maintenance of the exterior cladding. Versatility in design: Folded sheet metal can be used in a variety of facade applications, including commercial, residential and public building cladding. Its flexibility allows it to adapt to different shapes and architectural geometries, creating a dynamic and attractive appearance. Energy efficiency: By combining the folded sheet metal with insulating materials, the energy efficiency of the building is improved by increasing thermal insulation. This contributes to reduce the expense and energy in the interior conditioning of the building. At TAS we are experts with more than 15 years of experience in sheet metal folding. We are capable of folding metal sheets with a length of up to 8 meters and a thickness of 6 mm. We work a wide range of metals such as: Steel Aluminum Zinc corten steel Stainless steel Hot Rolled Steel TPO laminate Do you need a customized metal solution tailored to your project?

Metallic cladding based on the Mallorca 6 architectural profile, a suitable choice for sustainable construction. More than 4,000 m2 of the Mallorca 6 profile have been manufactured and supplied for this recently opened residential building in Seville, Spain. For this project, the Mallorca 6 Profile has been manufactured starting from a galvanized steel coil with a thickness of 0.8 mm and perforated R5T7.5 to subsequently lacquer it in the oven on both sides in RAL 9010 colour. As can be seen, this profile has been used to enclose the terraces of each home in this building, providing elegance, design, and privacy. In addition, the perforation allows air to pass through and helps to maintain a more balanced temperature during the hottest months, while providing light and spaciousness inside the home. The Mallorca 6 profile has a useful width of 990 mm, which allows progress and cover a large part of a project quickly and economically. This profile can be manufactured up to 6 meters long and has a rib height of 53 mm. Given that for this project the profile was post-lacquered in the oven with 55 microns of paint on both sides, the perforations were covered and with it, the steel protection of this profile was guaranteed. This gives this facade greater durability over the years and will prevent the appearance of rust. At TAS, we have a range of architectural profiles for facades, but, of course, we adjust to any metal facade project and we manufacture customized architectural profiles for each project.
