Customized manufacturing of metallic facade | Real success story | Decorative metal sheet |

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. If you would like more information about our standard range of architectural facade profiles, do not hesitate to enter the following link. If, on the contrary, your project requires a custom-made profile, send us details of it so that we can study it and we can give you both a price and a term.

3 Relevant aspects to achive the ideal metallic ventilated facade

If you have come this far, you probably know what a ventilated facade consists of. However, we will start by reviewing the concept: The metallic ventilated facade is an increasingly used constructive solution whose ultimate goal is the elimination of the thermal bridge to generate excellent insulation between the external conditions and the interior of the building. In such a way that it is made up of two layers (insulation and lining) that form an air chamber between these two and that make it possible to break the thermal bridge. The metallic ventilated facade is a great solution against extreme temperatures The ventilated facade tends to be used in places where high temperatures are reached for obvious insulation reasons. However, it is important to note that a metallic ventilated facade is an optimal solution in the same way to combat low temperatures. This is so since its insulation layer retains the heat from the interior of the building and its own design helps to accumulate this heat, with its corresponding energy savings. Metallic ventilated facade yes, but what metal can be used? Undoubtedly, a question that must be asked when looking for the best solution. In this post, we will consider options for the most demanded metals in the world of facades: Steel: noble metal most used in construction due to its great benefits and its cheaper price compared to other metals. Aluminum: light, resistant and long-lasting, although its price is somewhat higher. Zinc: It can last more than 100 years installed without losing its properties and has a very different appearance from other metals. This metal is one of the most expensive in terms of metals used in construction but there is not doubt that it is worthy. What insulation can be used? Once the exterior coating has been clarified, it is time to talk about the insulation to be used for the construction of a ventilated facade. For a metallic ventilated facade, in most cases one of the following solutions is usually chosen: Rock wool: has a great behavior with respect to fire Polyurethane foam: it has a very low thermal conductivity, which makes it the best insulator although it is more vulnerable in the event of a fire. Design and customization of your metallic ventilated facade One of the properties of metal is how easy it is to manipulate it, transform it and, ultimately, give it the appearance that best suits us in each case. Any of the metals described above can be transformed with the desired colors and geometry. For this reason, it is important to consider what aspect we want our facade to have; if we want a modern and unique facade or a classic but elegant one. If you want to customize your metallic ventilated facade or give it a special look, count on us!

Folded metal sheet for facades: Elegance and Resistance in Architecture

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?

Microperforated architectural profile as a facade solution for residential buildings

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.

5 benefits of metallic cladding for the outer layer of your ventilated facade

The ventilated facade built with a metallic cladding system brings great benefits. We tell you about them in this article! A ventilated facade is an exterior cladding system used in building to improve thermal insulation, moisture control, and the aesthetic appearance of the facade. The ventilated facade can be made of metallic cladding to improve its performance, as we will tell you in the following lines. Metallic cladding for the layers of a ventilated facade The lining of a ventilated facade consists of several layers. The base layer is the building structure, followed by an insulating layer that helps improve the buildings energy efficiency by reducing heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer. An air chamber is installed on top of the insulation that allows air to circulate between the facade and the exterior cladding. This helps regulate the temperature and wick away any moisture that may accumulate between the layers. The outer layer is the coating itself, which can be made of different materials and is visible. In this sense, whenever steel is chosen for the exterior cladding of a ventilated facade, we will ensure the following benefits: Benefits of an external metallic cladding on your metal facade Durability: Steel is a very resistant and durable material, capable of withstanding the most adverse weather conditions. wide range of possibilities to modulate the aesthetics of the facade. Appealing Aesthetics: Modern, sleek look. It can be used in different ways, playing with geometry or even in three-dimensional shapes, allowing for a wide variety of architectural designs. Lightness: Despite its strength, steel is a relatively lightweight material compared to other cladding, which makes it easy to install and reduces the structural load on the building. Reduced Maintenance: Steel liners require minimal maintenance, extending their life and reducing the need for frequent repairs and refinishing. Versatility: Steel can be molded and adapted to different shapes and sizes, which allows great flexibility in the design of the façade. Furthermore, it is compatible with other cladding materials, allowing it to be combined with glass, wood or other materials to achieve interesting visual effects. At TAS we are manufacturers of exterior metallic cladding for ventilated facades made of steel, aluminum, zinc or other metals.
