Perforated Sheet
Perforated sheets are sometimes called perforated screens or perforated plates. They are metal sheets with slots or holes. Their holes can be punched or stamped using laser cutting and other CNC machines.
These sheets have aesthetic appeal, ease of fabrication, and excellent corrosion resistance. Also, because of their low maintenance, durability, and extended lifespan, they are cost-effective.
XIONGQIAN manufactures all kinds of perforated sheets to suit any application. We offer them in embossed, louvered, countersunk, and other perforation types. Our sheets also come in rectangular, square, staggered, or custom pitch configurations.
Feel free to message us for your inquiries.

Uses of Perforated Metal Sheet
Protection
The perforated metal sheets have enough durability to protect machinery, equipment, and other valuables. Moreover, they are used for balcony guardrails in order to prevent children from falling.
Anti-Slip
There are perforated metal sheets that are embossed to prevent people from slipping. They lower the possibility of slipping on slippery or wet areas. And they are used to prevent skidding in stairs, industrial plants, transport places, and other areas.
Heat Dissipation
The perforated plastic and metal sheets have heat dissipation characteristics since they can reduce the air condition load. Due to that, they are used as facades, cladding, and other architectural applications. They can save approximately 29-45% of energy.
Acoustic Utilization
The perforated sheets can be designed with large open areas to enable the sound easily pass through. They are also used as grills for speakers since they can prevent them from damage. These sheets can also reduce noise to give you a relaxed space.
Filterability
Perforated metal sheets have excellent filtration ability. As a result, they are used as a filter or a sift for wine presses, grain dryers, fish farming, etc.
Protection from Radiation & Sunlight
For architectural uses, perforated plastic and metal sheets are commonly used as a sunshade or sunscreen. That is because they can minimize the number of sun’s rays without blocking the view.
Various Specifications
Hole Size
Typically, the size of the perforation ranges from 1 up to 154mm.
Sheet Thickness
The thickness ranges from 0.75 up to 12mm.
Open Area Percentage
The open area of the sheet ranges from 20% to 60%.
These specifications can also be customized based on your specific request.
What are the Surface Treatments Suitable for the Perforated Metal Sheet?
Surface finishes or treatment processes are done to:
- Enhance the appearance, texture, or brightness of the sheet
- Extend their lifespan
- Enhance their resistance to wear and corrosion
- Improve durability
The most common surface treatment for perforated metal sheets include:
Powder Coating
Electrostatically adding paint powder to the perforated metal sheets is known as powder coating. This process produces thicker coatings than liquid coatings. Compared to liquid-coated sheets, powder-coated sheets are more eco-friendly. They can also keep their surface appearance and color longer.
Galvanizing
Galvanizing involves immersing the perforated metal sheet in a molten zinc bath. The most popular galvanizing process is hot-dip galvanization. This process is mainly used to prevent the sheets from corrosion.
Anodizing
To increase the oxide layer of perforated metal sheets, the anodizing process will be done. This process improves the adherence of primers and paints of the sheet. It can also increase their weather resistance and hardness. The coating of the anodized perforated metal sheets won’t flake or peel off. There are also different colors and types of anodizing available.
Other surface treatments we offer also include dull mill, shine, high polished, and many more depending on your request.
