Introducing Ampliato AL Aalto

October 25, 2019

We would like to formally welcome Ampliato Al Aalto to our Ampliato line of design expanded metal products.

Ampliato Al Aalto is an attractive alternative to standard expanded metal, perforated metal and wire mesh products. In addition to providing functionality, Ampliato Al Aalto is well suited for enhancing the visual appeal of railings, dividers, mill work, signage, fencing, the covering up of unsightly mechanical components, and other woven wire mesh fixture applications.

Its corrosion resistance makes it ideal for outdoor applications, and its light weight makes for a practical option for signage and elevated applications.

Back in May we showcased Ampliato AL Aalto in action as part of the signage in a major grocery chain located in the bustling intersection of Bloor and Islington. The fabricator, Paul from Peterborough Welding Services – made use of the aluminum-based Ampliato AL Aalto, powder coated in matte white for the hot and ready-to-eat foods signage inside the grocery store.
