Proteus SC Tray is a bespoke single skin cladding solution designed to meet your architectural requirements.
Architects and designers can select from a wide range of perforation options including circles, squares, hexagons and more, or create fully custom designs using etching and laser cutting. These techniques allow for distinctive patterns, branding elements and even pixelated imagery to be integrated directly into the façade using advanced design software.
- Manufactured with A1 or A2-s1, d0 classified materials.
- Mechanical stiffeners ensure stability for larger panels.
- Available in flat, curved, corner & soffit configurations.
- Custom perforated & routed patterns.
- Wide range of materials & finishes available.
- Large format panels available.
Perfect for projects that require unique visual elements that stand out, while also delivering a practical screening solution.
Proteus SC Tray panels are supported by the engineered Proteus system of aluminium carriers and components, allowing full adjustability for precise alignment in all directions. This makes installation straightforward, even on large or irregular structures, and suits both simple and complex designs. Panels feature a consistent 20mm joint with return folds that create a clean underlap and overlap detail, giving a seamless, refined finish.
Alongside its practical benefits, Proteus SC Tray can be formed into concave, convex, or flat shapes, offering real design flexibility. It can span large distances between supports, making it ideal for wide, uninterrupted surfaces. Available as solid or perforated panels, it brings clarity and style to architectural designs.
The System
The Proteus SC system can achieve impressive spans, making it ideal for applications requiring continuous vertical mullions between floors.

While most perforated or solid screens are one-dimensional, Formations allows architects and designers to introduce a second dimension by incorporating concave and convex shapes into the surface. This adds texture and movement, creating depth and dynamic visual interest within the design.
-
Using advanced computer software, we can transform images, logos, letters, and numbers into custom perforation patterns. These designs can be applied to a single panel or extended across multiple panels to create a larger jigsaw effect across the entire façade. Bespoke perforations give designers and building owners the freedom to make a truly distinctive architectural statement.
