Exclusive architectural design, from the smallest details to large functional industrial buildings: welcome to the world of 3D Barcode system.
This innovative facade system redefines the concept of profiled sheets, bringing a striking linear 3D design that resembles a barcode. Alternating vertical or horizontal profiles create a dynamic play of light and shadow, giving objects a modern, contemporary, and distinctive identity. Thanks to advanced manufacturing technology, 3D Barcode profiled sheets can be produced in maximum sizes and minimum thicknesses, ensuring high quality with reduced structural weight.
What is a 3D Barcode?
3D Barcode represents a range of high-quality profiled sheets primarily intended for facade design, but also for modern column cladding, cassette panels and shingles. In addition, the system offers functional perforated and embossed panels that can be used for wall or ceiling cladding, both externally and internally.
The system is designed so that the profiles interlock firmly, creating clean, unbroken lines with no visible joints. This characteristic gives architects unlimited freedom in creating unique visual effects on buildings.
Wide selection of materials
To cater to a diverse range of aesthetic and functional needs, 3D Barcode is offered in an impressive array of materials:
- Aluminium: Lightweight, durable and corrosion-resistant. Environmentally friendly (100% recyclable) and the most common choice for modern façades.
- Stainless steel: It offers superior resistance to wear and weathering with a distinctive industrial sheen.
- To bake: Material that develops a natural patina over time, giving the building an authentic, evolving, and timeless appearance.
- Steel: A sturdy and reliable material, usually protected by galvanisation and painting for durability.
- Titanium zinc: Extremely durable material that naturally creates a protective layer, ideal for demanding climatic conditions.
Finishes and colours
Profiled sheets 3D Barcode are available in almost any finish you can imagine. From coloured, polished and sandblasted surfaces, to patterned, anodised or etched variants.
When it comes to painting, all colours and shades according to the RAL chart are available. We exclusively use high-quality coatings that guarantee longevity:
Coating tip | Characteristics |
PVDF (Polyvinylidene fluoride) | Premium exterior coating. Offers exceptional resistance to UV radiation, fading, and chemicals. Ideal for long-term projects and harsh weather conditions. |
Polyester | A more economical option, excellent for interiors or less demanding exteriors. It offers a smooth surface and a wide range of colours. |
Anodising | A process that retains the metallic appearance of aluminium while increasing its hardness and resistance to corrosion. |
Tailored solutions for every project
Let your ideas run free. A wide range of options results in more than 60 basic shapes which can be combined as needed.
Our team can customise profiles entirely to your specifications. Customisations include:
- Length and dimensions: Upon request, profiled sheets can be produced in lengths or widths of up to 5.5 metres.
- Thickness: Thicknesses from 0.5 mm to 5 mm are available, depending on load-bearing and design requirements.
- Shape: Creating specific asymmetric or symmetric profiles for a unique “barcode” pattern.
Perforations and functionality
Beyond standard full profiles, 3D Barcode sheets can be supplied Completely or partially perforated.
Perforated profiles offer multiple advantages:
- Light Control (Shading): They act as brise soleils, reducing the penetration of solar heat into the building.
- Ventilation: They allow airflow, which is ideal for garages or concealing technical equipment.
- Acoustics: In interiors, perforated profiles can significantly improve sound insulation and reduce echo.
- Night design: Combined with the background LED lighting, the perforated profiles create spectacular visual effects at night.
Applications in Architecture
The 3D Barcode system is extremely versatile and applicable in various scenarios:
- Facade: Main application for commercial, residential, and industrial facilities.
- Column coverings: Modernisation and protection of load-bearing elements.
- Cassette panels and shingles: For specific roof and wall applications.
- Interiors: Decorative walls and suspended ceilings in lobbies, offices and shopping centres.
Why choose a 3D Barcode?
Selecting a 3D Barcode system brings architectural precision and long-lasting quality. Its innovative design allows for the creation of striking facades that stand out in the urban landscape. With minimal maintenance, exceptional weather resistance, and the possibility of complete customisation, this system represents an optimal solution for contemporary construction projects that demand superior aesthetics and functionality.
