Building interiors get a lot of attention, but the exterior of a building shapes the identity of your space and makes a statement before anyone steps foot inside. For a truly unique building exterior, try integrating exterior metal wall panels into your design.
Exterior metal wall panels customized in tandem with Arktura’s adaptive solutions, proprietary technology and skilled project managers are the ideal way to dress up your building and make a statement.
The resources and materials that are available support unlimited creativity — and exterior metal wall panels from Arktura give you the flexibility to create nearly any design imaginable.
Here at Arktura, we work with you to design exterior metal cladding panels that will meet your design specifications. Our project managers are committed to each architectural project that is introduced to their team, and they will be there to help guide you every step of the way.
We design and fabricate exterior cladding panels that will dress up your building by combining form and function in unique and innovative ways. Our exterior cladding solutions are divided into three categories, each of which is customizable to the specific needs of your exterior application.
Our Graphic Perf® system offers two distinct choices: Graphic Perf® Scripted and Graphic Perf® Custom Photoreal Exterior. Depending on the needs of your application, you can choose to include custom graphics, unique designs, integrated lighting and stunning colors to your exterior metal cladding panels.
Graphic Perf® Scripted is an innovative tool for drawing in metal. This tool, created by Arktura’s in-house team, enables you to use your full range of creativity in designing exterior metal wall cladding. The ability to execute any design will help you shape the unique identity of your space.
When you provide a sketch or image as inspiration, our expert team will bring it to life using our software to individually design each shape, perforation and opening of the artwork. Check out the range of options that Graphic Perf® Scripted offers.
