Perforated aluminum is lightweight, offers excellent corrosion resistance (especially from rain/chemicals), and has a superior strength-to-weight ratio, making it great for sunshades or air diffusers, while perforated stainless steel is significantly stronger, more durable in harsh/abrasive environments (like marine), and very hygienic, ideal for heavy-duty, high-heat, or food-grade applications, though it's heavier and pricier

Aluminum perforated sheet, also known as aluminum perforated sheet or aluminum perforated panel, is a metal sheet made by continuously punching holes into the surface of aluminum sheets using advanced CNC punching equipment, creating a variety of patterns, shapes, and hole patterns.
