Rooftop Screen
AMICO Materials Bring Beauty and Performance to the Rooftop Screen
An equipment screen can improve the visual appeal of your building and often seamlessly blends into the building’s existing style. Alternatively, you can choose unique materials and patterns to create a striking architectural feature. In either case, AMICO rooftop screens can conceal while enhancing the overall aesthetics of your building.
Benefits of Using AMICO Materials for Rooftop Screens
Material Directionality: Expanded mesh is dimensional and, when appropriately oriented, can provide added opacity disproportionate to its open area, creating a high-performing rooftop screen.
Drive a precise open area: AMICO materials are easy to manipulate and modify to reach a precise open percentage to ensure your rooftop equipment needs are well served.
Attractive Surfaces: AMICO materials offer a wide range of finished and design customization options, so you aren’t just creating an obligatory rooftop screen, but you can add design value and beauty to your structure.
Rooftop Screen Project Case Study
626 1st Avenue NYC Rooftop Screen
This installation was a simple rooftop screen using AMICO’s APEX03 Expanded Mesh. While these areas of a structure are often not a focal point of a design, in this instance, it is a highly noticeable peak of an iconic New York City skyscraper. The mesh brings some necessary texture to the design and helps the mechanical enclosure to appear more thought out while bringing visual interest.
Bally’s outdoor shopping mall had the challenge of concealing unsightly rooftops from surrounding high-end hotel vistas. The solution was to incorporate perforated metal that could seemless transition into the architectural sunshade as well. The brillian backlighting design turned the utilitarian feature into a focal point of teh design.
