    Borders, apertures and plain zones
     
    Standard perforation patterns can be supplied either overall or with various sizes of plain border. The plain border on designer patterns is dictated by each individual design.

Tiles with both standard and designer patterns can be manufactured with factory formed apertures for the integration of luminaires, air grilles, smoke detectors, sprinklers etc. The perforation pattern can also be modified to include plain zones within the perforated area to provide picture frame borders around services.
