Matt Burns started Perftech to meet the market need for a new one-stop shop of perforated metal products for the commercial construction, industrial, engineering, and mining and quarrying industries, and the architects who specify these solutions.

Perftech is an exciting new full-range supplier in this market and combines Matt’s fresh thinking, flexibility, service excellence, responsiveness, and local supply efficiencies. This is demonstrated by Perftech being the only New Zealand perforated metal solutions supply only company that can manufacture expanded mesh, perforated sheets, and woven wire, locally, ensuring supply.

With over 15 years of experience in national roles in the architectural metals industry, Matt brings his understanding of the market and its customers, knowledge of the supply chain, and his national, and international networks to enhance his ability to deliver to both the specifier and end-user needs.
