Perforadas

Perforadas is the feminine plural form of the Spanish adjective perforado, used to describe objects, surfaces or structures that have holes or perforations. The term comes from perforar, meaning to bore through, with roots in Latin.

The word is widely used across disciplines to indicate a structural or functional feature rather than a specific object. In architecture and design, perforated surfaces such as panels, screens or facades allow light diffusion, ventilation and acoustic control while contributing to visual texture. In industry, perforated metal sheets, plastics or ceramics are employed for filtration, screening, weight reduction and aesthetic purposes, often in combination with ventilation or separation requirements.

In art and decoration, patterns or textures created by perforation appear in textiles, ceramics and metalwork, adding rhythm and translucency to objects. In biology and medicine, perforadas can describe tissues, membranes or samples that display pores or openings, used descriptively to convey a porous or perforated characteristic rather than a defined structure.

Overall, perforadas functions as a descriptive term applied to a broad range of materials and forms where the presence of holes, openings or porosity is a defining feature. The concept is closely related to perforación (perforation) and to terms such as lámina perforada and malla perforada, which specify more particular types of perforated materials.
