What is a Suspended Ceiling?
Often referred to as a “drop ceiling,” a suspended ceiling is a secondary ceiling installed below the main ceiling. This design creates a sleek and modern appearance with a space between the original and the new ceiling. Ideal for various sectors and settings, including:
- Offices
- Retail Units
- Hospitals
- Schools
- Industrial Units
Benefits of a Suspended Ceiling
- Modern and Stylish: Transform traditional buildings into chic offices by opting for suspended ceilings with white tiles. This choice ensures a bright and spacious office environment throughout the year. They also conceal HVAC systems, electrical wires, pipework and other utilities to create a clean, sleek look.
- Cost-Efficient: Suspended ceilings can improve the thermal performance of a building by preventing heat from escaping through the ceiling. This helps maintain a consistent room temperature and reduce energy. Suspended ceilings can reduce the heating demand by up to 25% in office buildings which translates to significant cost savings and lower carbon emissions.
- Soundproof and Acoustic: Acting as an effective sound barrier between floors, suspended ceilings enhance acoustics. Sound-absorbing tiles can further improve sound quality, making them suitable for noisy office and retail environments.
- Fire Safety : In areas such as corridors or fire escapes, it’s imperative to install a fire-rated ceiling that guarantees structural integrity for a designated period, commonly 30 or 60 minutes. This rating signifies the ceiling’s capacity to resist fire, preventing its swift progress between rooms.
- Well-Lit: They can accommodate various types of lighting fixtures, such as LED panels, spotlights, recessed lights, and pendant lights. Choosing a suspended ceiling with high light reflectance improves room lighting. Ceilings that reflect up to 90% of light enhance productivity and comfort.
