Suspended Ceilings

A suspended ceiling is the finishing touch that transforms a bare industrial space into a comfortable, professional working environment. By creating a clean, level ceiling line below the structure above, a suspended ceiling conceals pipework, ducting, cabling and the underside of mezzanine floors, while improving insulation, acoustics and lighting and giving offices and rooms a smart, modern appearance.

Practical benefits as well as good looks

Beyond their tidy appearance, suspended ceilings offer a number of practical advantages. The void above the ceiling tiles provides a convenient, accessible space to run services and light fittings, and individual tiles can be lifted at any time for maintenance without disturbing the rest of the ceiling. The tiles themselves can be chosen to improve thermal insulation, helping to reduce heating costs, and to absorb sound, which is particularly valuable in open plan offices, meeting rooms and reception areas.

A wide choice of tile finishes, grid colours and edge details is available, from plain economical boards through to high specification acoustic, hygienic and moisture resistant tiles for kitchens, washrooms and food preparation areas. Recessed lighting, ventilation grilles, speakers and detectors can all be integrated neatly into the grid to give a fully coordinated finish.

The ideal partner to partitioning and mezzanines

Suspended ceilings work hand in hand with our partitioning and mezzanine floor systems. When offices are created on a warehouse floor or beneath a new mezzanine, a suspended ceiling completes the rooms, providing the comfortable, insulated, well lit environment that staff expect while concealing the structure and services above. Designing the partitions, ceiling and lighting together ensures everything lines up neatly and works as a single, considered scheme, with no awkward gaps or mismatched details where the different elements meet.

Where fire performance is required, fire rated ceiling systems and tiles can be specified to provide the necessary protection, and we can advise on the appropriate solution for your particular project. Our experienced installers carry out the work cleanly and efficiently, with minimal disruption to your day to day operation.

A comfortable working environment

The difference a suspended ceiling makes to a working space is immediate and striking. A bare industrial roof with exposed services feels cold and unfinished, whereas a neat, level ceiling with integrated lighting instantly creates rooms that feel warm, professional and welcoming for staff and visitors alike. The improvement in insulation helps to keep heating bills down, while acoustic tiles reduce noise and make offices and meeting rooms far more pleasant places to work.
