SUSPENDED CEILING SYDNEY 

A suspended ceiling system installation, often referred to as ‘dropped ceilings’ or ‘false ceilings’, have been commonly used in many different building types for years.

The main benefit of dropped ceiling or suspended ceilings in Sydney is to provide a clean, smooth finish to the internal ceiling of a room, whilst hiding electrical wiring, pipework, structural framing joists, thin metal frames, steel grid, and other utilities.

A suspended ceiling system is the most cost-effective solution to provide a clean, smooth ceiling structure finish. It also acts as an effective sound barrier and insulation. Suspended ceilings allow for a wide variety of ceiling systems and can be fire-rated for safety. Additionally, suspended ceilings can contribute greatly to the light quality of a room.

Other key benefits include:

Acoustics

The ceiling can act as an effective sound barrier between floors, or with the use of sound absorbing tiles, can work very effectively at improving the general acoustics of a room.

Insulation

Simply installing suspended ceilings in Sydney, whereby the ceiling height within a room is reduced, will act as an effective means to ‘trap’ the warmer air within the room and reduce it being lost into the top of the ceiling. This has the added benefit of making the space more energy efficient and saving on energy bills, like air conditioning costs.

Design/Aesthetics

The flexibility in styles and designs of suspended ceiling panels allow customers to choose from a wide variety of finishes.

Safety

In some instances, such as corridors used for fire escapes, fire rated ceilings in Sydney will be required. A fire-rated ceiling will have been tested by the manufacturer to retain structural integrity for a set period of time (usually 30 or 60 minutes) and indicates how effectively the ceiling can hold back fire and prevent it from spreading from room to room.

Lighting

The quality of light in a room contributes greatly to it’s look and feel. Poor lighting in any room can lead to eye strain, fatigue and headaches which will in turn reduce productivity and comfort. Ceiling tiles have a light reflectance score published by the manufacturer as a percentage. Ceiling systems with a high light reflectance can return up to 90% of the light back into the space, compared to around 75% for standard suspended ceilings in Sydney.
