Open Cell Ceilings
Open Cell ceiling systems comprise a series of open cell modules designed to lay onto a suspension grid. The ceiling tiles can integrate within other metal ceiling systems and plasterboard ceilings. Our open cell ceilings are designed and built to the highest standards and provide an exceptional level of build and acoustical quality. Open cell ceilings can provide a flexible option for a wide range of projects.
Why Choose Open Cell Metal Ceilings?
The first reason is aesthetics. Open cell ceilings can create a visually pleasing roof to any space. Most commercial office spaces and other larger areas use a plenum system to allow air ducts, cabling, and more to go along the ceiling. This is obviously not always very nice to look at. An open cell ceiling covers all of this up but because of how it can be designed it can also use shadows and light to create something much more than just a ceiling. Our design team is here to help you create a ceiling that people look at and that brings a positive feel to the space.
Open Cell Ceiling Applications
Open cell ceilings are especially useful for buildings with small plenum depths and prove very popular in such spaces. They are also applied where there is a desire to make give a room a lower ceiling without actually changing the roof height. An open cell ceiling can be used to bring the roof line down while maintaining the original space. Wherever something light and flexible in its design is needed we can create an open cell ceiling to suit. This type of metal ceiling is suitable for the leisure industry, schools, offices, and corporate buildings as well as public spaces.
