Different degrees of demountability can be achieved depending on edge design, installation method and the amount of integrated service installations.
The criteria for obtaining a long lasting ceiling are regular maintenance and cleaning in combination with dirt and dust repellent surface material.
A ceiling with good light reflectance and good light diffusion reduces the need for installed lighting. This results in improved energy efficiency and a better working environment.
The temperature and the relative humidity must always be considered when designing and choosing ceiling systems.
The indoor environment has a major impact on people’s health. The building materials, the ventilation, the furnishing, the cleaning routines and the activities are factors that all influence the indoor climate.
A long-term and purposeful approach is important to guarantee a product range with far-reaching environmental consideration.
