Caracteristics & Performance

Caracteristics & Performance

Acoustic absorption

  • αw up to 0.85 (NRC = 0.85) with the ALPHA range
  • αw up to 1 (NRC = 1.00) with the ALPHA PLUS range

Discover our video "Acoustic Metal Ceilings" in the Documentation/Videos section.

Acoustic filling

  • ALPHA Offer: as standard, a black PLAFOMETAL veil is thermally bonded to the back of perforated ceilings.
  • ALPHA PLUS Offer: two filling options are available. Specific surface-insulated for optimal performance or specific bagged insulation to avoid fibers.

The acoustic performance of ceiling systems is guaranteed for defined products, controlled, and fully delivered by PLAFOMETAL.

 

Light Reflexion

  • Up to 87%.

Fire reaction

According to standard EN 13501-1 :

  • Euroclass A1 for non-perforated pre-coated products
  • Euroclass A1 for pre-coated products from the ALPHA range
  • Euroclass A2-s1, d0 for non-perforated powder coated products
  • Euroclass A2-s1, d0 for powder coated products from the ALPHA range
  • Euroclass A2-s1, d0 for products from the ALPHA PLUS range

Chemical resistance

Metal ceilings are resistant* to sodium hypochlorite 2.5%, hydrogen peroxide 6%, or ethanol 70% disinfectants. However, we particularly recommend certain disinfectants based on the type of ceiling:

  • Sodium hypochlorite 2.5%: no visual changes on all ceilings
  • Hydrogen peroxide 6%: only black post-lacquered ceilings show minor visual changes, no visual changes are observed on other ceilings
  • Ethanol 70%: only white pre-lacquered, black post-lacquered, and wood finish ceilings show minor visual changes, no visual changes are observed on other ceilings

This also applies to all pre-lacquered/post-lacquered steel or aluminum products from the ALPHA, ALPHA PLUS, and DECIBEL offerings.*exposure according to EN 12720; disinfection and wet abrasion according to ISO 11998
