Selection guide

  • Acoustic comfort
  • Fire resistant

The advantages of the system

  • Aesthetics: ceiling with a discreet and uniform appearance
  • Hygiene: good water, air, and particle permeability can be enhanced by implementing a joint between panels
  • Acoustics: high sound correction, absorption coefficient αw up to 1 (NRC = 1)
  • Access: removable from below for plenum access using a specific tool
  • Safety: Fire-Resistant ½ h and ¼ h to comply with regulations in common areas of high-rise buildings (IGH)

Description


  • Wall-to-wall closed suspended ceiling composed of clipped panels on concealed carriers
  • Steel panel type Clip-In with seamless edges and chamfered angles (possible sharp) with a edge strip on all 4 sides allowing clipping even in case of cuts
  • The secondary T carrier where the panel clips in is connected to a primary U carrier by a very simple to install linking hanger allowing easy adjustments between carriers
  • Acoustic additions available as an option
  • Fire-resistant ceiling: refer to the installation guide Monobac Fire-Resistant and always refer to the test reports and extensions available upon request

    • Suspensions and fixings to the supports must be selected according to the intended class

    Refer to the Implementation page in the Product Catalog Annexes for more details.

  • Cleanability

    By nature, our metal ceilings require minimal maintenance. However, various types of cleaning are still possible. Please refer to the Maintenance page in the Product Catalog Annex for more details, including advanced high-pressure and dry steam cleaning.

  • Reservations, integrations

    The ceiling must not support any other load than its own weight. Various equipment (lighting, ventilation, sound systems, signage, etc.) can be hung from the main or secondary building structure using hangers passing through the ceiling with minimal clearance. This secondary structure must then be checked under operating conditions, by testing or calculation according to the current standards referenced in the CSTB report.

  • Opening

    Access to the plenum by unclipping the panel from below using a specific disassembly tool.

  • Resistance to disinfection chemicals

    Our metal ceilings are resistant to sodium hypochlorite 2.5%, hydrogen peroxide 6%, or ethanol 70% disinfectants (according to EN 12720 and ISO 11998 standards).Refer to the Maintenance page in the Product Catalog Annexes for more details.
