PLANKS

Stretch Metal Planks are a versatile design material that allows architects to create a striking visual effect with their interior metal ceiling design. The wide choice of patterns, materials and colours can give a project a unique appearance.

General Information

Why Planks?

Luxalon® Stretch Metal planks are ideal for projects where either a high level of acoustic absorption is required or where visual and physical transparency of the ceiling is requested. The systems are also ideal for environments where regular access into the plenum is required.

Characteristics

  • Installation as lay-on planks, in G-grid or Hook-on
  • Virtually unlimited choice in mesh types offering versatility in ceiling design
  • Plank dimensions up to 500mm in width and 2800mm in length
  • Strong acoustic performance when combined with acoustic pads
  • Easy access to the plenum and installations above the ceiling
  • An impact-resistant version is available for sport hall applications

Application

Stretch Metal planks are suitable for all building sectors including corporate, transport (airports, metro, bus & train stations) retail, leisure, public space, hospitality, healthcare, education and residential.

Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Design & Inspiration

Luxalon® Stretch Metal is a highly versatile material that can provide an array of extra visual effects to a ceiling. Individual customization of a ceiling can also be achieved by varying the types of mesh, their arrangement, the lighting and the colour.

The standard colour range consists of 225 RAL and NCS colours. A large number of the RAL colours are available on a short delivery time. In addition, there are several special metallic colours and chrome finishes available from the Stretch Metal palette. Other special colours are available on request.
Material characteristics

Luxalon® Stretch Metal lay-in/lay-on tiles are designed to be installed on conventional T-grid systems (T-profiles widths 15 and 24 mm). Luxalon® Stretch Metal tiles on T-profiles enhance the modular design pattern. By using wider grids or deeper recesses more distinctive patterns are created.

Acoustic information

Using acoustic pads on top of the Stretch Metal tiles offers exceptional acoustic performance. The thickness of the pads can be selected dependent on the required acoustic values. The acoustic absorption value can reach αw = 1 with an acoustic pad of 85 mm.

Health and wellbeing

Hunter Douglas contributes to sustainable buildings through aesthetic solutions that enhance comfort and save energy. Promoting health and wellbeing of their occupants is arguably the most important function of buildings. Buildings are not constructed just to be energy efficient. Our shading solutions promote the use of healthy daylight without the hindrances of glare and thermal discomfort. Our acoustic ceilings are a key element in the provision of acoustic comfort.

Sound materials

Environmentally sound materials are key to sustainable buildings. Our strategy is to pick materials that have good environmental properties to start with. Many of our products are made of aluminum produced in our own smelters. We’ve optimized our processes to use up to 99% of recycled content to produce the right alloy for our products. Our wood is FSC certified and we embrace the Cradle to Cradle principle in our product development.

Energy savings

Reducing the energy use of the total building stock is key to the prevention of global warming. Most modern office buildings use more energy for cooling than heating. Effectively managing the solar energy that passes through the transparent part of the façade is a key strategy in the prevention of overheating in both old and new buildings. Our high performance shading solutions bring substantial energy savings, while at the same time promoting health and wellbeing.

Corporate Social Responsibility

Keen on Green is an important company-wide initiative to reduce energy consumption, water usage and our overall carbon-footprint. We embrace the ISO 14001 framework to actively manage our Keen on Green objectives. Hunter Douglas and its employees actively support the communities in which we live and work, as well as those on a more global scale. Business is people. We pride ourselves on our worldwide network of experienced, intelligent, passionate and creative people that have consciously chosen Hunter Douglas as their employer.
