Exterior Open Ceilings



EXTERIOR OPEN CEILINGS

Exterior Open Ceilings are the ideal solution for designers wishing to create a striking design, without compromising the sense of a spacious environment. Open ceilings can create a range of appearances, depending on the angle they are viewed from. This adds an additional level of interest to the ceiling void.



WHAT ARE EXTERIOR OPEN CEILINGS

Open Ceilings are developed using vertical panels to create segmentation and gaps in the ceiling void. The vertical panels add colour and a directional effect to the ceiling. The space between the panels gives the illusion of an open feel, adding space and dimension to the ceiling area. Panels can be used in a wide range of applications providing architects with the freedom to design a special finish to the ceiling void.

OPEN CEILING VARIATIONS

As open ceilings are created using panels, different layouts, colours, panel sizes and joints can create a whole range of designs. Vertical panels are designed to dimensionally enhance the ceiling plane. You can use an open ceiling to add visuals lines and patterns, without giving your space a ‘closed off’ feel.

CEILING PANEL COLOURS

Luxacote® is an exclusive Hunter Douglas innovation. This coating consists of 3 expertly put together layers. These form a long lasting coat making them corrosion, abrasion and scratch resistant. This topcoat enhances the durability of exterior aluminium for building applications. Our ceiling panels are available in a wide range of colours.

LINEAR OPEN CEILING QUALITY

Our focus on quality (ISO9001 and TAIM certified) ensures the highest standard of production processes, material, machinery and finished product. The superior durability of Hunter Douglas products translates into lower costs during the life cycle of the product.

WIND RESISTANCE

Our Exterior Ceilings have been extensively tested against varying wind loads by TNO, the Netherlands. Wind load calculations allow us to easily use our span tables. These tables support the engineer in developing the optimal and most economical hanging construction for the designed exterior ceiling.
