Gypsum board: Lightweight, flexible and fire
resistant, gypsum is most commonly used for false ceiling. It is tough,
versatile and economical and is fast replacing other ceiling materials.
Metal ceiling panels: they are ideal for concealing
ducts and wiring since they can be easily installed and maintained. They
reduce overall cost since they are easy to install and access. They
have a monolithic look, which gives the space a very modern look and
blend with glass.
Fiber mineral reinforced materials: false ceiling
can be made with fiber or mineral reinforced tiles and fiberboard. They
have high insulation against sound and fire. The fiber increases the
hardness and the toughness of the material. Water repellents and
preservatives can be added to increase the life of the products.
POP (Plaster Of Paris) is also frequently used in
the construction of a suspended ceiling. First it is applied to a wood
base or fiberboard, and then it is perched from the false ceiling. It is
popular as it is lightweight and results in a smooth and uniform
finish.
Plywood sheets are used universally for their visual
appeal. These ceilings are created with stripes of ply nailed or glued
together. Because of their qualities, these ceilings are popular in a
place in a cold climate.
