Ceilings

SUPALUX® can be used for non-combustible ceilings or fire-rated ceilings providing up to 240 minutes fire resistance. The wide range of ceilings with various options such as seamless and expressed joint details can be achieved using SUPALUX® boards. In instances where a SUPALUX® ceiling needs to be walked upon, a trafficable ceiling consisting of SUPALUX® and DURASTEEL® can also be installed (please contact Intumex Asia Pacific for further details).

Common SUPALUX® ceilings can be suspended or self-supported depending on requirements.
