Metal Ceiling Membranes (0.5 mm, without acoustic infill)

Knauf Ceiling Solutions metal ceiling systems are made from punched and formed galvanised steel, as comprehensive construction kits or individual components and industrially manufactured. The construction kit comprises the visible membrane and the substructure. The components (tiles) are offered with various edge details and delivered unperforated or with a range of perforation patterns, fulfilling the functional requirements. The substructure is either exposed or concealed.

The system components for metal ceilings are manufactured in a continuous manufacturing process. The sheet steel comes mainly in coils, gets optionally perforated, afterwards cut to size, punched, formed and powder-coated after the cleaning process. Punching and perforation waste is gathered, collected by local disposal companies, and redirected to the recycling centres. All production steps are carried out in accordance with the requirements and test guidelines outlined in EN 13964. The manufacturing plants are certified according to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. Technical data: Metal membranes are regulated by EN 13964 and have corresponding labelling and declaration of performance. The following data provide an overview of results: Declared unit: This EPD refers to a declared unit of 1 m² of average steel ceiling membrane with a thickness of 0.5 mm (Standard white RAL 9010) and a surface weight of 4.25 kg/m² without acoustic infill.

The described metal solutions are typically used internally as design elements, to cover the ceiling void, as well as acoustic solutions for sound absorption and sound attenuation, for fire resistance and against fire spreading, for cleanrooms and high hygiene requirements.
