Industrial ceiling tiles are important components to creating a safe working environment

Industrial ceiling tiles, such as used in production facilities, warehouses and distribution centers, are expected to meet a variety of requirements special to each industry.

Heavy industry has different requirements when compared to the food industry, the pharmaceutical industry or a liquid processing plant, all of which face specific acoustic and indoor climate issues that need to be controlled.

When designing production areas, many different criteria must be considered: industrial noise control, appropriate lighting conditions, enhanced safety, and, in some cases, high levels of hygiene.

Recommended Ceiling Tiles & Panels For Industrial Businesses

Improved acoustics with industrial style ceiling panels

Sometimes, a ceiling grid suspension system cannot be installed in the industry sector. This can be due to a directive not to cover a facility’s service installations and equipment. Introduci

Industrial ceiling panels selected for their high sound absorption help to decrease the negative impact of long-term occupational noise exposure and to prevent permanent hearing loss in workers. Well-designed noise control systems inside a building in the industrial sector can decrease the costs associated with personal hearing protection devices and litigation associated with permanent hearing impairment.

Industrial ceilings extend beyond the factory, ensuring confidentiality and focus.

Industrial drop ceilings are ideal for offices, conference rooms, training rooms, and cafeterias within large manufacturing centers. Sound-absorbing ceiling tiles paired with full-height walls enhance acoustic privacy for confidential conversations and support worker concentration. Additionally, our GREENGUARD®-certified stone wool ceiling products help maintain indoor air quality by reducing pollutants and contaminants, promoting a healthier workspace.

Optimizing Concentration with Reflective Ceilings

Lighting also plays a role in concentration. Even light diffusion provided by a highly reflective ceiling panel can help minimize distracting hot spots and glare on computer screens and equipment monitors. Ceilings with high light reflectance also help reduce energy consumption by more effectively dispersing both natural lighting and energy-efficient LEDs or other artificial light.

Good lighting, indoor environmental quality, and acoustics are all recognized as part of healthy, sustainable practices in LEED® certified facilities and other green buildings.

Protecting health and hygiene at industrial space

Concentration, cleanliness and hygiene can be imperative in the supply chain when it involves producing and storing medicine, food or other heavily regulated products.

Strict and rigorous health codes address the surfaces found in these industries to avoid spreading bacteria. The ability to clean and disinfect building materials, including ceiling systems, is essential to protecting the health of both those working in these spaces and the people receiving the products made or stored there.

All of our stone wool and metal ceiling products inherently resist water and do not support the growth of potentially harmful bacteria and microorganisms. 

Where extra protection may be needed in these sensitive environments, our Rockfon® Hygienic Plus™ range of stone wool ceiling products meet requirements that further minimize contamination risk. These products also meet low particle-emission requirements and have a clean room classification of ISO Class 5 (ISO 14644-1).
