1.    Insulation

   

mineral ceiling tiles is more than six times that of gypsum board, which contributes to maintaining room comfort and results in savings in terms of cooling and heating costs. The K-value of Daiken is 0.045 and the thickness is 15mm, therefore the R-value is 0.333. This R-value of 0.333 can be added to the thermal insulation R-value requirement for the area.

2. Acoustics (NRC)

Thanks to the tiles’ high noise reduction coefficient (NRC), 55% to 60% of sound is absorbed within the room and the reverberation time of soundwaves are reduced, making a pleasant office environment.

3.    Acoustics (CAC)

In addition to the good absorption mineral fiber board has a high ceiling attenuation coefficient (CAC) of 36 decibels which equates to less sound transfer from room to room. “Together these acoustic qualities make it easy to create comfortable interior spaces,” notes Capco’s Barry Gould.

4.    Fire resistance

The mineral fiber ceiling tiles are also non-combustible and do not emit toxic gas or smoke, melt, break or become deformed under normal fire conditions, thereby protecting ceiling areas from fire.

5.    Humidity
It further boasts a high RH99 relative humidity resistance rating for projects that require the highest demands and a fast-track building program.

6.    10 year guarantee
It is for this reason that the we guarantee mineral fiber ceiling tiles for ten years against visible sagging in temperatures up to 50°C and conditions where relative humidity reaches as much as 99%.

7.    Aesthetics: homogenous look

Mineral fiber ceiling tiles come in four unique face patterns: New NDF (non-directional fissure), Constellation and Venus Perforated, which are suited to a wide variety of commercial applications.

8.    Easy to use

Although specified for its excellent noise reduction, thermal insulation properties and outstanding fire resistance, it is the ease of handling and durability of the range of mineral-fibre ceiling tiles that makes it one of the ceiling contractors’ favourite commodity panels.
