August 6, 2004—USG Interiors, Inc. has reached a new peak in ceiling system aesthetics, durability and performance with the introduction of SUMMIT CLIMAPLUS Ceiling Panels.
These new cast panels feature a finely textured appearance and an extremely durable surface that resists scrapes and scratches commonly caused by accessing the ceiling plenum. They are nearly three times more impact-resistant than regular finely textured ceiling panels, based on results of the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) D5420 Gardner Impact Test.
Available in a 2- by 2-foot size, the ceiling panels offer an excellent combination of noise reduction and sound attenuation. They have a .70 NRC (noise reduction coefficient) rating, and achieve a 40 CAC (ceiling attenuation class) level when installed with USG Interiors DONN Brand FINELINE or FINELINE 1/8 Suspension Systems. The panels are offered with a choice of either shadowline bevel or fineline bevel edges.
Available in a 2- by 2-foot size, the panels also feature excellent light reflectance properties (LR .82), making them a practical choice for all types of interior spaces. Recommended applications include offices, conference and lobby areas, corridors, schools, libraries, convention centers, hotels, healthcare facilities and airports.
SUMMIT Ceiling Panels are backed by a 15-year system warranty to withstand conditions up to 104 degrees F and 90 percent relative humidity without showing visible sag when used with DONN Brand Suspension Systems.
