The product has a high reflectivity of 86% which increases daylight levels in occupied spaces, compared to standard levels of reflectivity, considered to be 80% (Source: GBCA). The ceiling tiles integrate into a standard T-Bar ceiling system and have a painted white finish with various perforation patterns available. Product absorbs 55-60% of the reflected sound in the space which aids reduction of ambient noise levels.
