Have you ever looked up at a ceiling and wondered what purpose those tiles hanging above your head serve?

Do you know the importance of ceiling and what is its function? PRANCE will take everyone to find out!

1. Make up for the shortcomings of the original building structure

If the floor height is too high, the room will appear empty, and the ceiling can be used to reduce the height; if the floor height is too low, the ceiling can also be used to make the room "higher" by using visual errors. Some original building roof beams and heating pipes are unsightly when exposed to the outside. The above deficiencies can be covered up by suspended ceilings, making the top surface neat and orderly without clutter.

2. Enhance decorative effect

The function of ceiling suspension can enrich the top surface shape, enhance the visual appeal, and make the top surface treatment personalized, thus reflecting the unique decorative style.

3. Hidden pipelines

The suspended ceiling can hide many pipelines, and can also reserve installation parts for lamps, which can produce a lighting effect of point light, line light, and surface light that complement each other, adding a lot of color to the interior.

4. Heat insulation

If there is no insulation layer in the building on the top floor, in summer, the sun will shine directly on the roof, and the interior will be like a steamer. An insulation layer can be added through the suspended ceiling to achieve the function of heat insulation and cooling. In winter, it acts as a thermal insulation layer to prevent indoor heat from escaping through the roof.

5. Divide space

Suspended ceiling is one of the means of dividing space. Through suspended ceiling, two connected spaces with the same height can be made into different heights, thereby dividing two different areas. For example, the small conference room and office area in an office space are separated by a suspended ceiling. Even though the division of labor between the two parts is clear, the lower space remains coherent and transparent, killing two birds with one stone.

6. Convenient to supplement light source

Some original buildings have a single lighting circuit and simple lighting fixtures, which cannot create an ideal lighting environment. The suspended ceiling can hide many pipelines, and can also reserve the installation position of lamps, which can produce a lighting effect of point light, line light and surface light that complement each other, adding a lot of color to the room, enriching the indoor light source level, and achieving a good lighting effect. , convenient for supplementing the light source.

The ceiling has a strong decorative effect whether it is used in home decoration or industrial decoration. It is both practical and decorative.

Of course, when choosing materials, you cannot use them indiscriminately. It depends on the place and specific place it is used, such as bathrooms, kitchens, offices, etc. You need to consider its performance, whether it is waterproof, oil-resistant and environmentally friendly.
