PRANCE metalwork is a leading manufacturer of metal ceiling and facade systems.
Vietnam’s varied climates, from Hanoi’s seasonal rains to Ho Chi Minh City’s persistent humidity, make material choice critical. Aluminum ceilings outperform gypsum in several key ways: moisture resistance, longevity, and flexibility for modern architectural expression. Unlike gypsum, aluminum does not absorb moisture, swell or promote mold growth — a major benefit in humid Vietnamese interiors and coastal projects in Da Nang or Nha Trang.
Aluminum systems are lightweight relative to equivalent gypsum assemblies and allow for larger unsupported spans, enabling seamless linear or open-cell designs favored in contemporary commercial fit-outs. They also integrate HVAC diffusers, lighting, and acoustic cores without compromising structural integrity. For premium corporate offices and hospitality venues, anodized or painted aluminum finishes deliver a refined metal aesthetic that remains color-stable and is easier to clean than gypsum surfaces.
From an operational perspective, aluminum’s modular panels are demountable for rapid access to services, reducing maintenance disruption and long-term repair costs. Aluminum also supports bespoke perforation patterns and custom finishes that align with Vietnamese branding and interior narratives. For projects pursuing durability, hygiene, and modern visual identity, aluminum ceilings present a compelling alternative to conventional gypsum.
