Product Criteria
Design requirements
Polyfon Mesh™ provides a creative mask to the plenum, roof, floor or soffit above, which remains open to air circulation and lighting options. Its open-cell design allows visibility into the plenum for security in airports and other transport hubs.
Its lightweight construction compared to other heavier open-cell materials allows for lighter seismic ceiling requirements. In the unlikely event of dislodgement during an earthquake, its soft composition will not harm any occupants.
Made in NZ for short lead times, installation and replacements.
Installation requirements
Polyfon Mesh™ is simply installed into exposed grid suspended ceiling systems, whether a new installation or a retro fit.
In-ceiling products are not to be supported by the tile, and must be independently supported.
Polyfon Mesh™ can be installed in conditions up to 95% RH and 35º C.
Maintenance requirements
Polyfon Mesh™ requires no special maintenance other than cleaning for aesthetic or cleanliness reasons.
Warrantees
Polyfon Mesh™ is covered by a 15 year limited warranty against manufacturing defects.
