How are stretch ceilings installed?

Each stretch ceiling is designed to meet individual project requirements, making our job to install them just as important. Your stretch ceiling is attached to your room via aluminium track which connects to all four walls. However, if the ceiling is to cover a large space, then aluminium tracks will be fitted as intervals across the ceiling so that we can connect the fabric panels.

What is the benefit of using a stretch ceiling?

There are a range of benefits to using stretch ceilings. The use of stretch ceilings offers a combination of aesthetic appeal, durability, versatility, and ease of installation. This makes stretch ceilings a popular choice for enhancing the look and functionality of interior spaces.

What stretch ceiling fabric options are there?

• Translucent Stretch Ceilings – NGA’s translucent stretch ceilings are used together with rear illumination to create custom light boxes. We’d recommend that the product is used in conjunction with the NGA transparent stretch ceiling which acts as an insect/dust trap thereby assisting with maintenance.
• Translucent Stretch Printed Ceiling – A printed translucent stretch ceiling is a suspended ceiling system that combines the benefits of a stretch ceiling with the addition of printed designs whilst offering a translucent or semi-transparent finish. It offers a unique way to incorporate customised artwork, graphics, or patterns into a room’s ceiling while allowing light to pass through.
• Lacquer Stretch Ceiling – A great option to amplify natural light and can be used with fibre optics. Can also be complemented with decorative lights. It is designed to create a smooth and flawless ceiling surface with a glossy or satin appearance.
• Matt Stretch Ceiling – The matte finish is a timeless, classic look. Instead of a shiny or reflective surface, a matt stretch ceiling provides a more subdued and velvety appearance to the ceiling.
• Satin Printed Stretch Ceiling – Satin finishes have a pearly, light-reflecting sheen so they’re the perfect balance of gloss and matte ceilings. Ideal for making any room feel a bit bigger and brighter without the high impact factor of gloss.
