Ceiling cladding demonstrates the use of outdoor products indoors. By far the most common ceiling lining material is plasterboard.
However, for a decorative ceiling you can turn to cladding. Cladding, by definition, is a decorative skin. There are many types of cladding which can achieve a timber look. Cemintel Edge Cladding is a good choice for a painted timber look, with 5 styles of grooved panel to choose from.
Two ingredients for a light and bright open plan living area are vaulted ceilings and skylights. Create a delightful feature by lining ceilings in cladding panels. Replacing plasterboard with fibre cement ceiling cladding for living areas and even kitchens isn’t difficult. The main challenge is lifting into place. Fibre cement cladding panels are heavier than plasterboard. It’s a good idea for builders or installers to use a panel lift during installation.
In alfresco areas the application changes from a ceiling lining to a soffit lining. Cemintel Soffitline® gives a similar aesthetic to plasterboard. Being fibre cement, it’s better able to handle moisture. For a more designer soffit vertical joint cladding panels are a good choice.
