Technical info
ACCESSIBILITY: The tiles are demountable. Minimum demounting depth according to installation diagrams. The tiles are secured using Hygiene Clip 20 (40) to allow for effective in-situ cleaning. The clips are easily removable from above the ceiling. A tightly sealed, easy-to-open Hygiene Inspection hatch is available to simplify access to the ceiling void.
CLEANABILITY: Daily dusting and vacuum cleaning. Weekly wet cleaning and high-pressure washing twice a year. Can withstand the use of common disinfecting chemicals.
LIGHT EFFICIENCY:White 010, nearest NCS colour sample S 0502-Y, 84% light reflectance (of which more than 99% is diffuse reflection).
INFLUENCE OF CLIMATE: The tiles withstand a permanent ambient RH up to 95% at 30°C without sagging, warping or delaminating (ISO 4611). A higher temperature/moisture is permissible during washing.
INDOOR CLIMATE: Certified by the Indoor Climate Labelling, recommended by the Swedish Asthma and Allergy Association, and can be used in rooms classified as ISO class 5/M2.5.
ENVIRONMENTAL INFLUENCE:Granted the Nordic Swan eco-label. Fully recyclable.
FIRE SAFETY: Reaction-to-fire classifications.
