Stretch ceilings have firmly taken high positions in the list of the most common building finishing materials. Due to the variety of textures and materials, each buyer will be able to choose the option that will best meet all the requirements of the interior.
Fabric ceiling has become widespread relatively recently, but is rapidly gaining new fans. The material for this type of ceiling finish is a synthetic fabric, which is additionally impregnated with special compounds to improve its quality characteristics. Due to this, the range of models presented in this category is quite extensive and can offer a wide range of colors even to the most sophisticated buyer. In addition, an important feature that only a fabric ceiling has is the possibility of an individual artistic painting of the canvas.
However, before choosing a similar type of coating, you must carefully study its advantages and disadvantages. This will help you figure out if this ceiling is right for you, as well asevaluate the features of its installation. Fabric ceilings have the following advantages:
1. Environmental friendliness. Both the synthetic fabric material itself and the solutions impregnating it are absolutely harmless to humans and their pets.
2. The presence of "breathing" pores. This material in its structure has many micropores, thanks to which air freely penetrates through the stretch ceiling coating.
3. Seamless. The width of the roll of fabric blank can reach 5 meters. This means that in a room not exceeding the specified width, seamless fabric ceilings will perfectly complement your interior. If a larger width is required, then the presence of seams on the finished product is inevitable. Therefore, it all depends on the preferences of the customer.
4. The fabric ceiling stoically withstands the effects of sub-zero and even sudden changes in temperature.
Unfortunately, there are also many shortcomings. But often, as you know, this is the reason for choosing a competitive material. For example, a fabric ceiling absorbs odors. This means that its installation in kitchens and dining rooms is, to put it mildly, not recommended. The same can be attributed to rooms where smokers are often located. And if we consider this issue on a more global scale, then the fabric ceiling is unsuitable for installation in catering establishments.
The second drawback is the complexity of care. Similar coatingsquite difficult to keep clean, in addition, it is necessary to use special compounds so as not to damage the structure of the stretch ceiling.
The fabric ceiling allows moisture to pass through, which means that if your neighbors flood you, you will immediately know about it. To some extent, this is for the better, but you still have to change the coating.
The final list of disadvantages can be called a high cost. Since the material has recently appeared on the construction markets, its price will be quite high.
