Stretched ceilings are not a new word in interior design, but recently they have become increasingly popular. And all because these materials have a lot of advantages over other types of repair of the upper floor. This is an impeccable appearance, and there is no need to tear off the old coating and level the ceiling. And if earlier the cost of such products was quite high, today there is a tendency to reduce it.
Low prices for stretch ceilings today are a reality, not a fantasy. After all, the market offers goods from different manufacturers: prestigious Western firms and more affordable Chinese ones. You can also find different types of ceilings, which differ in appearance, materials, method of attachment. For example, the metropolitan company "Ecos-Style" offers customers fabric and film ceilings with a glossy, matte or textured surface. In addition, it is possible to order seamless stretch ceilings. We will pay a little more attention to them.
Features of thisceiling
Seamless stretch ceilings are the ideal solution for the most demanding client. They do not have any irregularities, roughness, seams or other defects (if the installation was carried out correctly by an experienced specialist), so they are easy to confuse with a plastered surface. But in order to make such a ceiling with plaster, it takes a lot of time, materials and a skilled craftsman, almost a virtuoso. And his services are very expensive. But seamless stretch ceilings are another matter, not so troublesome.
Such a ceiling is a single panel made of either polyester fabric or PVC (polyvinyl chloride) film. In the first case, it will be a perforated fabric treated with a special impregnation based on polyurethane and polystyrene. PVC film has long been known to the consumer as the most popular packaging material. Latex options also belong to this type of suspension systems.

Varieties of ceilings
It doesn't matter which stretch ceilings (seamless) the client chooses: matte, glossy, textured (satin). All of them are good in their own way. For example, matte surfaces will help create a traditional, like a whitewashed ceiling.
