Sag / Humidity Resistance
Sag/Humidity ResistanceProducts with sag and humidity resistance maintain a flat, attractive ceiling surface in areas prone to moisture. Standard: Appropriate for climate controlled interior spaces. Superior (HUMIGUARD Plus): Appropriate for non-climate controlled interior spaces. Ceiling panels with HUMIGUARD Plus performance maintain superior sag resistance and are recommended for areas subject to high humidity. Superior (Inherent): Some ceiling panels will naturally maintain a flat, attractive surface due to their material type. |
