Ceilings By Design now supplies Armstrong DataWorks DataStruct: a next-generation heavy-duty ceiling grid system engineered specifically for data centre environments. As data centres continue to push density, load, and performance limits, traditional ceiling grid systems are no longer fit for purpose. Standard commercial grids were never designed to carry extreme point loads, support dense service…
Commercial insulation is critical. Acoustic comfort impacts productivity and wellbeing. Thermal insulation performance impacts energy efficiency and running costs. Yet across Australia, plenty of projects are set up incorrectly from day one, because insulation is either overspecified (wasted money, overengineering) or underspecified (non-compliance, acoustic issues, thermal inefficiencies). For architects and specifiers, this creates a challenging…
A ceiling grid system is the backbone of a commercial fit out. It sets the stage for your tiles, lighting layout, acoustic performance, access points and the overall look of a space, so choosing the right system matters. Whether you’re building new or retrofitting an existing tenancy, understanding grid profiles, materials, load ratings and finish…
Office acoustic solutions are becoming a core part of how architects shape modern workspaces, especially as open-plan layouts continue to battle noise, distraction, and poor speech clarity. With a crowded market of acoustic products, narrowing your options can be time-consuming. Baffles and panels remain two of the most efficient office acoustic solutions to control noise.…
Across Australia, feature baffle ceilings are emerging as a defining design element. Architects are turning to baffles, not just for acoustic performance, but for the design and dimension freedom they offer. A statement without the constraints of full ceiling coverage. With the rise of acoustic baffle systems, we’re seeing an industry shift toward ceilings that…
Ceilings By Design is proud to announce the launch of its new branded vapour permeable membrane (VPM), a Class 4 vapour permeable wall wrap designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern commercial construction and Australia’s harsh weather. We know how challenging it can be to coordinate multiple suppliers while staying on schedule and on…
Acoustic feature walls are transforming modern interiors, and Autex Verve is the latest addition to the Autex Acoustics lineup that’s perfect for this application. Unlike traditional acoustics that are supposed to be undetectable or unnoteworthy, Verve is designed to be seen. It still performs, cuts down reverb and reduces noise, but instead of blending into…
If you’ve worked with glass wool insulation, you know it offers great thermal and acoustic performance, but it’s often messy, irritating, and uncomfortable to handle. That’s why more builders are choosing polyester insulation for fit outs where clean installation and crew comfort matter. At Ceilings By Design, we supply both glass and polyester, but when…
Every builder has that product, the one that saves hours, keeps jobs tidy, and makes life easier. If you haven’t used Studco StrongArm wall brace yet, consider this your sign. StrongArm is a heavy-duty steel wall brace that’s quick to install, built to last, and often replaces the need for custom structural steel. That’s time…
