Can acoustic ceilings be painted?

Acoustic ceilings can be painted over, but painting will reduce the Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) because the paint blocks the pores or the surface used to absorb sound energy. The extent of the reduction depends on the type of paint, paint film thickness, and the number of coats applied. If you want colored acoustic ceilings without significantly compromising performance, the most recommended method is to choose the desired shade during the manufacturing or installation stage, such as the Seamless Acoustics system or Trandar's Acoustics ZIVANA panels, which support custom color selection from the start rather than repainting later.

How much do acoustic ceilings cost? Here are 7 factors that affect ceiling prices!

Acoustic ceiling prices in the Thai market vary because they depend on multiple factors. Generally, they range from a few hundred baht per square meter for entry-level grades to over a thousand baht per square meter for premium imported grades with high NRC values and international standards. The 7 main factors determining the price are: (1) Main material type, (2) NRC value or sound absorption performance, (3) Size, thickness, and edge detail, (4) Pattern and surface texture, (5) Certification standards, (6) Source of production, imported or domestic, and (7) Installation labor cost including framing systems. Exact prices should be calculated based on the area and specifications of each project.

What is NRC? What NRC value is suitable for a meeting room?

NRC stands for Noise Reduction Coefficient, a standard metric used to indicate the "sound absorption" efficiency of a material. It is measured by the average sound absorption at frequencies of 250, 500, 1000, and 2000 Hz, which are the primary frequency ranges of human speech.

Fire Resistance Testing Standards for Building Materials: How Do Different Countries Test Them?

When talking about "fire-resistant materials," many people might think there is a single global standard. In reality, each country has different testing systems and grading criteria, even though they measure the same thing: "fire safety." This article explores the main standards from 6 countries and regions referenced by architects and engineers worldwide.

Paying More for High-Quality Ceilings: Is It Really Worth It?

When comparing two types of ceilings side by side, where one is 20-30% cheaper than the other, the immediate question that pops into almost everyone's mind is, "Why pay more when they look pretty much the same?" The short answer is that the price on the quotation is only the initial cost of the entire lifecycle, not the total cost.

"Acoustic Materials": Are They Really Safe or Just Good at "Sound Absorption"? What Designers and Business Owners Must Know Before Installation

When talking about "acoustic materials", many people only think about echoes, noise, or sound quality in a room. However, there is another dimension that is often overlooked: fire safety. In reality, the materials installed across ceilings and walls are among the largest "fuel sources" within our living and working spaces.
