We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Ceiling", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Buildingtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Gyptone acoustic ceiling boards fly high from British Gypsum, which we summarised at the time by saying "British Gypsum's Gyptone acoustic ceiling boards have provided a major feature in a chapel renovation, being submitted for a USAF international design award". The same day, we featured the news release New lay-in recessed luminaire Part l compliance from Cooper Lighting and Security: "Cooper Lighting and Safety has updated and redesigned its popular Crompton Modulay range of recessed luminaires, adding Part L compliant versions".
 
In February 2008, we covered the news from Knauf AMF concerning its AMF ceiling systems - take a look at Progressive Academy selects AMF ceilings which says: "Greenwood Academy in Dreghorn, due for completion later this year and features 12,000m2 of AMF ceiling systems installed in all classrooms and circulation areas".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Rockfon, Leisure facility with Rockfon acoustic solutions, as well as Hiross proves most flexible in MEP Awards from AET, and SAS chilled ceiling system for Limerick Hospital from SAS International.
