Architect in charge at Ashton Sixth Form College made full use of Ecophon's innovative architectural ceiling tiles.
The well proven product met and exceeded the performance requirements of the specification and those of main contractor, P J Walls.
The installation of over 8,000 square metres of Gedina 600 x 600 mm tiles has been carried out by Specialist Ceiling Sub-Contactor Sidney McElhinney Ceilings Ltd.
The Director in charge of the project for Moloney O'Beirne, Mr David Clark, expressed satisfaction at the outcome and considered that the ceilings looked extremely good.
Confirming his desire to utilise the Ecophon tiles, the owner of the ceiling specialist, Sidney McElhinney, said: "Gedina is very definitely a superior product and one we have used successfully before.
Both Trinity College and the consultants are delighted with the way the ceilings have turned out." Despite being considered a true classic by people in the industry, Gedina has been the subject of continuous development; underpinning and extending its excellent physical properties.
The product is also highly flexible in its application and easy to install.
Ecophon's technical sales manager in Ireland, Adele Povey, reflects: "I was confident in putting forward a higher performance product that also offered a significant higher acoustic performance. Request a free brochure from Ecophon ...
The glass strands make Gedina stronger than the rock mineral products available from other manufacturers, meaning both handlability and life cycle are enhanced.".
