Stretch ceilings firmly held high positions in the list of the most common building decoration materials. Due to the variety of textures and materials, each buyer will be able to choose the option that will most fully meet all the requirements of the interior.
The fabric ceiling is widespread relatively recently, but is rapidly gaining new fans. The material for this type of ceiling decoration is a synthetic fabric, which is additionally impregnated with special compounds to improve its quality characteristics. Due to this, the range of presented models in this category is quite extensive and can offer a wide selection of colors to even the most sophisticated buyer. In addition, an important feature that only a fabric ceiling has is the possibility of individual artistic painting of the canvas.
However, before choosing this type of coating, you must carefully study its advantages and disadvantages. This will help to find out whether such a ceiling is suitable for you, as well as evaluate the features of its installation. Fabric ceilings have the following advantages:
1. Environmental friendliness. Both the material of the synthetic fabric and the solutions impregnating it are absolutely harmless to humans and their pets.
2. The presence of "breathing" pores. This material in its structure has many micropores, thanks to which air freely penetrates through the coating of the stretch ceiling.
3. Seamlessness. The width of the roll of fabric blanks can reach 5 meters. This means that in a room with a width not exceeding the specified, seamless fabric ceilings will perfectly complement your interior. If a larger width value is required, then the presence of seams on the finished product is inevitable. Therefore, it all depends on the preferences of the customer.
4. The fabric ceiling stoically withstands the effects of minus and even sudden temperature changes.
Unfortunately, there are also many shortcomings. But often, as you know, this is what becomes the reason for choosing competitive material. For example, a fabric ceiling absorbs odors. This means that its installation in kitchen and dining rooms, to put it mildly, is not recommended. The same can be attributed to rooms where smokers are often located. And if you consider this issue on a more global scale, the fabric ceiling is unsuitable for installation in public catering establishments.
The second drawback is the difficulty of leaving. Such coatings are difficult to keep clean, in addition, it is necessary to use special compositions so as not to damage the structure of the stretch ceiling.
The fabric ceiling allows moisture to pass through, which means that if you are flooded with neighbors, you will immediately know about it. To some extent, this is for the better, but you still have to change the coverage.
The final list of shortcomings can be called high cost. Since the material has recently appeared on the construction markets, then its price will be quite large.
