ABP is a worldwide leader in manufacturing and marketing acoustical ceilings and suspension systems for commercial and residential applications. The business mix is nearly 90-percent commercial, with approximately two-thirds in improvement projects and the balance in new construction, which includes offices, healthcare, education, retail, transportation and other segments. The residential market, more than 10-percent, is primarily in home improvement and remodeling projects. In 2001, ABP introduced i-ceilings®, a new generation of ceilings that invisibly integrates sound and wireless systems into the ceiling plane.
