Sag Resistance
ROCKFON ceiling tiles are dimensionally stable even at high humidity levels of up to 100% relative humidity and can be installed at all temperatures ranging from 32 °F to 104 °F. No acclimatization is needed. ROCKFON ceiling tiles can be installed during the very early stage of the build (when windows are not fully sealed) without any risk of deflection of the tiles. The low weight, stability and non-hygroscopic character of ROCKFON tiles will limit the weight of the fully installed ceiling whilst retaining its declared properties even when applied in infrequently heated and unheated rooms without condensation.
