Choosing the Right Ceiling Systems for Your Space

When designing commercial interiors, choosing the right ceiling systems can make or break the success of a fit-out. Whether you need fast installation, strong acoustic performance, or a standout visual feature, there’s a solution to suit every project.

1. Trident Grid with Mineral Fibre Tile

For a classic, efficient option, pair the standard Trident ceiling grid with our Apex mineral fibre tile. This combination is a reliable go-to in many commercial ceiling systems. It offers quick turnarounds, easy installation, and great sound absorption. Installers appreciate the speed and simplicity of this setup.

1. Black Trident Grid with Metal Mesh Tile

Create a high-impact look using the black Trident ceiling grid with black square metal mesh tiles. This option delivers striking visual appeal and is perfect for feature ceilings. You’ll see it in projects like Ingleburn Bowling Club – pictured above. Combine it with the Apex Black tile for enhanced acoustic performance in design-forward ceiling systems.

3. Narrowline Trident Grid with Square Open Cell Panels

Looking for a seamless, modern appearance? Use square open cell panels with the Narrowline Trident grid. These ceiling systems offer a monolithic look without complicated installation methods. The narrow profile of the grid almost disappears, delivering a clean finish ideal for retail or hospitality spaces.

4. Top-Hat Modular Grid with Pinnacle Mineral Fibre Tile

For minimal, open-plan designs, the Top-Hat aluminium grid paired with the Pinnacle mineral fibre tile (CBE edge) is a top choice. This setup suits larger areas needing sleek and simple ceiling systems. Thanks to the new C-shaped spline, you can remove a single tile without disturbing the whole grid module—saving time and hassle on site.
