Switching to eco-friendly building materials is the need of the hour, a response to the global cry for mitigating the climate crisis. Construction activities contribute to almost 50% of all greenhouse gas emissions worldwide.
Irrespective of the nature of construction, residential or commercial, the carbon footprint of traditionally used construction materials is immense. Embodied carbon of infrastructure draws a perspective of all toxic emissions such as C1, C2, C3, and C4 associated with extraction, transportation, manufacturing, and construction of infrastructure and its derivatives.
Coming from a strong belief that WASTE is WASTE only if you WASTE it, Shriti Pandey of Strawcture Eco decided to put the agricultural waste of straw, bagasse, and husk to make high-density construction boards. To play a small but significant role in reducing air pollution on account of stubble burning to create a sustainable solution that sequesters CO2 and has a negative carbon footprint during the manufacturing process, we have come up with a one-stop solution for all of you – Agribiopanels.
Ceiling – the high point of an enclosed space is often an afterthought to designers. However, it draws equal, if not better functional significance. It houses utilities that illustrate operational ambience and architectural luxury as well. Say, for instance, thermal, sonic and wellness quotient.
With centralized cooling and heating in commercial spaces and the need for flexibility of power points that require open wiring, Suspended ceilings have become an option of choice.
Suspended ceilings require a metal grid for the panels to rest on. These panels are used to house lights, speakers, AC duct supply, and occasionally even power sockets.
The suspended ceilings depending on the space, can be just a design element, functional ceilings, or a way to treat the sound signature of the room, that is, be used for the acoustic treatment of the room.
Ceilings play a significant role in defining the sound signature of the room, which means that they play a significant role in influencing the clarity of speech, floor noise levels, reverbs, etc. First, let’s look at how sound behaves in a room.
Find the benefits of agribiopanels suspended ceilings, the acoustic properties of agribiopanels & how they can be used to improve the acoustics of a space.
