Application

This system is recommended where humidity levels are occasionally high. Examples of applications: shower areas and swimming halls (under favourable and well-controlled conditions).

Description

Ecophon Hygiene Performance A C3 is a wall-to-wall, acoustic sound-absorbing ceiling system intended for environments where there is a risk for slight contamination, and where cleaning is required on a regular basis. This system is recommended where humidity levels are occasionally high. Examples of applications: Shower areas and swimming halls (under favorable and well-controlled conditions). The system is classified B1 and B5 for zone 4 according to standard NF S 90-351, and clean room-classified according to ISO 5.


The system consists of Ecophon Hygiene Performance A tiles, which have a core of high-density glass wool and a painted cleanable Akutex™ HS surface. The back of the tile is covered with glass tissue. The edges are primed. The supporting structure is a corrosion-protected, exposed Connect T24 C3 grid of specially treated steel with a high corrosion resistance.


The weight of the system is 3–4 kg/m² (20 mm) and 5 kg/m² (40 mm).


Features and benefits:

  • The tiles should be secured to the grid with Connect Hygiene clips in order to withstand pressure during cleaning, and to minimize dirt traps.
