Make the Difference
Armstrong® Ceiling Solutions are pre-engineered with attention to detail to ensure you control the finished aesthetic of the ceiling and achieve your design intent.
On every project you will encounter some, if not all, of these common conditions. This guide features pre-engineered integrated solutions offered by Armstrong Ceilings for each common condition.
We have compared our pre-engineered solutions to traditional construction methods, and presented the benefits to the design and build out process. By using these integrated solutions, you will be able to specify and maintain the crisp, clean details you envision, while solving everyday challenges for your installers.
