Healthcare & Pharmaceuticals
Within our product range we have created a special division that houses all the false ceilings designed for places with specific hygienic characteristics such as healthcare environments, pharmaceutical laboratories, food processing plants, canteens, professional kitchens and food stores.
We create BIO SANITAS false ceilings in pre-painted steel and aluminum in Sanitas White (similar to RAL 9003) and subject them to the Pro-Hygien treatment to make them antimicrobial and antibacterial. This type of painting has a double functionality:
– protects the surface of metal panels of the false ceiling;
– inhibits the proliferation of bacterial colonies and contributes to their destruction.
Thanks to these peculiarities, BIO SANITAS false ceilings are ideal for use in highly frequented environments where disinfection and sanitization are not practicable down to the smallest detail such as kindergartens, RSAs, public offices, sports centers,…
These types of false ceilings have been designed to facilitate maintenance procedures, for this reason they have a smooth surface that is completely washable and resistant to humidity.
The BIO SANITAS line is available in different models:
– inspectable false ceiling panels type Q6060 CLIP-IN mm.600×600 sealed joint for simple snap on hidden structure;
– BOXER type inspectable false ceiling panels, 600×600 mm, on a T24-15 mm metal structure;
– self-supporting LD type inspectable metal slats up to 3000 mm ideal for corridors, toilets and changing rooms. Available width of 200-300 mm, they can be closed side by side or closed with a shutter resting on the perimeter frames without suspensions.
These false ceiling models are made of non-combustible Euroclass A1 steel and aluminium, they have non-porous and non-hygroscopic surfaces. The products of the BIO SANITAS line are ideal for use in healthcare environments and where people spend several hours a day because they do not release microfibres harmful to health into the air.
