While ceilings can be made with various types of plastic and in myriad configurations, this article discusses ceiling panels and tiles made from rigid vinyl or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) sheets 0.33 or 0.76 mm (0.013 or 0.03 in.) thick. Flat sheets are thermoformed under heat and pressure to create decorative surfaces. Forming also imparts depth to the thin material, sufficiently stiffening panels to span between conventional ceiling suspension grid members.

LEDvance, meanwhile, was born as the lamps business carved out of Osram less than two years back (https://bit.ly/2Hwy6a8). As we covered in an L+B news story, a tiny slice of the 2016 LEDvance L+B space featured luminaires whereas 80% of 800 m2 (Fig. 2) was luminaire-focused this year (https://bit.ly/2Hwysxu).

In addition to LED downlights and horticultural grow lights, Light Polymers will be launching a red-light therapy beauty care product line this fall. Using low-cost blue LEDs, Light Polymers’ advanced down-conversion films are capable of delivering therapeutic red light at a much lower cost than previous technologies. Light Polymers has recently demonstrated a red-light therapy film on 660nm.

Apparently, products that have existing Energy Star and/or QPL status are not being impacted. New products, including those that are in the active submission queue, will not be approved if the LM-80 data came from the Citizen lab, and that effectively means all lighting products based on Citizen packaged LEDs are ineligible for the programs at the moment.

Finally, product selection must be made in comparison to other available products. Thermoformed ceilings weigh as little as 0.49 kg/m² (0.10 psf)—approximately 80 per cent less than mineral fibre and gypsum board ceilings. This represents a significant reduction of manufacturing resource requirements. Additionally, transportation impacts are reduced because panels and tiles are lightweight, thin, and nest for compact packing. Five times as many panels can fit on a truck compared to 19-mm (3⁄4-in.) thick mineral fibre panels.
