Stretch ceiling brands. The best manufacturers of stretch ceilings: which company to choose Producers of materials for stretch ceilings

Let's take a closer look at such a topic as manufacturers stretch ceilings... The existing set of products for arranging stretch ceiling structures indisputably testifies to the growing competition between manufacturers of PVC films and fabrics for stretch coverings, and which one is better and more reliable, you can only answer by getting to know the products offered by the companies. To draw up the most complete picture about this product and its manufacturer, it takes more than one day spent in search, clarification and consultation. In this article, we will try only to place some informational guidelines indicating how a high-quality product for the manufacture of curtain surfaces should differ and which companies have already confirmed their reliability with time and the quality of their products. This is necessary, because the most often worried about the selection of suspended ceilings are questions about the names of companies, which one is better and which canvas is still worth choosing?

A bit of history

The birthplace of modern stretch ceilings is considered to be Western Europe, where they were most widespread in the 60s of the last century. Although similar designs using fabrics were used in Ancient Rome and medieval Armenia, the modern look, tension structures acquired relatively recently. Europe to this day deservedly remains the trendsetter for suspended coverings, constantly improving technology and material quality.

The functional qualities and reliability of modern structures are determined by a number of significant factors:

• the quality of the fabric used;
• the quality of the bearing profiles used for the construction of the frame;
• availability of acceptable warranty conditions provided by the manufacturer;
• warranty service provided by the installer installing the ceilings.

Manufacturing companies

On the domestic market of stretch ceilings, curtain cover manufacturers from Germany, Belgium, Italy and of course France have settled very well. Products offered by suppliers from these countries are distinguished not only by excellent quality, but also by high cost. If the focus is on the desire not to surprise someone with the high cost of the interior, but with its neatness, then inexpensive products for Chinese-made surfaces are quite suitable, with which there is probably no one to compete in terms of price. Another powerful and constantly growing group of manufacturers of stretch fabrics is represented by domestic factories and enterprises located in the near abroad: Kazakhstan, Ukraine and Belarus.

European firms

The experience of European companies with a long history is especially valuable, since they use the latest scientific developments in the field of polymer chemistry and the latest technical achievements.

1. BARRISOL NORMALU is a French manufacturer. The company was founded as NORMALU SA in 1969. It occupies a leading position in the production of stretch ceilings using the harpoon method. The first stretch ceiling at the enterprise was manufactured back in 1969. The appearance of the BARRISOL brand dates back to 1975, from which the constant popularity of the company began to grow, despite the fact that it offers the consumer a rather narrow range of products. Today the company has more than 80 patents, which testifies to its constant development and striving to be a leader in the implementation of innovations in the field hanging structures... The disadvantage for Russian customers is perhaps a rather long lead time of about 1 month. Also, the company's products are distinguished by a rather high price, which can be 15% higher than that of other European companies.
2. EXTENZO is also a French company. It appeared in 1996. At the beginning, the core of its activity was only sales, installation of surfaces and related services. EXTENZO's products have been repeatedly highly appreciated at various international exhibitions and have received many awards. The quality level of manufactured products belongs to the elite class. Today the company is distinguished by the fact that its products can be installed at a distance of only a few millimeters from ceiling slab, maximally preserving the useful volume of the room. It should be noted the breadth of the lineup, and the abundance of stylistic proposals. The company catalog contains a description of about 130 ceiling design options. The lead time for delivery of stretch cover can vary from 3 days to 3-4 weeks.
3. NEWMAT S.A.S. - like the two previous ones, the company represents France. It has existed for about 24 years, during this time it has formed a very powerful international sales network. According to ratings, this commercial organization is one of the first in popularity among manufacturers of paintings. The fact that NEWMAT products deserve attention can be seen by referring to the numerous pictures. The technologies of this company are distinguished by creativity and novelty and are capable of surprising fashion lovers. The company's goods are marked with the CE mark, confirming the European conformity. The list of surface decoration options offered by NEWMAT includes natural compositions, Venetian plaster, compositions for natural wood and etc. The special NEWGRAPHIC technology is used to create images on elastic material with a matte texture. The warranty period for such products reaches 10 years.
4. PONGS TEXTIL is a German stretch cover manufacturer offering both fabric samples and PVC film coverings. The fact that the company produces both types of products distinguishes it favorably from other serious manufacturers. PONGS TEXTIL is particularly proud of its Descor brand of polyester Trevira fibers impregnated with polyurethane. These ceilings are distinguished by good fire and moisture resistance and dust-repellent properties. It is also interesting that for the installation of Descor you do not need an expensive heat gun, and they are installed in the so-called "dry" method. Such canvases can be painted independently in desired color with acrylic-based paints about 10 times.

Chinese products

There is a lot to write about stretch cover manufacturers from China, but our goal is to understand how acceptable as a product. In most cases, there is a set of typical difficulties with a similar product. For example, there may be no warranty documents confirming that the canvas is made in accordance with environmental safety requirements and does not pose a threat to consumer health. Then the buyer can only count on being lucky.

With the multiple availability of low-quality goods from China, it must be said that there are many relatively inexpensive, in comparison with European, products from the Middle Kingdom, which differ in remarkable characteristics. You just need to make sure that they are not made in a clandestine factory and that they have all the necessary documents.

Dishonest traders, taking advantage of the ignorance of buyers, give out cheap Chinese-made canvases for goods from Europe. They are completed with frame systems made in Europe. For such a "mix" the consumer pays as for first-class coverage, absolutely not suspecting anything about the fraudulent scheme. In case of problems, the eminent European manufacturer turns out to be extreme. Although if all certification documents were checked during the purchase, such deception could possibly have been avoided.

On a note: It is useful to remember that when purchasing a stretch ceiling and ordering its installation, it is better to cooperate with the same organization, because then it will be easier to solve all technical issues.

Today, domestic stretch ceilings manufacturers have significantly increased the quality of the final product. We especially highlight the quality of the frame elements. The use of high quality raw materials from Europe helped to achieve this.

Installation of stretch ceilings is the most common type of decoration today.

Today, domestic and foreign manufacturers of stretch ceilings are represented on the construction market.

The average consumer is unlikely to be able to distinguish between ceilings made by different manufacturers. To be able to determine the manufacturer by the quality of the material, the countries in which they are made, you need to know characteristics canvases.

Distinctive features of manufacturers:

• Domestic manufacturer. Produces canvases 1.4 meters wide. This is the only available size. This manufacturing technology makes it possible to create a canvas with a uniform density and paint coating. The Russian manufacturer does not have the opportunity to use expensive large-format equipment, with which it is possible to produce larger and higher-quality canvases by adding special additives to them. In texture, ceilings are offered in two types: matte and glossy. The colors have a sufficient color palette to make a choice. Glossy canvas reflects light less efficiently, in contrast to foreign paintings.
• Chinese manufacturer. Distinctive feature manufacturers from China is their bad reputation. However, it is important to remember that Chinese stretch ceiling companies represent qualified manufacturers who have proven themselves well. When dealing with a Chinese product, it is important to be able to distinguish between serious firms with a well-known name, from small manufacturers, whose product is not good for anything. If we talk about real manufacturers from China, then they provide material made from certified film, the size of which can have any acceptable width and texture. The quality guarantee provides for 12 years of reliable service. Prices are higher than Russian ones, but the result in the form of seamless stretch ceilings is worth it.
• European manufacturer.France and Germany represent this category on the market. For example, a well-known German company - Pongs. The films from these manufacturers are characterized by high quality, perfect appearance, variety of textures and colors. If the domestic manufacturer has dozens of color shades, then the European ones have hundreds. Stretch fabrics from foreign manufacturers have the highest cost.

Manufacturers engaged in the production of stretch ceilings have their own strengths and weaknesses, this should be taken into account when choosing ceilings of different production.

It's important to remember that trying to save money can damage the entire renovation as well as the budget. Choosing a low quality material, you can be sure of only one thing - its appearance will reflect the price category.

Everyone chooses for himself which manufacturer to choose. First of all, the choice is influenced by personal experience, taste preferences, expectations and pricing policy.

How to install stretch ceilings: company reviews

Choosing a manufacturer for stretch ceilings is not an easy task. After that, there will be at least easy choice - a trading company that will mount the canvases. On the Internet, you can find diverse reviews of companies that are engaged in installation.

When reading reviews, it's important to remember that every opinion is subjective. Ultimately, only personal opinion should be taken into account, trying to find out as much as possible about the company directly from its representatives.

When deciding which company to choose, it is important to pay attention to your own expectations, to indicate this to the contractor before starting work.

Reviews about companies:

• Genvik. Negative feedback about inappropriate behavior, low quality of work, disrespect for clients.
• "ArtDesign". Quality work done on time.
• "SD-Eurostyle". High quality work.
• "Grandee". High quality service and installation.
