Calla Health Zone Ceilings

Armstrong Calla
September 11, 2019

With the introduction of new Calla Health Zone ceilings, Armstrong Ceiling & Wall Solutions is making its smoothest line of mineral fiber panels available for healthcare, clean room, and food service applications.

In addition to a smooth, white visual, Calla Health Zone panels are water-repellant and scrubbable, meeting USDA/FSIS guidelines for use in food processing, kitchens, and clean room assemblies. The panels exceed FGI Guidelines for acoustics and cleanability in general healthcare spaces and help address HIPPA requirements.

Total Noise Control and Floor Plan Versatility

Calla Health Zone panels feature Total Acoustics performance, providing total noise control and floor plan versatility. With an NRC of 0.80 and a CAC of 38, Calla Health Zone offers an excellent combination of acoustical performance with exceptional noise blocking. As part of the Sustain portfolio, the panels meet the most stringent sustainability compliance standards today.

Calla Health Zone panels feature a clean, consistent finish and edge details and are available in both lay-in and square tegular designs. DESIGNFlex options include made-to-order sizes that are ready to ship in as little as three weeks.

The panels are impact-resistant, scratch-resistant, and soil resistant, and are safe for use with disinfectants. They are a USDA-Certified 91 percent Biobased Product and have a 30-Year Limited System Warranty against visible sag, mold, mildew and bacterial growth. The panels can be recycled through the Armstrong Ceilings Recycling Program at the end of their service life.
