SEFAR LIGHTFRAME® Now Configured to Meet .90 NRC Value

New and Improved Fabric Ceiling System Provides Supreme Translucency and Sound Absorption

Publish Date: Wednesday, May 25, 2016

DEPEW, NY… SEFAR® Architecture introduces a new configuration of its SEFAR LIGHTFRAME® illuminated modular fabric ceiling system that allows the system to produce an industry-leading NRC value up to .90.

After extensive product testing, the standard configuration of SEFAR LIGHTFRAME was modified to meet the highest levels of sound absorption and noise reduction without sacrificing the product’s supreme translucency and quality of light.

This acoustic improvement to SEFAR LIGHTFRAME allows the product to deliver an ideal solution for interior spaces – a sound-absorptive ceiling that also delivers true, usable light. The most common applications of SEFAR LIGHTFRAME are offices, museums, libraries and other large interior spaces that are heavily trafficked yet must remain quiet, sophisticated, and pleasantly lit.

SEFAR LIGHTFRAME is the only fabric ceiling system available that can provide both significant light diffusion and acoustic improvements, while allowing the ceiling to open for access to the plenum. Its dual membrane configuration prevents the penetration of debris that hinders the visual impact of other translucent ceiling products. In addition, each SEFAR LIGHTFRAME module pivots to a vertical position for ease of cleaning and fixture maintenance.

The fabrics that make up SEFAR LIGHTFRAME are permanently UV-resistant and colorfast, highly translucent, acoustically significant, VOC free and Class A fire rated. They have a low weight per square meter and impressive functional and aesthetic qualities thanks to Sefar’s optimized technical specifications for fabric manufacture and light transmission.

SEFAR® Architecture, the manufacturer of SEFAR LIGHTFRAME, has an exclusive partnership with Decoustics®, the custom acoustic product division of CertainTeed Ceilings. Since late 2013, Decoustics has been offering the full distribution of SEFAR LIGHTFRAME to its nationwide network of architectural and design clients.

“Having the ability to specify this newly classified NRC value of 0.90 on our LIGHTFRAME product line enables Decoustics to continue to meet our clients expectations for the highest product and quality standards within our industry,” says Simone Abele, Director of Sales and Marketing for Decoustics.
