Aluminum Honeycomb Panels for Interior Ceilings

Aluminum honeycomb panels can be used for interior ceiling applications.

Qitianmei currently focuses primarily on interior applications.

Ceiling panel selection should be considered together with panel dimensions, module layout, panel construction, surface requirements, the selected ceiling system, suspension or fixing requirements, openings and project requirements.

The final panel specification and supply scope are confirmed according to the actual ceiling project.

Interior Ceiling Applications

Aluminum honeycomb panels can be used as panel materials for interior ceiling applications.

A ceiling project should be considered as a complete system rather than selecting the panel independently. Relevant factors can include:

  • Ceiling dimensions
  • Panel / module layout
  • Panel construction
  • Surface requirements
  • Joint positions
  • Perimeter conditions
  • Suspension or support approach
  • Openings and ceiling-service interfaces
  • Access requirements
  • Project-specific supply scope

Application images are visual references unless specifically identified otherwise. They should not be interpreted as Qitianmei completed projects or customer installations.

Define the Panel for the Ceiling Project

Panel Construction

Panel construction is selected according to the ceiling application, panel dimensions, selected ceiling system, suspension or fixing requirements and project requirements.

The final construction should be confirmed as part of the complete panel specification rather than assumed from the ceiling application alone.

View Specifications & Customization

Panel Dimensions

Panel dimensions should be planned together with the ceiling dimensions and module layout.

Relevant considerations can include:

  • Joint positions
  • Perimeter conditions
  • Openings
  • Support or suspension arrangement
  • Installation requirements where relevant

Final panel dimensions are confirmed according to the project specification.

Surface Requirements

The visible Face Skin can be selected according to the required color, texture, gloss and overall ceiling appearance.

Face Skin and Back Skin can use matching or different surface finishes depending on the project.

Digital swatches, website images and screen displays are for selection reference only.

Final color, texture, gloss and visual appearance are confirmed against the approved physical sample and order specification.

Ceiling Layout & Module Planning

Panel module planning should be coordinated with the overall ceiling layout before the final panel dimensions and edge details are confirmed.

Depending on the project, the layout can be affected by:

  • Panel arrangement
  • Joint positions
  • Perimeter conditions
  • Lighting interfaces
  • Ventilation openings
  • Access locations
  • Selected ceiling support system

The final module arrangement is project-specific and should be coordinated with the selected ceiling system and other ceiling requirements.

Ceiling System & Suspension Considerations

Aluminum honeycomb ceiling panels form one part of the complete ceiling assembly.

The suspension, support and fixing approach depends on the selected ceiling system, panel layout and project requirements.

Suspension & Support

The suspension or support arrangement should be selected according to the complete ceiling design.

Hangers, support components, fixing points and related details depend on the selected system and project requirements.

Qitianmei does not define one universal suspension system for every ceiling project.

Carrier / Support Relationship

Carrier or support components may form part of the selected ceiling system where applicable.

Their form, arrangement and relationship with the panels are confirmed according to the project.

No single carrier, support rail or spacing arrangement should be assumed to apply to every ceiling system.

Panel Retention / Fixing

The panel retention or fixing approach is confirmed according to the selected ceiling system and complete ceiling design.

The appropriate method can vary according to the panel layout, support arrangement, edge details and project requirements.

No single fixing method should be assumed to apply to every interior ceiling application.

Profiles, Trims & Accessories

Profiles, trims, suspension components and other project-specific accessories can be discussed according to the selected ceiling system and project requirements.

Possible project-specific components can include:

  • Profiles and trims
  • Suspension components
  • Carriers or supports where applicable
  • Connectors
  • Retention or fixing components
  • Other ceiling-system accessories

Availability and final supply scope are confirmed separately for each project.

These components should not be assumed to be included automatically with standard panel supply.

Lighting, Ventilation & Openings

Lighting Interfaces

Lighting locations can affect the panel layout, opening positions and trim or interface coordination.

If the lighting dimensions and locations are already known, they can be provided during project planning.

Lighting fixtures, LED components, drivers, wiring and electrical systems should not be assumed to be included with standard panel supply.

Ventilation & Air Outlets

Ventilation or air-outlet locations can affect the ceiling layout and panel opening requirements.

Where known, provide the opening dimensions and locations so they can be considered together with the panel layout.

Ventilation equipment, ducts and complete HVAC systems should not be assumed to be included in the panel supply.

Other Openings & Ceiling Services

Access requirements, service openings and other ceiling penetrations should be considered during the ceiling-layout stage.

These requirements can affect panel dimensions, opening positions and project-specific processing.

Openings and other processing should not be assumed to be included automatically in standard panel supply.

Access & Removability Considerations

If the project requires access above the ceiling, access locations and panel-removal requirements should be identified during ceiling-system planning.

Whether individual panels are removable depends on the selected ceiling system and project design.

Where an access panel, access opening or specific removal arrangement is required, the requirement should be confirmed as part of the project.

No general assumption should be made that every ceiling panel is removable.

What Qitianmei Supplies

Qitianmei supplies aluminum honeycomb panels for interior ceiling applications.

Project-specific profiles, trims, suspension components or other accessory requirements can be discussed where required.

Availability and final supply scope are confirmed separately for each project.

Standard panel supply should not be assumed to include:

  • Complete suspension systems
  • Carrier or rail systems
  • Profiles and trims
  • Lighting profiles
  • LED components
  • Lighting fixtures
  • Electrical components
  • Ventilation equipment
  • Complete MEP systems
  • CNC machining or openings
  • Installation

Final panel, processing, accessory and installation scope is confirmed according to the actual project requirements.

What to Confirm for an Interior Ceiling Project

To help define an interior ceiling panel project, provide as much of the following information as possible:

  • Intended ceiling application / space
  • Ceiling dimensions
  • Panel / module layout
  • Required panel dimensions
  • Panel construction
  • Surface finish / appearance
  • Selected ceiling system, if known
  • Suspension / support approach, if known
  • Joint / profile requirements
  • Perimeter / trim requirements
  • Lighting locations, if relevant
  • Ventilation / air-outlet locations, if relevant
  • Access / removable-panel requirements, if relevant
  • Other openings / service interfaces, if relevant
  • Processing requirements, if relevant
  • Quantity
  • Delivery destination
  • Required panel / accessory / installation scope

If some details are not yet decided, provide the information already available.
