CI/SfB (35) Sm1 July 2012 X edge Changing the way you see concealed ceiling systems Bella Sky Hotel, Bella Center Ørestad DK
Herlev Hospital, Oncology Department Herlev DK Isn t there one ceiling tile that does it all? Absolutely with Rockfon s new X edge. The all-new X edge from Rockfon creates a concealed-grid ceiling with a modern near-monolithic design. X edge is available in two surfaces, smooth or micro-textured, and in a selection of sizes and colours. Perfect for new projects or renovation on existing 24mm grids, Rockfon X edge offers fast, flexible and efficient installation with standard or custom lighting and ventilation accessories and all tiles are easily demountable - in any order. The vast majority of interior ceilings require what X edge offers: optimum sound absorption for acoustic comfort, fire safety, humidity resistance and ease of maintenance. It truly is the multipurpose tile that does it all.
Bella Sky Hotel, Bella Center Ørestad DK
Solbjerg Garden Retirement Centre Frederiksberg DK What is there to see here? Not much just as we had hoped. At first glance, a Rockfon X edge ceiling doesn t look like a modular tile ceiling at all. The seam between tiles has been reduced by 25% compared to previous Rockfon concealed-grid systems, creating a near-monolithic design. X edge tiles are available with a smooth or micro-textured surface in bright white or a variety of colours. Standard module sizes of 600 x 600, 1200 x 600 and 1800 x 600 (mm) are available, and custom sizes and special colours can be ordered on demand. Tiles of any size can be mixed and matched to make the best use of any space.
Carbon Hotel Genk BE White is used everywhere... why not colours? Choose from a rainbow of colours. Styles and trends seem to change faster than design can keep up with. Some designs, however, never go out of style a smooth seamless surface, for example. Rockfon s near-monolithic X edge is available in white, of course, but also a range of 34 exclusive yet standard colours from the Rockfon Color-all range. Creating just the right visual and acoustic balance in today s education, work, healthcare, retail and entertainment environments is very important especially in areas where reflective white is not desired: theatres, cinemas, night clubs, drama classrooms, cosy restaurants or hotel lobbies. Rockfon X edge offers unparalleled freedom to be as common or original as desired, all without ever sacrificing on design or performance.
Bella Sky Hotel, Bella Center Ørestad DK Fast, flexible installation... As you would expect from a Rockfon ceiling system. Installation guide System X Rockfon s X edge is ideal for new-build projects as well as fast renovation on existing 24mm suspended ceiling grids simply remove the original tiles and replace with an X edge ceiling. Other concealed-grid systems require special consideration and measuring for the placement and cutting of tiles, but the symmetrical design of X edge provides quick lay-and-go installation. Installation is possible using both traditional suspended ceiling solutions and direct-mount using unique X-Hooks creating a mere 31mm installation height yet all still fully demountable. Refer to the System X installation guide for more information and watch our video to see just how easy X edge tiles are to install. www.rockfon.co.uk/installation/ installation+videos.
1. Remove existing tiles 2. Replace with Rockfon X edge 3. Renovate with a near-monolithic demountable ceiling
Herlev Hospital Patient Hotel Herlev DK So it s demountable... but where to start? Start anywhere you need to really. Every X edge Rockfon tile, whether suspended or direct-mounted, is easily demountable no sliding left and right, no tools or placement consideration required. Just demount it. Even at the incredibly small installation depth of 31mm using X-Hooks, built-in spot lighting is possible while maintaining demountability. Above that beautiful, near-monolithic ceiling can be a wealth of hidden installations... or nearly nothing. With Rockfon X edge, access and maintenance has never been easier or faster. Also, with Sonar X edge tiles there is no directional pattern to match up so tile sizes can be mixed and rotated to visually handle corners and bespoke layouts.
Danish Transport Authority Copenhagen DK What about built-in lighting and ventilation? Have we got a bright idea for you... Standard light and ventilation accessories integrate easily with X edge, but Rockfon has also worked in partnership with light manufacturers to create custom solutions for Rockfon s X edge that move far beyond the traditional full-tile square or rounded installations. Some of them even incorporate ventilation and lighting in the same installation, reducing the ceiling s visual clutter. All these systems integrate easily almost seamlessly with the X edge module size and installation depth. We ve done the design work so you don t have to.
