Ceiling panels increase fire rating

Class-A fire-rated panels from WoodTrac are available in three finishes: Abbey Oak, Bank Alder, and White/Paintable. Panels can be installed in any 2x2-foot or 2x4-foot suspended ceiling. The manufacturer has provided three profiles of moldings: Tear Drop, Colonial, and Cove. Moldings can be installed over any 15/16-inch or one-inch-wide ceiling grid. Panels can be combined with any molding profile and molding finish to match the desired look. Class-A panels are made of 3/8-inch-thick fire-rated board laminated on both sides with high-definition micropaper.
