Product Comparison - BCL Vs. Hunter Douglas Wood Linear Ceilings
| It is worth taking a moment to compare BCL's Acoustic Timber Panel Systems with some of the biggest brands on the market. Here we compare BCL panels to the largest manufacturer of timber ceilings in the world, Hunter Douglas. Below is a table comparing some of the key features and attributes between BCL and the Hunter Douglas 'Wood Linear' ceiling system. Colour Options A key difference between a BCL Acoustic Timber Panel System and the Hunter Douglas Wood Linear Ceiling System is the increased colour and species choices when selecting your timber and acoustic backing fleece. BCL offer over 50 timber species and over 20 backing colours, creating over 1000 different colour combinations for architects to work with. Combine this with pigmented lacquers and the design possibilities are endless...! Delivering Complex Surfaces However, most criticaly, BCL have fixing systems to allow the timber to be curved along the plane of the timber slats, rather than just 'faceting' panels around curves, perpendicular to the slat direction. This means that dramtic and often highly complex geometrical surfaces can be created in timber, curving in both x and y planes. BCL's dedicated design team can inspect lines of symmetry and create rational and efficient panel layouts which are sized to align with the grids and bays of your wall or ceiling Trapezoidal panels can be manufactured to form shapes with curvature in section and on plan, making complex curvi-linear and radial geometry acheivable on a large commercial scale. BCL also provide full installation services with all such projects, providng the depth, experience and security to deliver unique and breathtaking surfaces in timber, efficiently and to the highest quality. |
