British Gypsum Metal Furring Ceiling Installation Guide
MF Ceiling
The Metal Furring System (MF Ceiling) is a suspended metal frame which allows for the direct fix of plasterboard sheets to create a smooth and seamless finish. The finished ceiling surface can be painted, vinyled or wallpapered. This combines the structural strength of metal with the versatility of plasterboard. Ideal for both new builds and refurbishing, metal furring offers a customisable system for any office space. MF Ceilings are a fantastic choice for their versatility, as well as offering outstanding value benefits over traditional timber systems, being at least 40% cheaper to buy and 50% quicker to fit.

MF Ceiling Kits & MF Ceiling Components
Why should I buy an MF Ceiling system?
Functionally, MF ceilings are often used as a method of holding insulation or other construction items between materials. For example, ceiling height may be varied to accommodate services or ducting such as providing a high performance ceiling with thermal and sound insulation. Specialist boards featuring holes and perforations can be installed with this system, designed to reduce echo and sound levels. Further benefits include the ability to install fire protection within the resulting void, meaning you can fulfill both design and safety requirements. Fitted with the right components, you can achieve a fire rating of up to 120 minutes, meaning you can also achieve safety requirements while incorporating a range of customisable benefits.
Ideal for both new builds and refurbishing, metal furring offers a customisable system for any office space. MF Ceilings are a fantastic choice for their versatility, as well as offering outstanding value benefits over traditional timber systems, being at least 40% cheaper to buy and 50% quicker to fit.

Due to the seamless finish, you have full decoration flexibility. Whether you want to paint, vinyl or wallpaper your space, the ceiling offers a blank canvas for you to customise as you wish.
Customisation
If access above the ceiling is required after the MF is installed then access hatches can also be incorporated into the ceiling. At Workplace Interior Shop, we stock a range of access hatches to ensure a seamless and slick design in your MF ceiling.
