Things Are Looking Up at Outwater with the Introduction of Many New Decorative Ceiling Panels

Things Are Looking Up at Outwater with the Introduction of Many New Decorative Ceiling Panels

Klarm Prototyping


Bogota, NJ (PRWEB) April 29, 2014

Things are looking up at Outwater [Outwater Plastics Industries, Inc. + Architectural Products by Outwater, LLC] with the introduction of many new Decorative Ceiling Panels comprising a host of different materials, designs and colors to accommodate a wide range of residential and commercial applications.

Outwater has chosen to highlight those Decorative Ceiling Panels that acquired the most significant attention and positive feedback at the recent 2014 International Builder’s and Kitchen & Bath Shows.

1) Acrylic Ceiling Panels

The Summer Solstice and the phenomenon of the ensuing Midnight Sun, where the sun is visible for as long as 24 hours per day, only takes place for a finite period of time in the most northern and southern latitudes.

For those desiring random images of soft white clouds against a light blue sky with a bright, open airy ambiance in “perpetuity,” but who are otherwise either unable or unwilling to relocate to anywhere near the Arctic or Antarctic Circles, Outwater is pleased to introduce its new series of Acrylic Ceiling Panels.

Imagine not only having the year round opportunity to turn on the serenity and beauty of a magnificent Summer Sky at your fingertips, but also being able to fully enjoy it in the temperate, climate controlled interior surroundings of your home or office.

Offered as 2-ft. x 2-ft. panels, with six randomly mixed sky patterns, or 2-ft. x 4-ft. panels, with four randomly mixed sky patterns, Outwater’s Acrylic Ceiling Panels are designed for easy “drop in” use with standard 15/16-in. suspended ceiling channel grid systems.

An impervious, low maintenance and easy to clean surface renders Outwater’s Acrylic Ceiling Panels waterproof, mildew-resistant as well as germ and bacteria-free.

2) Stamped Steel Ceiling Panels

Think Green! Build Green! Save Green! Outwater has turned back the clock with its new offering of finely crafted, highly detailed tin-free, premium quality Stamped Steel Ceiling Panels.

Having combined the perfect mix of both texture and nostalgia with the timeless elegance and decorative grandeur of the past, Outwater’s Stamped Steel Ceiling Panels enliven contemporary and traditional fashions alike by providing charm and beauty to any room with a variety of historically accurate Victorian to Art Deco period inspired designs from which to choose.

Manufactured of lightweight 30 gauge, .010-in. thick chromium treated tin-free steel comprising 30% recycled materials, Outwater’s Stamped Ceiling Panels are available in 2-ft. x 2-ft. lay-in and 2-ft. x 4-ft. nail-up formats with complementary Filler Panels and 4-ft. Cornices for easy installation using traditional nail-up and suspension methods.

Outwater’s Stamped Steel Ceiling Panels are offered either uncoated or in an array of five different finishes. For additional authenticity, steel cone head nails are available for nail-up applications.

3) Thermoplastic PVC Ceiling Panels

Outwater’s highly detailed, Class-A Fire Rated Thermoplastic PVC Ceiling Panels not only enable a perfect, professional 2-ft. x 2-ft. and 2-ft. x 4-ft. glue-up or lay-in installation by anyone without their ever having had any prior experience in fabricating ceilings, they are available in a variety of different traditional and contemporary finishes to accommodate any décor.

Handled similarly to Outwater’s aforementioned Acrylic Ceiling Panels, Outwater’s Thermoplastic PVC Ceiling Panels are designed to be installed over the exposed surface of one’s old, existing discolored and water stained ceiling panels.

Not only impact, chemical and scratch resistant, Outwater’s Thermoplastic PVC Ceiling Panels can be easily cut with common household scissors, utility knives or razors for further customized fabrication to accept most lighting, ventilation, water sprinkler and surface mounted speaker systems.

When used with standard 15/16-in. suspended ceiling channel grid systems, Outwater’s lightweight formed Thermoplastic PVC Ceiling Panels can be effortlessly “dropped” into ceiling grids using just hold down clips, or, if being utilized to replace existing ceiling panels, they can be easily installed leaving the old panels intact for additional stability and thermal insulation without the need for hold down clips.

Because Outwater’s waterproof Thermoplastic PVC Ceiling Panels are mildew-resistant as well as germ and bacteria-free, they never require any follow up maintenance, readily enabling their use in difficult to access applications.

Outwater also offers corresponding snap-on 15/16-in. suspended ceiling channel grid covers as a low cost alternative to replacing or repainting rusted, stained or deteriorated metal grids.

4) Versa Tile Ceiling Panels

As a result of great advancements in China manufacturing technology in conjunction with lower production and materials costs, Outwater’s newly updated version of its original Versa Tile Ceiling Panels are practically indistinguishable from the look and feel of real plaster ceiling tiles.

Now offering even better quality than Outwater’s previous Versa Tile Ceiling Panels at 40% of their original cost, Outwater’s revolutionary, new line comprises lightweight, nonpolluting, thoroughly biodegradable rigid polyurethane that simply “drops in” to standard 15/16-in. suspended ceiling channel grid systems without the use of hold down clips, and as with Outwater’s Thermoplastic PVC Ceiling Panels, easily conforms to accept most lighting, ventilation and surface mounted speaker systems.

Like wood ceiling panels, Outwater’s Versa Tile Ceiling Panels are durable enough to be tooled and even refinished as desired. However, unlike ordinary gypsum and plaster ceiling tiles, Versa Tile Ceiling Panels won’t break, stain or chip.

Additionally, because Versa Tile Ceiling Panels are dimensionally stable as well as impermeable to moisture and insects, they require no maintenance, not only making them suitable for indoor or outdoor use, they are backed by a lifetime warranty against China manufacturing defects.

Walttools Now Makes It Easy For a Decorative Contractors to Turn Concrete into Their Business Card

Walttools Now Makes It Easy For a Decorative Contractors to Turn Concrete into Their Business Card

Klarm Prototyping


Morris, IL (PRWEB) August 15, 2014

Plain gray concrete is everywhere and most people do not care who put it there. Decorative concrete, on the other hand, has been growing in popularity every year and is being installed in both residential and commercial settings every single day. People like what people see and are very interested in knowing who can do that type of work for them. As architects, designers and contractors continue to see the possibilities that decorative concrete can offer, this trend will certainly continue. What better way for a contractor to advertise their work than leaving their “business card” in the very surface that everyone is interested in.

Simple “date” concrete stamps have been around for decades and are usually made from a metal such as brass. These simple tools can be quite expensive and really do not offer much in the way of advertising. If a contractor wanted a more detailed design with the existing tools systems, it would turn out to be very expensive and take time to be sent out and made. As part of their business expansion into precision custom tool making, Walttools saw it was time that contractors had an easier time getting the type of tool needed to imprint their information with a design that reflected their business.

The ability for the contractor to get custom logo stamps offers a simple solution for contractors at a small investment. Customers can choose simple text based designs or full custom logos that can be designed by themselves or by Walttools’ in house design team house. Logo impressions can be used by contractors to serve as a permanent business card for all who see the project. Another, often overlooked, use is actually for the client who would like a special logo or design in their project to give it a more personal touch. “One major advantage is that whether it is a simple logo or complex in-house design, custom items can usually ship to the customer within a day of proof approval, which is a vast improvement over the 1-3 week turn around found in the marketplace,” says Jason Cortez, design engineer at Walttools. The tools are made from a high density polyethylene material that has long life and is not unwieldy like old school metal tools. Each tool will also exhibit a high quality oak handle, making it easy for a decorative concrete contractor to leave their mark on the world.
