Below you can find all the metal you need to create partitions and suspended ceilings effectively. At Insulation Board, you can order your plasterboards, adhesive and metals all in one place.

MF Ceiling Systems

An MF Ceiling system is also known as a Metal Furring Ceiling. This is a suspended ceiling framework constructed from lightweight metal. MF ceiling metal is typically galvanised steel. An MF Ceiling system can help provide a flat and smooth surface for plasterboards. They are also easy to integrate lighting, as well as insulation and access panels.
MF Ceilings are ideal for modern interiors, offering flexibility in design. Additionally, they can be combined with acoustic insulation to enhance sound performance within a building. MF Ceiling Systems are popular as they can help provide a clean and professional finish.

MF Ceiling Components

MF Ceiling systems are typically made from a variety of different components. MF6A perimeter channels serve as a boundary and edge support for a ceiling layout. MF7 main channels help to carry the main load. MF5 ceiling sections are commonly used to form the grid and also fix plasterboard to it. Finally, MF Ceiling systems also include suspension angles and hangers. The purpose of these is to adjust the height of the suspended ceiling whilst maintaining a level finish.

Together, these components all work in perfect unison to create an MF ceiling system, designed to be reliable and easy to build.

Metal Stud and Track Systems

On our website, you will find a wide variety of metal stud and track systems. These are ideal for constructing strong yet lightweight internal walls and partitions. They are typically made from galvanised steel and designed for precision and installation speed on site.

C Studs– These are available in a range of sizes, such as 50mm, 70mm, 90mm, 146mm, to suit all different partition requirements.
U Track– These are used to secure the top and bottom of C studs to the floor and ceiling. They are used in combination to create a stable framework.

The use of metal frame systems offers a quick and efficient alternative to timber stud walls. A metal framing system can provide excellent thermal or acoustic performance when paired with insulation and plasterboard.

This system offers a clean and efficient alternative to timber stud walls, providing straight lines, consistent strength, and excellent fire and acoustic performance when paired with plasterboard and insulation.

Why choose metal frame systems?

Unlike timber, metal does not warp or twist in the same way. This means that the result is highly accurate and straight. Another benefit is that it is lightweight and also easy to cut or fix on-site. Many people report significant savings in installation time compared to timber frame systems. Additionally, galvanised steel can resist corrosion and meets UK building requirements.
A metal frame system also allows you to create partitions easily. They are also compatible with insulation and plasterboard. The use of acoustic insulation in a metal frame system can also improve acoustic performance in a building. This can also help it to meet UK building requirements.

Metal frame systems have a wide range of applications. These include homes and apartments, as well as commercial buildings such as offices, hotels, retail units, schools, and hospitals.
