Certificaciones
- EN 13964
- EN 13501-1: A2-s1,d0
- ISO 9001 quality management
- CE (EU Construction Products Regulation)
The bulkhead ceiling system connects different ceiling levels with custom-built metal profiles, resolving blind pockets, HVAC and LED cove lighting in a single architectural element. Compliant with EN 13964, rated A2-s1,d0, available in any RAL color with 2 - 4 week production.
The bulkhead ceiling system comprises custom-built metal transition elements that connect ceilings of different heights, turn corners and create low-level bands within the space. In a single architectural element it resolves the volume between the curtain-wall glass band and the internal ceiling, houses roller-blind pockets, HVAC ducts and LED cove lighting. Straight, stepped, curved and corner-return profiles are freely engineered to the project.
Profiles are manufactured from EN 10346 DX51D+Z galvanized steel or AA3005 aluminum sheet, 0.6 - 1.0 mm thick. Widths of 150 - 1200 mm, lengths up to 6000 mm (unlimited runs with splice details) and any level difference can be produced; internal reinforcement profiles eliminate deflection on wide spans. An internal skeleton of steel or aluminum allows the boxes to carry service loads.
The system is installed on a suspension infrastructure compliant with the EN 13964 suspended ceiling standard; metal components meet EN 13501-1 fire class A2-s1,d0. Seamless transition details are developed toward clip-in, linear and T-grid systems, and NRC up to 0.70 sound absorption is achievable with perforated faces and acoustic fleece.
Surfaces are finished with polyester powder coating in any RAL tone, anodizing and wood-grain application; exterior soffits recommend PVDF (>=70%) coating (corrosion class C4/C5-M per EN ISO 12944). LED strip channels, diffuser cut-outs, sprinkler and sensor penetrations are precision-machined at the factory.
Typical applications include curtain-wall transitions, mall and office corridors, hotel lobbies, hospital outpatient axes, airport boarding gates, storefront bands and balcony soffits. Bulkheads clarify the ceiling hierarchy of the space while keeping the technical volume visually disciplined.
Metaltavan produces samples and series production to site dimensions with 30 years of experience and regular exports to 7 markets. Typical production lead time is 2 - 4 weeks; numbered packaging per segment accelerates installation.

Instalación y aplicación
- 1 Site dimensions are taken and the bulkhead line with levels is marked on the architectural plan.
- 2 4 mm galvanized wires and adjustable hangers are fixed to the structural slab.
- 3 Reinforced body segments are mounted to the hangers in numbered order.
- 4 Segment joints are aligned, corner and return details are closed, and level is verified.
- 5 LED, diffuser and sprinkler connections are completed into the factory pockets.
- 6 After final inspection and cleaning, surface protection films are removed at handover.
Preguntas frecuentes
Chapa de acero galvanizado EN 10346 DX51D+Z o de aluminio AA3005, de 0,6 a 1,0 mm de espesor, con perfiles de refuerzo interior añadidos según la luz.
Se producen anchos de 150 a 1200 mm, longitudes simples de hasta 6000 mm y cualquier desnivel; los detalles de unión permiten longitudes ilimitadas.
Los componentes de acero galvanizado y aluminio cumplen EN 13501-1 clase A2-s1,d0; la instalación utiliza una infraestructura de suspensión conforme a EN 13964.
Sí. Los canales para tiras LED, los recortes para difusores y los pasos de sensores se mecanizan con precisión en fábrica y no requieren trabajo adicional en obra.
Las superficies lacadas se limpian con un paño húmedo; el recubrimiento de poliéster de alta calidad mantiene la estabilidad del color durante años. Las aplicaciones exteriores en PVDF no necesitan protección adicional.
Fabricamos en cualquier tono RAL. El tiempo típico de producción es de 2–4 semanas; el calendario exacto se planifica una vez confirmadas las medidas en obra y las cantidades.
