Ultima® Templok® ceiling panels address demand
for solutions that reduce energy use and carbon emissions in
buildings
Armstrong World Industries, Inc. (NYSE: AWI), a leader in the
design, innovation and manufacture of ceiling and wall solutions,
announced today that it has launched a new, innovative ceiling
product that can reduce energy usage in commercial buildings. The
new Ultima® Templok® solution features AWI mineral fiber ceiling
panels with integrated phase change material (PCM) that can reduce
building energy costs and consumption while also enhancing thermal
comfort.
“Customer demand for new solutions that help reduce energy use
in the built environment is at an all-time high, and this makes
sense considering that buildings account for approximately 40% of
global energy use,” said AWI CEO and president Vic Grizzle. “Our
Ultima® Templok® ceiling panels add a new performance attribute to
our Mineral Fiber portfolio – energy savings. With PCM technology,
we believe these panels can lower a building’s energy use and
carbon emissions by reducing cooling and heating costs. Our
investment in PCM technology establishes a broad platform for a
multi-generational line of energy saving ceiling products that we
believe will create a catalyst for increased replacement and
renovation activity throughout our markets. Now, our customers can
better justify replacing their ceilings for energy saving ceilings
because of the meaningful financial and environmental benefits they
can provide.”
The development of Ultima® Templok® ceiling panels was
facilitated by the recent acquisition of the Templok business and
certain manufacturing and technology assets from Insolcorp, LLC, a
PCM technology company headquartered in Albemarle, N.C. This
investment provides AWI with intellectual property and unique
equipment to produce PCM. When integrated with AWI ceiling panels,
PCM absorbs and releases heat as temperatures inside a building
rise and fall, thereby regulating room temperature with lower
energy usage. The company’s research estimates that installing
these tiles can reduce energy cost and consumption by up to 15%* as
measured in lab tests.
