As one of the greatest successes in the building materials industry, Armstrong Ceiling Solutions is a true pioneer of ceiling and suspension systems with more than 150 years’ expertise in delivering acoustic ceiling solutions for building interiors. The company was originally founded in 1860 by Thomas Morton Armstrong as a small 2-man cork cutting shop in Pittsburgh, USA. In 1966, Armstrong went on to open the U.K.’s first mineral ceilings plant in Team Valley, Gateshead followed shortly by a grid plant also in Newcastle. Today, our deep rooted manufacturing origins and solid Armstrong brand foundation means we have evolved into the world’s leading and most innovative manufacture of acoustic ceiling solutions whose mission is to offer the best products, value and service to our customers. Our market leading suspended ceiling systems are specified in every environment from hotels and hospitals to schools and workplaces - offering interior solutions that help to enhance comfort, save time, improve building efficiency and overall performance. With options that focus on optimum acoustics to those that reduce a building’s reliance on artificial light, our ceiling systems deliver an improved environment for users’ well-being long before it became a contemporary buzz word. A peerless 30-year system warranty also gives our customers complete peace of mind. Our environmental commitment ensures we are striving for a sustainable future.
