NCS ceiling tiles are a trusted solution for commercial fitouts where acoustic performance, compliance, durability and design flexibility are essential. We supply and install the full range of NCS ceiling tiles and architectural ceiling systems across Brisbane and Queensland, working with builders, shop owners, property managers and commercial clients.
NCS ceiling systems are commonly specified for offices, education facilities, healthcare, retail and commercial interiors, offering reliable sound control, fire performance and long-term stability. As licensed ceiling installers, we don’t simply supply ceiling tiles — we install them correctly as part of compliant suspended ceiling and fitout projects, including grid systems, service coordination and seismic restraint where required.

NCS Apex™ Acoustic Ceiling Tiles
NCS Apex™ is a high-performance mineral fibre acoustic ceiling tile designed for general commercial use. It is widely specified for offices, classrooms, retail environments and healthcare facilities where noise control and reliability are required.

Key features of NCS Apex™ ceiling tiles include:
- Acoustic absorption with NRC 0.60
- Ceiling attenuation CAC 35 for improved room-to-room sound control
- Group 1 fire rating for NCC compliance
- RH99 humidity resistance to prevent sagging and mould growth
- Bright white finish with high light reflectance
- Compatible with standard exposed T-bar grid systems
- Available in common module sizes including 1200 × 600 mm and 600 × 600 mm
Apex tiles provide a clean, professional ceiling finish while improving acoustic comfort in busy commercial environments.
Apex™ Black Acoustic Ceiling Tiles
Apex™ Black offers the same core acoustic performance as standard Apex tiles, combined with a black fissured finish for architectural and feature ceilings.
These tiles are commonly used in:
- Commercial offices with exposed or dark ceilings
- Retail and hospitality fitouts
- Media rooms, training rooms and presentation spaces
Key points:
- Acoustic absorption (NRC 0.60)
- Compatible with exposed suspended grid systems
- Designed for modern, low-glare ceiling aesthetics
- Suitable for commercial interiors where a darker ceiling finish is required
Pinnacle™ and Pinnacle™ Health Ceiling Tiles
NCS Pinnacle™ ceiling tiles feature a finer, more uniform surface texture, making them suitable for commercial interiors requiring a cleaner ceiling appearance.
Pinnacle™ tiles are commonly used in:
- Offices and meeting rooms
- Education facilities
- Commercial interiors requiring a refined ceiling finish
Pinnacle™ Health tiles are designed for hygienic environments and are suitable for healthcare and medical applications where cleanability and indoor air quality are important considerations.
Ridge™ Ceiling Tiles
NCS Ridge™ ceiling tiles provide a textured surface profile that adds visual depth while maintaining dependable acoustic performance.
They are commonly specified for:
- Retail fitouts
- Commercial refurbishments
- Feature areas within office spaces
Ridge tiles integrate seamlessly with standard suspended ceiling grid systems and are suitable for both new ceilings and replacements.
Imperial Size Availability (Ridge™ Range)
NCS Ridge™ ceiling tiles are also available in imperial sizing, making them a suitable option for refurbishments and upgrades in buildings with existing imperial grid systems.
Imperial-sized ceiling tiles are commonly found in older commercial buildings, imported fitouts, or projects where replacing the suspended grid is not practical. Using imperial-sized Ridge™ tiles allows damaged or outdated ceiling tiles to be replaced without modifying the existing grid, saving time and cost during refurbishments.
If you’re unsure whether your ceiling uses metric or imperial sizing, we can assess the existing grid and recommend the most suitable replacement solution.
NCS Speq™ Ceiling Tiles
NCS Speq™ ceiling tiles brisbane are a cost-effective solution for large-scale commercial refurbishments and tenancy upgrades.
These tiles are typically specified where:
- Budget control is important
- Reliable acoustic and fire performance is required
- Standard suspended ceiling systems are being installed or replaced
Speq™ tiles provide consistent performance for commercial ceiling applications.
Metal Pan, Mesh, Square Mesh & Open Cell Ceiling Systems
In addition to mineral fibre acoustic tiles, NCS offers a range of architectural ceiling systems designed for exposed, feature and design-led commercial interiors.
NCS Metal Pan Ceiling Systems
NCS Metal Pan ceilings provide a clean, modern ceiling finish using formed metal panels installed into suspended grid systems.
Metal pan ceilings are commonly used in:
- Retail and hospitality fitouts
- Commercial offices with architectural ceilings
- Transport and public buildings
Key characteristics include:
- Durable metal construction
- Smooth, uniform ceiling appearance
- Suitable for exposed or feature ceiling designs
- Compatible with suspended ceiling grid systems
- Easy access to services above the ceiling
NCS Expanded Metal Mesh Ceiling Systems
NCS Metal Mesh ceilings use expanded aluminium mesh panels to create a modern, industrial ceiling aesthetic while maintaining access to services above the ceiling.
These systems are commonly specified for:
- Retail and shop fitouts
- Hospitality venues and bars
- Offices with exposed ceilings
- Architectural feature spaces
Metal mesh ceiling benefits include:
- Lightweight aluminium construction
- Rust-resistant and corrosion-resistant material
- Powder-coated finishes available
- Installed into standard exposed grid systems
- Allows airflow and visibility to ceiling services
Where acoustic control is required, metal mesh ceilings can be combined with acoustic insulation above the ceiling plane.
NCS Square Mesh Ceiling Systems
Square mesh ceiling systems provide a more structured, geometric appearance compared to expanded mesh designs.
They are commonly used in:
- Architectural commercial interiors
- Feature ceilings in retail and office environments
- Public and transport buildings
Square mesh ceilings offer:
- Strong visual ceiling patterns
- Compatibility with suspended ceiling grid systems
- Easy integration with lighting and HVAC services
- Durable metal construction for high-traffic environments
NCS Open Cell Ceiling Systems
NCS Open Cell ceilings consist of aluminium cell panels that create a three-dimensional ceiling grid appearance.
Open cell ceilings are commonly specified for:
- Retail and commercial fitouts
- Offices with exposed architectural ceilings
- Public buildings and foyers
Open cell ceiling advantages include:
- Strong architectural visual impact
- Open design allowing airflow and service integration
- Aluminium construction for durability and corrosion resistance
- Compatibility with suspended ceiling systems
- Suitable for modern and industrial interior designs
Combining Architectural Ceilings with Acoustic Performance
Metal pan, mesh, square mesh and open cell ceilings are often used alongside acoustic ceiling systems to balance visual design with sound control.
Where required, acoustic performance can be achieved by:
- Installing acoustic backing or insulation above the ceiling
- Combining architectural ceilings with mineral fibre acoustic tiles in adjacent areas
- Coordinating ceiling layouts as part of a complete commercial fitout
