Zentia launches Obsidian: A black ceiling tile designed to enhance commercial interiors.

Zentia has launched its new Obsidian range - a black ceiling tile that imbues interiors with darker tones while maintaining outstanding acoustic performance.

Lightweight and easy to install, Obsidian black ceiling tiles boast Class A sound absorption offering both style and acoustic performance in open spaces.

Traditionally used for applications such as cinemas, Zentia has noticed the demand for black ceiling tiles has grown with designers exploring options outside of a classic white ceiling.

When paired with materials such as exposed brick, natural wood finishes and metals, black ceiling tiles can help achieve an industrial feel whilst maintaining a comfortable acoustic environment.

John Spicer, head of new product development, commented on the launch, “The ceiling is often referred to as the ‘fifth wall’ by designers and we recognise the need for an acoustic solution that extends beyond a traditional white ceiling.

"Achieving the ‘industrial look’ is a key trend, a black ceiling perfectly complements natural materials.

"Obsidian is just one example of our continued commitment to providing innovative ceiling solutions that allow for functionality, acoustic performance and creativity.”
