Radar™ Ceramic

Ideal for an array of tough environments, these panels are formulated to withstand high heat, high humidity and corrosive chemical fumes.

USG Radar™ Ceramic Acoustical Ceiling Panels with Firecode® consist of 100-percent ceramic-bonded mineral fiber that withstands high heat, high humidity, and corrosive chemical fumes. Mold, mildew and sag resistant, they are perfect for indoor pools, shower areas, saunas and steam rooms.

Features & Benefits: 

Radar™ Ceramic Acoustical Ceiling Panels feature inherent performance which means that due to the ceramic-bonded mineral fiber substrate these panels inherently resist the growth of mold and mildew. Their Firecode® formulation contains special additives that increase fire resistance and may qualify for use in fire rated assemblies to help meet life safety codes.
