Multi-purpose, multi-environment, multi-colour. Judge: so much more than just a ceiling…
Think suspended ceilings are just something you’d hang in an office to lower the ceiling level? Think again. Judge sells and installs suspended ceilings across the UK for a multitude of purposes in a huge variety of locations.
We’ve installed our suspended ceilings in hospitals, kitchens, schools, offices, power plants, quarries, recording studios (we could go on). But in all our installations there’s one common factor: our suspended ceilings are doing far more than just acting as a ceiling.

Fire Reaction/Resistant
(Class 0 / Class 1 (BS 476)
Fire resistant suspended ceilings from Judge can give you time in an emergency.
Offering up to 1 hour fire resistance our ceilings can give you time to make your escape, time for the emergency services to arrive, time for adjoining rooms/buildings to be saved. Our ceilings could offer the time you need for lives to be saved.
Judge suspended ceilings offer protection from both above and below the suspended ceiling. That’s vital since fire can spread through the void above a suspended ceiling.
Judge’s fire resistant ceiling tiles could even help you save money on your insurance premiums.

Acoustics and sound-proofing
Noise pollution is an ever present frustration in all work spaces. Yet the pressure on employers to minimise noise levels and protect staff has never been greater. Additionally, noise pollution is being met with greater fines than ever before. Protect your business, protect your staff and protect your bottom line. Fit suspended ceilings by Judge.
Suspended ceilings were originally developed with acoustic balance and control in mind, and over the years their performance in this respect has improved time and again. Judge suspended ceilings now offer greater acoustic performance within the room, and greater sound proofing without.
Sound attenuation ceilings obstruct soundwaves up to 44db. That means your suspended ceiling from Judge can dramatically reduce the noise escaping to adjoining rooms. And since this sound-proofing is achieved by bouncing the soundwaves off the ceiling surface, the acoustics within the room are improved at the same time.
Judge suspended ceilings are the ideal ceiling for offices, industrial units, recording studios and nightclubs – anywhere, in fact, where the quality of the sound on the inside is as important as restricting the sound escaping to the outside.
Humidity Resistance
A suspended ceiling in a kitchen, bathroom, shower area or swimming pool needs to be able to resist moisture. Without humidity resistance the ceiling will, over time, start to sag with additional weight added from the moisture absorption.
Once again Judge has the solution. Our humidity resistant tiles offer excellent, long-term performance in even the most demanding of conditions. These tiles are up to 100% R/H (moisture resistant) and, fitted into a corrosion resistant suspended ceiling grid, will offer years of service.
Hygeine
For laboratories, kitchens, surgeries and all clean-room environments trust Judge to offer suspended ceilings that protect.
When cleanliness and hygiene matter you need a ceiling with an anti-microbial coating that inhibits the growth and spread of harmful bacteria, and is easily cleanable.
Wash-ability / Occasional Cleaning
Use a moist cloth or sponge damped in water containing mild soap or diluted detergent to clean your suspended ceiling from Judge.
Impact Resistance
Our manufacturers have spent extra time working on the durability and impact resistance of our suspended ceilings.
