Classics lovers choose a matte texture that creates a very smooth, smooth and more traditional coating. In a small room in the bathroom, the most appropriate choice is a glossy or mirror cloth that perfectly reflects the light, thereby expanding the space and raising the ceiling. Satin fabric stretch ceiling creates a light silky coating, which looks particularly impressive in a gentle pastel color. In addition to the main three options, there are paintings that mimic the skin or completely absorb light due to the velvety texture.
As for the producers, in the first placeamong them is traditionally France - the inventor of this finishing material and the leader in its production. German materials are very good quality. Domestic suspended ceilings are made, as a rule, from imported materials on European equipment. Due to the fact that the production is carried out at Russian enterprises, the cost of domestic ceilings is lower than that of European ones, but their quality is quite in line with world standards.
The cost of stretch ceiling varies independing on its type and manufacturer. Mirror and glossy are more expensive than matte, expensive are also colored canvases, with patterns printed on them and photoprints. However, money costs (on average from 600 to 1500 rubles per square meter) will be repaid by the durability of the coating, which, unlike the painted or bleached surface, retains its beauty and pristine appearance for many years.
