Ultima Low Embodied Carbon ceiling panels are the lowest embodied carbon mineral fiber acoustical ceiling panels available, offering a 43% reduction in embodied carbon compared to standard Ultima products. The product includes sustainably sourced, wood-generated biochar and the panels are USDA verified 100% biobased content. Armstrong has purchased verified carbon removal offsets for the panels’ remaining global carbon emissions, making all Ultima LEC sales carbon neutral through 2026.
The panels provide sound absorption (with a 0.75 NRC rating) and sound blocking (35 CAC) in one product. The finish is durable, washable, impact-resistant and scratch-resistant, offering disinfectable, mold- and mildew-resistant surfaces and a 30-year warranty. Recycle the panels through the Armstrong Ceilings Recycling Program at the end of their useful life.
