The 9Wood EcoGrille is a revolutionary offering for the wood ceiling market. Constructed from FSC-certified Pacific Albus, the EcoGrille sets a new standard for economical, "deep green" sustainable wood ceiling design.
Lightweight and easy to stain, FSC Pacific Albus is a sustainable hybrid specie that comes from natural silvicultural practices.
An excellent, value-rich alternative to many more expensive hardwoods such as White Maple or Poplar, FSC Pacific Albus is certified 100% Pure FSC.
The 9Wood EcoGrille uses a pre-assembled panel fabrication process. This product can be installed throughout the country and is the preferred design in areas requiring seismic compliance. Full panel access is available by means of removing attachment screws hidden in reveals. Repeated removal requires threaded 9Wood T-Bolt™ attachment as opposed to screws.
Show Specification and Performance Info
Acclimatization
9Wood EcoGrilles must be cared for in a controlled interior environment (RH 25%-55% max; temp. 60°-80°) and installed only after reaching equilibrium moisture content. Should the building fall outside these limits consult 9Wood, Inc. for our 3 Tests/3 Tracks Acclimatization Advisory.
Acoustics
9Wood EcoGrilles can enhance acoustics via soundabsorbing material placed over open reveals within the T-Bar grid. Insulation is typically provided locally.
Fire Rating
Individual members and components can be treated with Class I (A) Fire Retardant chemicals (solid wood use FR coatings, veneered particleboard use FR formulas).
LEED
9Wood EcoGrilles may qualify toward MR-3, MR-4.1/4.2, MR-5.1/5.2, MR-6, MR-7, IEQ-4.2 or IEQ-4.4. As all products are custom-fabricated, LEED credit opportunities are project by project. Please contact 9Wood, Inc. for specifics.
MEP
The 9Wood EcoGrille permits MEP penetrations in the ceiling’s surface. Cut panels may require supplemental reinforcement. Fixtures and diff users must be independently supported.
Seismic
9Wood EcoGrilles provide seismic code compliance by means of mechanical direct screw attachment to T-Bar via the cross-piece backer. Please consult local code or a licensed engineer for any additional requirements.
Species & Finishes
The 9Wood EcoGrille is manufactured from FSC-certified Pacific Albus. Clear, satin sheen finish is standard; custom stain matches are available. For additional information see this article.
Suspension
9Wood EcoGrilles are directly attached to 15/16” heavy duty T-Bar main runners. Main runners are typically 2’ on center.
System Weight
9Wood EcoGrilles typically weigh 1.5-3 pounds per square foot, depending on members per linear foot.
