Introducing the Lowest-Embodied-Carbon Mineral-Fiber Acoustical Ceiling Panel

January 14, 2025

Armstrong’s new ULTIMA Low-Embodied-Carbon ceilings are sustainable, high-performance acoustical ceiling panels that help reduce the carbon footprint of the built environment with the lowest embodied carbon available.* Compared to standard Armstrong ULTIMA ceiling panels, ULTIMA Low-Embodied-Carbon panels deliver a 43 percent reduction in embodied carbon by utilizing innovative, new technology that includes sustainably sourced, wood-generated biochar.

* Per EC3 tool data available on Feb. 1, 2024. ULTIMA Low-Embodied-Carbon Ceiling Panels (A1-A3) have a 0.187 Global Warming Potential, including biogenic carbon (kilograms of CO2-equivalent per square foot).
