Data Center Ceiling Grids

Gordon Grid Max™

Gordon Grid Max™ is a high-capacity aluminium structural ceiling system developed for 4, 6 and 8 ft spans. It supports overhead services and equipment loads in data centers with steel or precast structures.

For hyperscale data centers

Increasing rack connections and power loads in hyperscale and cloud data centers demand greater capacity from overhead support infrastructure. Reduced use of raised floors also calls for a more open ceiling service void. Gordon Grid Max™ was developed to meet these needs.
