Indoors and outdoors: Lindner offers the right ceiling system for every spatial requirement. Just like the expanded metal ceiling LMD-St 213 WL, which has been specifically developed and tested for use as a canopy in entrance areas, as well as for stations, underground car parks, and other (outdoor) areas with high wind pressure and suction loads.

Stands Firm. In Function and Appearance

The expanded metal ceiling LMD-St 213 WL is designed as standard for wind pressure and suction loads up to 133 kg/m² and can be made even more robust for higher requirements.

Wind loads or suction and pressure forces can affect the ceiling system differently and depend on factors such as wind zones, geographical location, building type and height, storey height and location, as well as position on the building. These factors must be considered not only in outdoor areas but also in enclosed buildings with open accesses, such as stations, during planning and execution. In addition to individual static calculations, the corrosion protection for the entire ceiling system, including the fastening technology, must be adapted to the building physics requirements of outdoor ceilings and considered individually.

The ceiling, made from galvanised and thus corrosion-protected steel sheet parts, offers not only a robust ceiling solution for the outdoors but also a homogenous appearance with a pronounced joint in both directions, thanks to the concealed substructure. Individually operable, foldable ceiling elements allow for simple and quick inspection access. The LMD-St 213 WL is available in two different standard versions:

  • Type 3 as a suspended, edged variant with a joint width of 20 mm and surface dimensions ranging from 250 to 3,000 mm in length and 200 to 1,250 mm in width
  • Type 6 as a suspended/foldable variant, also edged and with the same surface and joint dimensions as Type 3

Project-specific versions in other dimensions are possible here as well. Additionally, the outdoor ceiling can be realised in various mesh types and shapes and can be combined with ceiling lights or other installations if needed.

Durable in Function, Design, and Sustainability

In addition to function and design, the outdoor ceiling also impresses with its exceptionally simple assembly and disassembly. All components are fully dismantlable and reusable after use, significantly reducing resource consumption and environmental impact.

With certifications like Cradle to Cradle Certified® Gold, an Environmental Product Declaration EPD according to ISO 14025/EN 15804, as well as testing in Emission Class A+ and the Lindner Green Level Outstanding, the outdoor expanded metal ceiling meets the same high standards as Lindner's metal ceiling systems for indoor use and convinces with durability, material choice, and resource conservation.
