Structural ceilings are ideal for suspending infrastructure and other large heavy items in a data centre. Tate structural ceilings allow you to design the support solution that is less expensive and faster to install than custom on-site systems.

Tate Grid+ LEC

A New Standard In Structural Ceiling Solutions


With a cutting-edge design, it has an impressive load capacity of 2.2 kN. Engineered to maximise load capacity while minimising material use, its unique shape and speed of installation make it the perfect solution for high-performing data centres. Part of our Lower Embodied Carbon (LEC) range, it is setting a new standard in structural ceiling solutions.

    • Increased load capacity with the ability to suspend a uniform load of 3.0kN/m2

    • New security clips connect to the profile wings. making tile installation easier and faster.

    • Min. 61% reduction in embodied carbon (modules A-C) compared to the standard product verified to EN15804+ A2:2019

    • Continuously threaded M10 bottom slot to allow multiple containment configurations

    • Made with aluminium manufactured at facilities using renewable energy

Tate Forte LEC

Designed for Liquid Cooling & AI Infrastructure.


Adaptable by Design, Double the Performance. With a point load capacity of 4.4kN, this Structural Ceiling ensures seamless integration with liquid-cooled IT infrastructure, providing enhanced scalability. Designed to meet high deflection standards, ensuring your systems stay stable and secure, with the ability to suspend a uniform load of 6.1 kN/m².

Tate Forte LEC delivers proven low-carbon performance, achieving up to 59% lower embodied carbon in raw materials and manufacturing (A1–A3)*, while also providing a 54% reduction across the full product lifecycle (A1–C4)* to support long-term sustainability goals for data centre developments. This performance is underpinned by verified, data-backed sustainability, with embodied carbon values independently assessed and reported in a third-party Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) in accordance with EN15804+A2.

*When compared to standard aluminum ceiling systems. Standard represents the same ceiling grid system manufactured using 2024 world average aluminum as raw material; this comparison highlights the carbon reduction achieved by switching to LEC aluminum.
