Many INVI Concept® architectural finishing products have been created by listening and problem solving the pain points of contractors, builders and architects. The INVI Pelmet®, for example, was developed after builder feedback revealed that traditional methods for constructing recessed window pelmets were a time consuming and tedious process, often resulting in cracked plaster.
After hearing these concerns, the INVI Concept team developed and tested a two-piece steel pelmet system as a solution to these problems, creating the durable and easy to install INVI Pelmet.
Manufactured by Minarchi UK, INVI Pelmet is a pre-finished, cold-rolled steel section for creating recessed window pelmets in drywall ceilings. The two-part product makes installation quick and easy, as the fixing is not required from the top and it can be installed after the ceiling.
There are two ways to install the INVI Pelmet, to suit different application requirements; the Wall Mount installation method and the Clearview installation method.
- Wall Mount installation method: The INVI Pelmet wall track is fixed to the wall lining, and the pelmet sits above the window.
- Clearview installation method: The INVI Pelmet is fixed to the top of the window section, allowing the window to extend beyond the ceiling and create a full-height window.
To install the INVI Pelmet, the wall track is fixed to the wall lining (Wall Mount installation) or top of the window section (Clearview installation). The pelmet section then inserts into the wall tack, and is fixed through the ceiling plasterboard and track, along the perforated edge of the pelmet.
INVI Pelmet is available in custom sizes and the INVI Pelmet is prepared with an A60 Zincanneal coating, so it can be painted in with the ceiling.
Create clean lines throughout your project with the addition of INVI Pelmet; the versatile option for creating recessed pelmets to hide curtains and blinds, conceal feature lighting, and open up a space with full height windows.
