Project Overview
This Medical Centre project in Mirrabooka, WA, involved a 1200m² commercial fit-out for a new healthcare facility. The client needed a ceiling solution that supported the specific needs of a busy medical environment — balancing acoustic performance, ease of maintenance, and a clean, modern aesthetic.
Given the high-traffic nature of the space, the chosen product needed to reduce ambient noise, meet hygiene standards, and contribute to a calming atmosphere for patients and staff. Stonewall Platinum’s Aspect Vivid MEDIGRID 19mm High Density Ceiling Tiles were selected as the ideal solution for this commercial medical fit-out, delivering both function and form.
Design & Material Selection
Key considerations for this project included:
- Acoustic performance: MEDIGRID tiles offer excellent sound absorption due to their 19mm high-density construction, helping reduce echo and background noise in busy healthcare environments.
- Hygiene and maintenance: The tiles are easy to clean, making them ideal for medical settings where hygiene is critical.
- Aesthetics: The crisp, uniform finish of the Aspect Vivid design gave the ceilings a polished and modern look that aligned with the design vision.
- Sustainability: Manufactured using low-VOC materials, MEDIGRID contributes to healthier indoor air quality.
These features made the MEDIGRID tiles a clear choice for this fit-out, offering a balance between performance, maintenance, and presentation.

The main challenge was ensuring a smooth installation process with minimal disruption to the clinic’s operational timeline. The MEDIGRID tiles performed exceptionally well in this regard:
- Pre-cut to standard sizes, reducing the need for onsite trimming.
- Low waste during installation, thanks to their precise fit and finish.
- Packaged securely, reducing damage and simplifying logistics.
