Double Furring Price List

Double furring is a crucial component in lightweight metal ceiling systems, commonly used in residential, commercial, and institutional construction. It serves as a support structure for ceiling boards like gypsum, fiber cement, or PVC panels. Therefore, knowing the current price of double furring metal frames in the Philippines is essential when planning ceiling works.


What is a Double Furring Channel?

To begin with, a double furring channel is a type of galvanized metal framing shaped like a small “C” or “hat” profile. It’s installed horizontally across carrying channels and provides direct support to ceiling boards.

Moreover, double furring channels are part of a suspended ceiling system, which helps conceal electrical wiring, piping, and insulation while providing a smooth and level ceiling surface.


Common Applications of Double Furring

Double furring channels are mainly used for:

  • Suspended ceiling systems (gypsum board, fiber cement board)
  • Drywall or partition ceilings
  • Acoustic ceilings in offices, schools, and hospitals
  • Lightweight ceiling designs in commercial spaces

In addition, they are ideal for projects requiring neat finishes, improved fire resistance, and hidden utilities, which explains their growing popularity in modern construction.


Standard Sizes and Installation

Double furring channels are typically available in:

  • 0.5 mm to 0.6 mm thickness
  • 12 mm to 19 mm flange width
  • 3 meters length (standard)

These channels are usually installed perpendicular to carrying channels using metal clips or tie wires. As a result, they form a grid that evenly distributes the ceiling board’s weight, improving overall structural integrity.


Why Choose Double Furring Over Wood?

While wooden battens were once commonly used, metal double furring systems offer several clear advantages:

  • Termite- and moisture-resistant, perfect for humid climates
  • Lightweight yet strong, allowing for easier handling and transport
  • Consistent dimensions, ensuring straight and even ceiling surfaces
  • Fire-resistant and non-combustible

On the other hand, wooden framing is prone to warping, rotting, and pest damage—making it less reliable in the long term.
