In a school environment, disruptive sound can prevent effective learning. In order to bring out the best in students, we must first provide them with a conducive learning environment. With that in mind, Armstrong is introducing two new products with high sound absorption performance for the Education Segment namely Dune Max and Fine Fissured High NRC/CAC. Both of these ceilings are featured in our School Zone brochure.

Armstrong has also held two School Zone seminars in Shanghai and Beijing in 2004. During the seminar, Armstrong is not only introducing the newly launched products designed for education segment but also how to use Armstrong's acoustical mineral fiber ceiling in a school environment.

Armstrong's manifold activities with education segment will be carried out in more cities during the year of 2005.
