Stretched ceilings. Beware of plagiarism

When you're the first or the best, others often copy you. Today, stretched films from other manufacturers are referred to as BARRISOL. However, choosing cheaper copies is not worthwhile.


BARRISOL is a stretched ceiling film that gives space a new dimension. It brings beauty, creativity, and a new quality to your interiors. The French manufacturer and Czech retailer collaborate with the best Czech and international architects who use BARRISOL solutions to truly enhance their visions. However, we often encounter various manufacturers and suppliers in the Czech market selling dubious products as original Barrisol (or also barrisol).
You probably know the famous joke that the more stripes, the more it's Adidas... It's amusing, but when you think about its essence, it's not that funny. Just like with fashion brands, in the area of interior design, we encounter massive copying and parasitizing on the good name of certain brands. Today, we will describe the risks associated with the application of copies of stretched ceiling films.

Why you should want the original

BARRISOL is a unique French product that has been on the market for 50 years, in the Czech Republic since 1992. It is a highly moldable polyvinyl film with absolutely unique properties that offers great variability of use. It can be used to create a perfectly flat and smooth ceiling, while it's also possible to create ceilings in shapes that no other material can achieve. The French manufacturer, unlike plagiarists, continues to develop new products and new profiles. For example, the new Barrisol Mirror systems, Barrisol Clim, Artolis fabrics, Arcolis acoustic frames, etc.
In short: BARRISOL is a material that gives space another dimension. It has unique properties and a whole range of color and surface variants. BARRISOL gives ceilings, as well as atypical solutions, a new dimension. Get inspired by realizations from the Czech Republic that show how the quality of interiors can be improved under our conditions.
