With a traditional ceiling, water soaks through the tiles and lands on whatever sits below. A Velaria SystemsTM stretch membrane ceiling works differently. It captures the water and holds it in place, which gives you time to respond. - Capture water from burst pipes and leaky plumbing before it causes damage. - Avoid the stains and sagging tiles that follow a leak. - Protect valuable IT equipment, furnishings, and your people. - Clean the surface with a quick wipe-down. ### We put it to the test with 30 gallons (250 lb) of water. Watch what happened: [![VS-cover-video-email](https://blog.velariasystems.com/hs-fs/hubfs/VS-cover-video-email.jpg?width=900&height=568&name=VS-cover-video-email.jpg)](https://youtu.be/VoXG02qgXUA?si=qzupFIAaJ95pMVEV) [Watch video](https://youtu.be/VoXG02qgXUA?si=qzupFIAaJ95pMVEV) At Velaria SystemsTM we are passionate about design solutions that meet human needs for visual interest, less noise, and superior quality lighting.
