How Buildwell Connecting Clips Improve Ceiling Framework Durability and Alignment in Indian Projects
🔹 Why Channel Joints Are Critical in Ceiling Systems
When two ceiling channels are joined without proper reinforcement, it leads to:

- Long-term structural shifting
🔹 Buildwell Connecting Clips eliminate these risks by:
- Locking channels in perfect alignment
- Maintaining joint strength over time
- Resisting ceiling vibrations and load fatigue
🔹 Best Practices from Contractors
- Every time a channel is extended
- At corners, drops, and bulkhead zones
- Where ceiling spans exceed 8–10 feet
- In high-traffic or vibration-prone buildings
