increase productivity:

With soffits on nearly every job, SimpleSoffit® is a click-and-go solution. It eliminates the need for a jig table and the pre-production time to create the framing angles for a soffit. Time trials and project success stories show productivity increase of a minimum of 25% and up to 2x faster than traditional installation. With increases in linear foot installation (up to 2.5x) project schedules are also shorter allowing more time for the other trades in the ceiling space.
