  • Egg Crate Air Grille

    The egg crate air grille features a uniform square-core grid design, making it an optimal solution for both supply and return air applications in HVAC systems. With high airflow capacity, low pressure drop, low noise, and clean aesthetics, this grille type is widely used in large-scale construction projects.


    Construction and Materials of Egg Crate Air Grille

    An egg crate air grille typically consists of three main components:

    Frame:
    Made of extruded aluminum with thickness from 0.8 – 1.2 mm, providing structural rigidity for ceiling installation.

    Core Grid (Egg Crate):
    The central section designed with uniform square cells (commonly 15×15 mm or 20×20 mm) to ensure effective airflow distribution.

    Surface Coating:
    Finished with electrostatic powder coating in white or custom colors to match interior design requirements.

    Material:
    Commonly made from solid aluminum, offering lightweight construction, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability in humid environments such as shopping malls, factories, and commercial buildings.


    Practical Applications of Egg Crate Air Grille

    Supply Air Applications

    Egg crate grilles are preferred in high-airflow supply systems. The square-core design distributes air evenly, preventing strong drafts concentrated in one area and maintaining thermal balance.

    Example:
    In shopping malls, ceiling cassette AC units combined with egg crate grilles distribute cool air uniformly without causing discomfort to occupants.


    Return Air Applications

    Besides supply air, egg crate grilles are also widely used for return air, especially in systems requiring efficient removal of warm or humid air. When combined with volume control dampers, they optimize air circulation within the building.

    Application Example:
    Electronics manufacturing plants use egg crate grilles for return air to AHU systems to maintain stable pressure environments.


    Common Installation Locations

    • Suspended ceilings (gypsum ceiling) connected to flexible ducts or rectangular ducts

    • High wall positions in warehouses or technical rooms for heat extraction

    • Combined with VCD dampers or plenum boxes to improve airflow control and reduce noise

    Installation position depends on the function: supply air, return air, or both.


    Technical Standards of Egg Crate Air Grille

    HVAC Installation Guidelines

    • Minimum spacing between grilles: ≥ 2 m to avoid airflow interference

    • Use with VCD damper or plenum box for airflow control and noise reduction

    • Recommended installation height: 2.5 – 3.2 m, depending on ceiling height

    Following these standards ensures optimal system performance, energy efficiency, and long equipment lifespan.


    Coating and Material Quality Standards

    High-quality egg crate grilles are powder-coated on aluminum or galvanized steel, providing:

    • Corrosion and rust resistance

    • Durability in humid or coastal environments

    • Long-lasting color stability (no yellowing over time)

    Some manufacturers offer antibacterial coating suitable for hospitals, clean rooms, and laboratories.


    How to Select the Right Egg Crate Air Grille

    Based on Airflow and Application

    • Conference rooms (supply air): Medium size, stable airflow, low noise

    • Large factory return air: Larger grille with high free area

    • Clean rooms / laboratories: Antibacterial coating, easy to clean

    Airflow selection should be based on AHU or fan capacity to ensure proper sizing.


    Based on Ceiling and Duct Size

    • Small gypsum ceiling → 300×300 or 400×400 mm

    • Large square duct → 600×600 or 800×800 mm

    • Wall / technical shaft → Rectangular grille such as 1000×500 mm

    Incorrect sizing may reduce airflow performance and affect aesthetics.
