My local supplier is these guys: http://www.amazuluinc.com/. Their major clients are Disney World, Seaworld, Universal Studios and Busch Gardens, so you know it's quality stuff. I found them to be a pleasure to work with. Even easier than using matting on the ceiling is to use their ceiling tiles or their decorative boards. I have used their woven bamboo plywood on a ceiling and it cuts easy and adheres simply with liquid nails. And since it's stiff, it won't sag like matting. You can then trim it out with either full or half-round bamboo, which they also have. Their half-round bamboo trim saves loads of time trying to split it yourself and goes up easy with a brad nail gun and some liquid nails. As far as I know, they ship everywhere. They will also send you samples if you ask.
