Drop Ceiling Tiles & Panels
Drop ceiling tiles are a brilliant way to improve the acoustics of a space, especially when you can capitalize on a pre existing ceiling grid. Since the early 1960’s, drop ceiling tiles have become the golden standard for commercial ceilings, providing a uniform look, easy access to above utilities, and can even provides some acoustic dampening.
Being the most economical ceiling treatment also made it the most popular choice in commercial construction to this day. The best side effect of this development is that the infrastructure – the ceiling grid itself – is commonplace in a majority of office buildings. Interior designers and the world of acoustics have begun to leverage this infrastructure, creating more evolved and powerful acoustic products that simply attach to an existing ceiling grid without the need for tools or construction.
The Ceiling Grid
The ceiling grid replaced the need to implement a drywall ceiling in many projects, reducing the overall construction needs of any given space, while at the same time building a whole new product industry. The idea was simple, a modular square grid of metal strips, suspended by chains or cables from the structural ceiling high above. This allowed spaces to be designed with fewer ceiling supports, larger open spaces, and did a good job of hiding unsightly wiring and unfinished ceiling joists from view in commercial spaces.
The Death of Mineral Fiber Tiles
The world of acoustics has changed a lot since the 60’s. The drop ceiling tiles of old were made of a substance called mineral fiber – a fire-safe, crumbly, and profoundly ugly material that provides insulation and covers large areas.
Other types of ceiling panels were developed to use the ceiling grid over time. Some these include inexpensive plastic tiles that gave more design freedom to the user, but came at the cost of extremely poor acoustic properties, as the hard plastic tends to reflect sound.
A Better Drop Ceiling Tile
The new world of ceiling acoustics has evolved. Acoustic felt is replacing mineral fiber as an acoustic insulator, providing more powerful noise control, and infinitely more design freedom to change the character of your space, and build it towards the soul of your brand.
Acoustic drop ceiling tiles can be made in hundreds of colors, combining the best of natural, organic wool and recycled PET acoustic felt to maximize color, acoustic performance, and leave room for customizability.
