Ceiling Tiles
UK: Ceiling Tiles: Ceiling Tile Manufacturers & Suppliers
ABOUT CEILING TILES
Ceiling tiles normally form part of a
suspended ceiling system, constructed of aluminium sections and hangers. Their
main purpose is to conceal pipework and wiring above the suspended ceiling. They
can also provide sound absorbency and heat insulation. Ceiling tiles may be made
of mineral or metal. In the case of metal ceiling tiles, perforations are
provided to produce sound absorption. Ceiling tiles may be removed for access
either by unclipping, or by downward hinges. Where ceiling height is limited,
ceiling tiles may be fixed directly to the underside of the ceiling.
Leading UK suppliers of ceiling tiles are profiled below the panel of sponsored

Architectural Products is one of Europe's leading suppliers of advanced metal

manufacture. The robust grid system is easily installed and tiles can be removed
and replaced for access to services. Modular or circular light fitting and
grilles can be integrated within the Clip-In System, and various acoustical
criteria can be met with the inclusion of acoustic inlays.
