Ceiling
Tile ProductsStep One: Select your ceiling type
TILES
- Attractive 12" x 12" tiles attach directly to your existing
ceiling surface, minimizing loss of ceiling height without the
need for a grid system.
PLANKS - Versatile Armstrong ceiling planks also fasten directly to your current ceiling, without the need for any type of grid system. The planks are available in sizes 6" x 48", 6 " x 80" and 5" x 78".
PANELS - 2' x 2' and 2' x 4' panels lay in a suspended grid system below your existing ceiling surface. Suspended panels are an ideal way to lower or level your existing ceiling or make it easy to gain access to fixtures above the ceiling. Suspended panels are also the way to go if you are installing recessed lighting. But remember youll need a little more room -- an additional 6" drop below your current ceiling.
Step Two: Choose your ceiling style
Armstrong offers many decorative options in tile, panel and plank ceilings, so it's up to you to decide which of our attractive ceiling styles is right for you.
Armstrong HomeStyle Ceilings are carefully designed to meet the decorative and performance needs of the residential shopper, while our Contractor Ceilings are institutional-style ceilings intended for light commercial use.
While all Armstrong ceilings have some strong characteristics in common including washablity, standard acoustics, and fire-retardance, many also have extra features that may be particularly important in your home.

What are Armstrong ceilings made of?Armstrong mineral board ceilings are made of inert mineral components, binders and inert filler materials. They consist of up to 55% recycled content: newsprint and mineral wool. Armstrong also offers high performance engineered resin and durable laminate plank ceilings.
Can I put insulation on the back of an Armstong ceiling?
Only Armstrong suspended ceiling panels (2' x 4') that are at least 5/8" thick can be back-loaded with additional insulation. Rolled insulation must be used and installed perpendicular to the cross tees so that the weight of the insulation rests on the suspended grid system, and there is air space between the insulation and the panel. Ask your dealer for specific details.
Can Armstrong ceilings be painted?
All Armstrong wood and mineral fiber ceilings can be painted with latex paints once surface dirt has been removed. Fiberglass panels should not be painted. Note: Armstrong cannot guarantee fire performance rating of a repainted ceiling.
Will painting acoustical ceilings affect acoustic efficiency?
Armstrong acoustical ceilings can be painted with a slight loss of acoustical efficiency using nonbridging paint that does not cover the holes.
Can ceiling tile be used in the bathroom?
Yes, if the bathroom is vented to the outside with a fan. Armstrong ceilings with HumiGuard Plus are extra sag resistant for use in areas of high humidity. BioBlock paint treatment inhibits the spread of mold and mildew.
Can the ceiling be installed over embedded radiant-heat coil ceilings?
No. An appreciable loss of heating efficiency will result and the ceiling will not remain stable.
Can a new ceiling be cemented directly over old ceiling tiles?
It is best to remove old tiles first. In many cases, the old ceiling may have deteriorated and an adequate hold cannot be obtained.
