When it comes to acoustic ceiling tiles, many people assume that they will need to compromise their aesthetics for the greater good. Improved sound and eliminated echoes are worth dealing with a drab, boring ceiling, right? But what if we told you that you didn’t need to compromise on looks to dampen noise?
Acoustic Ceiling Tiles
If you’ve ever been in a stuffy old office building or a strip mall that’s seen better days, you’ve no doubt seen the standard acoustic ceiling tiles that don’t offer much in the looks department. That’s a fair appraisal of ceiling tiles of old, because their function was far more important than how they looked. And while it’s true that absorbing sound is still the primary focus of acoustic ceiling tiles, it doesn’t mean they can’t look good while doing it. With the increased availability of production materials and market competition, acoustic tile makers needed to take their already honed products and make them more visually stimulating. Consumers for residential or commercial acoustic ceiling installation have benefited greatly as a result of this trend toward appearances.
If you’re still on the fence and wondering: do acoustic ceiling tiles absorb sound? Let us give you some peace of mind. Producers of ceiling tiles are held to high standards and use time-tested methods for checking and ensuring quality sound dampening. You can trust that the absorption coefficient of the ceiling tiles we install at Ozburn-Hessey are of the highest quality and meet all industry standards. If acoustic ceiling tiles didn’t work, they wouldn’t be in every commercial building or space that struggles with echoes and noise pollution.
