About Decorative Plastic Ceiling Tiles
You'll have a wide variety of colors and three-dimensional designs to choose from at online stores or at home improvement retailers.
Styles
The variety of ceiling tile patterns is surprisingly large. They range from plain flat and molded edge panels to baroque, gothic, French floral, Spanish rose, palm leaf panels and even include exotic animal skin designs such as alligator, ostrich and elephant. All are in three dimensional form.
Colors
If you prefer the look of antique copper, gold or silver or if you have a specific color in mind, decorative plastic ceiling tiles can be painted with water-based paint. You can paint them yourself or you can custom order them. Two and three color designs both in antique and modern designs are also available, with intricate detailing.
Materials
Decorative plastic ceiling tiles are made from different types of plastic, including polysterene foam (styrofoam). They are fire rated, and generally come in 24" x 24" squares. Two great advantages of using plastic ceiling tiles instead of metal is their corrosion resistance and cost; they're half the price of metal tile.
Applications
Decorative ceiling tiles are not only used for ceilings. Plastic tiles can be used as backsplashes behind sinks in kitchens and bathrooms. They can be painted and mounted as a separate piece of artwork for the wall in your living room. Plastic ceiling tiles are also used to create headboards for beds or surround doors or fireplaces.
