Copper Ceiling Tiles

Copper is one of the most traditional materials for home decor. It has been around for hundreds of years and has filled many homes with a warm luster, becoming even more attractive with age. Copper has a similar effect as gold, and yet it’s affordable at a much lower price.

Not only is it a stunning metal to add to your home, but it’s also extremely durable so you can create a look that lasts a long time. No matter where you’re thinking of adding copper, whether it’s in a commercial setting or your home, with the right plan, you could end up with an exquisite look that includes your ceiling.

What’s great about a copper finish is that it adds warmth to any room, which is why it is such a popular choice for a  commercial building, particularly pubs, bars, and upper-class restaurants.

Forms of Copper Ceiling Tiles:

  • Styrofoam Copper Ceiling Tiles: These tiles have all the detail and beauty of copper tiles at an exceptionally affordable price. They are lightweight and very easy to work with.
  • Faux-Tin Copper Ceiling Tiles: Faux-tin copper is a great alternative to solid copper. It’s more budget-friendly, and it’s just as durable. Although they look just like copper ceiling tiles, they’re made of PVC plastic that has a Class A fire rating.
  • Solid Copper Ceiling Tiles: While investing in faux-tin copper and Styrofoam ceiling tiles provide a wonderful outcome, they still don’t beat the real thing.
  • Polished Copper Ceiling Tiles: If solid copper ceiling tiles don’t fit your budget, there is another excellent alternative: aluminum tiles. They are also durable and attractive, and they look more like the real thing than the other alternatives listed here.

 


 

Faux-Tin Ceiling Tiles

We’ve talked about faux-tin tiles specifically as an alternative to copper, but it’s important to know that faux-tin is a great option that can be used to replicate any metal.

Why Faux-Tin Ceiling instead of Real Metal?

  • Affordability. Real metal is much more costly than plastic, and that’s why you can install a faux-tin ceiling at a much better price than a metal one. Plus, you don’t have to sacrifice quality.
  • Avoid echoes. Plastic is softer than metal, and sound will not bounce off of it in the same way it does metal.
  • Lightweight. Faux tin ceiling tile is perhaps the lightest material you can go with, which makes it one of the easiest materials to work with.
  • Easy installation. These tiles are lightweight, available in direct glue-up or drop-in application, and can be cut to size easily, making installation simple.

 


 

Styrofoam Ceiling Tiles

They are a fantastic investment as they add so much to your home.
