/Types

A modular tile ceiling consists of finished tiles resting on a T-grid — a 600×600 mm module. The type determines the infill material: metal, standard mineral fibre, an acoustic or a hygienic variant.

METAL — cassettes made of powder-coated steel, solid or perforated, for Lay-in and Tegular grids. Durability, washability, a rigid form — they don't warp or yellow like a mineral tile. The perforated variant also improves room acoustics. Made to order, quoted together with the specification.
Where to use it: catering, clinics, swimming pools, retail buildings — wherever the ceiling is often washed or disinfected.

MINERAL FIBRE — a classic white standard tile on a Lay-in T24 grid, the simplest and cheapest variant in our range. We keep it in stock in Ożarów Mazowiecki — shipped the next business day, no waiting for production.
Where to use it: offices, corridors, buildings on a limited budget.

ACOUSTIC — denser mineral fibre with increased sound absorption, available on a Lay-in or Tegular grid (stepped edge, stronger visual effect). Reduces reverberation and improves speech intelligibility in larger rooms. Made to order.
Where to use it: open-plan offices, conference rooms, schools — wherever echo is a problem.

HYGIENIC — a mineral tile with a washable coating, resistant to moisture and frequent washing, on a galvanised T24 grid (extra corrosion protection in humid environments). A cheaper alternative to a metal cassette when hygiene matters but the budget is limited. Made to order.
Where to use it: kitchens, clinics and other rooms with higher hygiene requirements, without the cost of metal.

Types of tile edges

Cross-sections: navy profile, grey tile, red line — the ceiling face.

grid flush with the tile T24
Lay-in
Standard

A straight edge, the tile rests flush on the exposed grid. The cheapest and easiest-to-service variant.

Edge straight
Grid T24

Tegular
Made to order

A stepped edge, the tile face sits lower than the grid — a shadow line at the joint, a more pronounced field division.

A snap-fit edge on a hidden stringer, the grid completely disappears under the tile — a different construction from Lay-in and Tegular.

Certificates

Our metal cassettes have all the required certificates — fire resistance class A2, CE certificate and a data sheet. Available as PDF.

We produce the cassettes and tiles ourselves, from buying the sheet metal and mineral fibre to the finished shipment. See our production in the projects section.

How a modular tile ceiling is installed

A short version for installers — we include a complete step-by-step manual with every delivery.

01
Marking out & wall angle

Use a laser level to mark the line on the walls. Fix the wall angle at max. 450 mm intervals, corners at 45°.

02
Ceiling hangers

Install using metal expansion anchors, at max. 600 mm intervals. No plastic, no bending.

03
Main profiles

Hang on hangers, 1200 mm spacing, min. 300 mm from the wall. Keep them parallel.

04
Cross profiles

Cross tees 1200 mm, then 600 mm — a 600×600 mm module. Check the diagonals of each field.

05
Installations

Fixtures, grilles and sensors are installed before laying the infill — hung separately from the slab, not the grid.

06
Laying tiles & cutting

Mineral tiles or metal cassettes are laid loosely in the cells, from the centre outwards. Pieces near the walls are cut to size — the edges are hidden by the wall profile.

Installation details for each variant — in the PDF manual included with delivery.

Glossary
Modular tile ceiling
Finished tiles resting freely on an exposed T-grid — a 600×600 mm module.
T24 grid
The width of the visible part of the profile — 24 mm.
Perforation
Holes in the metal cassette improve sound absorption in the room.
Class A2 (non-combustible)
Fire reaction class — a non-combustible material, required in most public buildings.
Is a modular tile ceiling the same as an Armstrong ceiling?
Yes. "Armstrong ceiling" is a colloquial name for a modular tile ceiling, not a separate construction type. In the industry, this is what any modular tile ceiling is called where finished tiles rest freely on an exposed T-profile grid. Armstrong is a tile manufacturer's brand that popularised the solution so much that its name entered construction language.

The construction is always the same: a steel T24 grid suspended on hangers, a 600×600 mm module, with tiles resting in the grid cells. What you fill the grid with is a separate decision — a mineral fibre tile and a metal cassette fit the same profile.

The main advantage: every tile can be lifted by hand. Access to ventilation, air conditioning, wiring and fixtures takes seconds. That's why this solution dominates wherever there are a lot of installations above the ceiling.
Where is a modular tile ceiling used?
Standard mineral tiles work well in offices, corridors and buildings on a limited budget. Metal cassettes are chosen wherever moisture, hygiene or frequent washing matter — catering, clinics, swimming pools, industrial kitchens. The perforated variant goes into open-plan offices and rooms where acoustics matter. Clip-in — for representative interiors where the structure should be invisible.
Do you sell original Armstrong tiles?
Customers ask about an "Armstrong ceiling" meaning two different things: specific tiles from that brand, or any 600×600 modular tile ceiling. In 9 out of 10 cases, it's the latter.

We import specific brand tiles on order, but by default we quote equivalent mineral tiles with the same parameters — usually cheaper with identical acoustic and fire class. Let us know if you care about the brand or the parameters. The price difference can be double.
Which perforation should I choose for steel cassettes?
Perforation is how metal improves sound absorption in a room. We offer one proven fine perforation pattern — from a distance it looks like a smooth face, up close you see a regular grid of small holes.
Do metal cassettes fit an existing grid?
Yes, if the grid is in a 600×600 module and in good condition. It's the cheapest way to replace damaged mineral tiles without dismantling the structure. Ask for a sample before ordering the whole thing — it's worth checking the fit on site.
How much does a modular tile ceiling cost per m²?
It mainly depends on the infill: a standard mineral tile is several times cheaper than a powder-coated metal cassette. Add the grid, wall trim and hangers on top. We quote the complete set based on area — without the area, any number would be made up.
Do you install the ceiling?
We are the manufacturer — we supply the material and carry out installation. We also include a layout drawing and instructions with the material, if you prefer to have your own crew install it.
What is the delivery time?
We keep T24 grids and standard mineral tiles in stock in Ożarów Mazowiecki — shipped the next day. Metal cassettes in a custom RAL colour, unusual perforation and tiles imported to order: we specify the lead time with the quote.
How does Clip-in differ from a standard grid?
In a standard grid, cassettes rest freely on visible T-profiles — easy to lift, but the grid is visible. Clip-in snaps onto hidden stringers: the structure disappears, the ceiling looks like a continuous surface. Higher price, harder to dismantle than a standard grid, but a more representative effect.
