What is Acoustical Tile?
Acoustical, or acoustic, tile is used in building construction to maximize the quality of sound produced in the area where the tile is installed. This product may also reduce unwanted sound transmission coming from outside. There are a number of different types of acoustical tile products, including those which can be hung from a suspended grid system on the ceiling, those which can be affixed directly to an existing ceiling, and those which can be fastened to the surface of a wall. All acoustic tile works by making the surface softer, which deadens the echo and reverberation that a hard surface would otherwise produce.
