Hello, Please follow the included instructions that came with the ceiling tiles and refer to the videos posted by our company. There is also additional installation instructions posted at: www.antiqueceilings.com/html/ceiling_tiles_installation.html as well as: styrodecor.com/foam-ceiling-tiles-installation/ Please also do not hesitate to contact us via email or by calling/txt to: 941-726-0417. Sincerely, Brian Antique Ceilings Inc.
The furring strips will not give enough support area. I’d recommend attaching foam sheet boards (eps or xps foam insulation sheets) and then glueing the foam tiles onto that surface.
Technically, yes as the adhesive will hold. Is it a good idea.... once you glue the foam tiles/planks over the grid system then you will loose an easy access to whatever the drop-in grid system is covering (you will be gluing the foam tiles over the panels as well as the grid due to the sizing).
You can purchase this adhesive from Antique Ceilings Inc. Link: www.antiqueceilings.com/oscommerce/index.php?cPath=28_76 In the video it might be old packaging of this adhesive vs what is currently shown on the selling website. It is European brand adhesive that is specifically made for these foam tiles and planks. It is very fast setting and works great.
Yes, the foam tiles can be glued directly to the 12"x12" acoustical tiles as long as those 12x12" tiles are in good condition and are being held well by their screw or suspension system. The adhesive recommended for the foam tiles will adhere well to the 12"x12" acoustical tiles.
Absolutely, the foam tiles and foam planks from Antique Ceilings (www.AntiqueCeilings.com) can be installed in high humidity and high moisture areas and work great in bathrooms. They can even be installed directly over the shower.
Only water-based paints can be used. Aerosol paints (spray can paints) are not water based as they require solvents and those solvents will destroy the foam tiles. I'd recommend using a regular interior paint (Behr brand, Valspar, PPG, etc...) and a good quality brush or roller for textured surfaces. The painting actually goes pretty well even on the 3-d tiles.
Although it is not available in Canada, Antique Ceilings ships to Canada from their Florida Warehouse. You may visit www.AntiqueCeilings.com to place an online order. Alternatively, you may find most of the foam tiles on Amazon.ca . When you purchase through Amazon.ca you will find pricing in CAD and be guaranteed that you will not be responsible for any additional customs/duty fees. When purchasing via Amazon.ca your grand total that you pay during checkout is final and any duty/import fees are paid by exporter.

These are being sold by Antique Ceilings Inc - www.AntiqueCeilings.com ... You can contact them to see if they would be willing to ship to Nepal and what would the shipping cost be.
These foam tiles are produced and sold all over Europe where the building codes are much stricter than here in USA. This is a decorative product but it is a different type of foam than what most people imagine when thinking of foam or styrofoam (portable coolers that have round beads). The tiles/planks are made from Polystyrene foam which is a different foam cell construction (no small beads). This also gives it different properties than regular styrofoam. If still concerned regarding cleaning, rigidity, or fire rating properties, you may consider using PVC ceiling tiles. Antique Ceilings inc carries a large selection of PVC ceiling tiles that are Commercially Class A Rated material.
Excellent info!
Close up pictures are awesome!
Thank you for sharing honey!
Will this withstand the humidity in the bathrooms?
Yes, absolutely, all of the foam planks and ceiling tiles can be used in the bathrooms as well as outdoors. They are fully moisture resistant.
Yes it does!
thanks, I just bought a few cases from a company and was a little nervous to start this project today

Can you install foam ceiling tiles over hard insulation board on a ceiling?
Will they stick to wood ceiling beams? I removed my drop ceiling and the wood is exposed
The furring strips will not give enough support area. I’d recommend attaching foam sheet boards (eps or xps foam insulation sheets) and then glueing the foam tiles onto that surface.
Do you deliver to New Zealand? Thanks
Can you do this over a drop ceiling?
no

What is the adhesive called? Cannot find it on your website

@@rastlin4540 ok thanks I’m in London England so I’m guess it will be a lot to post
can styrofoam ceiling tiles be installed on top of regular ceiling tiles that are stapled to ceiling
Same question

Can these tiles be painted with spray paint? Or will the paint dissolve ( melt ) the tiles? Thank you
Only water-based paints can be used. Aerosol paints (spray can paints) are not water based as they require solvents and those solvents will destroy the foam tiles. I'd recommend using a regular interior paint (Behr brand, Valspar, PPG, etc...) and a good quality brush or roller for textured surfaces. The painting actually goes pretty well even on the 3-d tiles.
Can these be used on walls as well?
Why couldn't they be?

He sounds like Arnold Schwarzenegger lol :)
Imagine a fire in that house... toxic smoke and hot drips falling from the ceiling...
Imagine your popcorn ceilings with asbestos burning not much better.
