Compared to normal ceiling tiles… Conventional Tiles Warranted at 10 to 15 years with actual lifespan of 4 to 10 years due to environmental degradation Prices range from $0. 50 to $1. 75 per ft 2 Able to be chipped, scratched, faded ultimately leading to replacement Made from synthetic mineral fibers that are inorganic, glassy (silica based) Spun at high temperatures from rock, clay, slag, and glass Found to be harmful to quality of air over an extended period of time Volcanic Tiles Warranted at 40 years with consistent shape and color Prices range from $0. 98 to $1. 20 per ft 2 Not susceptible to water damage, color change, or chipping and scratching Made from perlite, a blend of inorganic volcanic stone Aids and supports indoor air quality while offering the best defense against harmful mold and bacteria growth without coatings or biocides.
Health Factors Mineral fiber ceiling tiles support the growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria in moist conditions. Cellulose, where present, provides food for mold, mildew, and bacteria mineral fiber ceiling tiles were initially made with phenol formaldehyde binders, and off-gassing the poison created problems Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) became a problem when the fine irritating particles are released into the air due to electromagnetic attraction from computers Eurostone will not burn, emit toxic smoke, or contribute fuel in a fire, and help maintain indoor air quality in any acoustical ceiling application Eurostone tiles are recyclable, and if not recycled, they may be ground up and used as a soil additive
