The just-launched line of ceiling tiles from Ceilume (Graton, CA) that consist of 60% recycled pre- and post consumer bottles are going to market holding a Bloom Award in the Innovative Materials category from the American Society of Interior Designers.
Ceilume Sustainable tiles, besides being 40% post-consumer and 20% pre-consumer recycled plastic material, use 80% less material overall than conventional tiles and are fully returnable at end-of-use to be converted again into new tiles.
The Sustainable collection offers six of Ceilume's most popular decorative styles, ranging in price from $1.56 to $4.43 per square foot. Available in 2' x 2' tiles and 2' x 4' panels, that can be used in both grid-mount and direct-mount installations. The tiles are especially ideal for kitchens, bathrooms and areas of high humidity because they are unaffected by water or moisture, do not harbor any smells, mold or bacteria and are easy to clean.
The tiles are Class A fire Rated, UV inhibited, and GreenGuard Environmental Institute approved in the Indoor Air Quality and Children & Schools categories. In addition, they contribute to LEED MR Credit 2, LEED MR Credit 3 and LEED MR Credit 4.
