FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of the CDS Sand Textured Suspended Ceiling Tile?

The tiles measure 1200mm x 600mm.

What type of grid system is required for these tiles?

These tiles are designed to fit a standard 24mm suspended ceiling grid system.

How do these tiles compare to Zentia Aruba or Armstrong Dune tiles?

The CDS Sand Textured tile offers a similar sand texture finish and acoustic properties, providing a comparable aesthetic and functional alternative.

Are these tiles good for soundproofing a room completely?

These tiles offer acoustic sound-reducing properties that help manage ambient noise and reverberation, but they are not designed for complete soundproofing.

How heavy is each tile?

Each tile weighs approximately 6.28 pounds (around 2.85 kg).

Can these tiles be cut to fit around obstacles?

Yes, ceiling tiles can typically be cut using a utility knife. Always measure carefully and cut from the back surface to maintain the appearance of the front texture. Ensure cut edges are supported by the grid where possible.

What is the best way to clean the textured surface?

Use a soft, dry cloth for dusting. For light cleaning, a slightly damp cloth can be used, avoiding excessive moisture. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.

Troubleshooting

Tile does not sit flat on the grid.

Check that the grid is level and square. Ensure the tile is fully seated and not obstructed by grid clips or other debris. Verify you are using a 24mm grid system.

Surface appears marked or dirty after handling.

Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe away marks. For tougher smudges, use a slightly damp cloth with minimal water. Consider wearing gloves during installation to prevent transferring oils from hands.

Excessive sound or echo in the room.

Ensure all tiles are properly installed with minimal gaps. Check if the total ceiling coverage is sufficient for the room's acoustics. Consider adding more sound-absorbing materials if necessary, though the tiles themselves offer acoustic benefits.

Grid system appears to sag under the weight of the tiles.

Verify that the grid system is adequately supported and rated for the weight of the ceiling tiles. Consult the grid manufacturer's specifications. The CDSBRS14 tile weighs approximately 6.28 lbs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the existing suspended grid system is level, secure, and compatible with 24mm ceiling tiles.
  2. Handle tiles carefully by the edges to avoid marking the surface, especially considering the textured finish. Wear gloves if necessary.
  3. Gently place each tile onto the grid system, ensuring it sits flush and securely.
  4. Adjust tiles as needed to maintain even spacing and alignment.

Compatibility:

  • This tile is specifically designed for use with standard 24mm (approx. 15/16 inch) suspended ceiling grid systems.
  • Ensure your grid system is rated to support the weight of these tiles (approximately 6.28 lbs each).

Care:

  • For general cleaning, use a soft, dry cloth or a slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture, which can damage the tile material.
  • For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive cleaner can be used sparingly on a damp cloth. Always test in an inconspicuous area first.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or power washing equipment, as these can damage the tile's surface and texture.
