Quick Facts

  • Made from durable PVC
  • Lasts a lifetime
  • Class A Fire Rated
  • Waterproof
  • Clean with soap and water
  • Mold and mildew resistant.
  • Stain resistant
  • Flexible yet strong
  • Lightweight and easy to install
  • Low coffer can be used with a surface-mount grid system or limited head-space ceiling grid.
  • 2x2 Actual Size - 23-5/8" x 23-5/8"
  • 2x4 Actual Size - 23-5/8" x 47-5/8"

These thermoform tiles are made from UV Stabilized .013" thick vinyl plastic. They are designed to provide all the functionality of conventional drop ceiling tiles at a fraction of the weight. The feather-light construction makes them a breeze to install, easy to clean, stain resistant, water resistant, dust free, and eco friendly! Installation is fast and couldn't be any easier.

Designed to fit all standard 15/16" T-Bar Ceiling Systems. Will not fit in a 9/16" grid, please measure the visible width of your grid.

Not recommended for direct mount installation

Most of the thermoform ceiling tiles come in two sizes, 2'x2' and 2'x4', but if you have a 2x4 grid ceiling and would prefer the look of the 2x2 ceiling tiles, simply insert a 2' center T bar available online or at most local hardware stores...it's easy!

5 Year ProShield Warranty
The ceiling tile manufacturer guarantees that your ceiling tiles will be free from manufacturing defects for a period of five years from the date of purchase. Limitations apply. See full warranty information below.

UL Listing/Certification
ProLite ceiling tiles bearing this mark are UL tested and approved drop-out ceiling panels that can be installed beneath fire sprinklers. When exposed to heat from a developing fire, drop-out ceiling panels soften, distort, and fall from the ceiling grid. Heat from the growing fire activates the sprinkler which, unimpeded by the panels, controls or extinguishes the fire.

Highlights:
The Southland Grid Tile is a great style if you desire to upgrade the look of your current ceiling while maintaining a laid-back feel. Being that it is Class A Fire rated, it is an excellent choice for most businesses and homes. We are also proud to say that it is made in the USA.

Things to Consider:
The Southland tile is not suitable for use as a direct mount tile since it is not flat on the back.

While only .013" thick, the embossed design gives it the rigidity and structure needed to support itself in the grid without sagging. To avoid the risk of sagging, we discourage placing any weight directly on the tile, with the exception of our Soniguard insulation; it has been tested and approved for this purpose as an alternative to traditional insulation. If you would like to keep your existing acoustical tile in the grid for insulation or sound barrier purposes, we recommend that you place it above the framework so that it is not putting any weight on the Southland.

If your grid is already white and in good condition, it should match the white Southland tile very well. If you are going with a colored option, we highly recommend that you consider the Grid Tape or Grid Strips since they are color coordinated with the ProLite collection. If you would prefer to avoid the extra expense, you can, of course, paint your grid as well.

Greenguard
Greenguard Gold Certification offers strict certification criteria that considers safety factors to account for sensitive individuals (such as children and the elderly), and ensures that a product is acceptable for use in environments such as schools and healthcare facilities. It is referenced by both The Collaborative for High Performance Schools (CHPS) and the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Building Rating System. Click here for more information.

UL Listing/Certification
Certain ProLite ceiling tiles are approved drop-out ceiling panels that can be installed beneath fire sprinklers. When exposed to heat from a developing fire, drop-out ceiling panels soften, distort, and fall from the ceiling grid. Heat from the growing fire activates the sprinkler which, unimpeded by the panels, controls or extinguishes the fire. Click here for more information.

Waterproof
Materials used in the construction of the tile(s) are 100% waterproof.

Class A Fire Rated
Tiles have been tested in accordance with ASTM 84e and scored a Class A rating for flame spread and smoke generation.

This is a fantastic product.

These tiles are exactly as advertised. They are very easy to install and they look great. I have already received a lot of compliments on them and my project is not even completely finished.

good product

The tiles are lighter than you expect, so mounting lights to it is tough plus the ridges make it so it's easier to use different options for lighting. The appearance and design is worth the price. The best info I heard was who is going to be touching the tiles anyway so why worry about thickness.

Looks Great

With this material, I much prefer the 2x2 over 2x4 (the latter is too flexible and challenge to install.

All things fantastic!

We could not be more pleased with our recent purchase of the Southland ceiling tiles! Quick shipping, quality products, a large selection of materials and colors to choose from, and the best customer service we have ever experienced. We had a minor issue during shipping and after contacting customer service, we received a personal phone call from Jason, and immediately the situation was resolved. Actually, they went above and beyond in the resolution. Since completing the project we have referred 2 people to Proceilingtiles. I would highly recommend Proceilingtiles and will definitely use them for all my future remodeling needs.

Looks fantastic

I got them for my laundry room as access is needed to the actual ceiling. While they are flimsy they work perfect and are really, really nice to look at. Maybe most ceiling tiles are flimsy not sure, no experience with them. Don't let that stop you from getting these tiles. Once they are up, they make quite a nice statement. Product was well packaged, no issues with this company what-so-ever.

Amazing results, killer style

These tiles look freaking amazing. Created a workout/peleton room for my wife and I. These black tiles, with some black walls and smart color changing bulbs made our room feel as if we were in a real workout studio. Not to mention the ordering process was smooth sailing with frequent status updates and fast turn around to my doorstep. Install took no time at all and a simple wet cloth wipe down after install to remove the dust was a breeze. Thanks for everything and I'd purchase these 10x over.

Great look for our business

We used this tile for our store. We wanted it to look industrial but clean. I did not want an open ceiling. Everyone who comes into the store comments about how awesome the ceiling looks. Extremely easy to install and cut. I would recommend this to everyone.
