Product Description

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 Stratford 2x2 grid tile is our most popular drop ceiling tile. Its classic simplicity makes it a great option for any type of space. Our customers are continually amazed at its ability to transform the look of their room. Being that it is FDA compliant, it is an excellent choice for restaurants. We are also proud to say that it is made in the USA.

Things to Consider:
Since the Stratford tile is not flat on the back, it is not suitable for use as a direct mount tile.

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 Stratford.

It is more than likely that your room has partial tiles around the perimeter. Not to worry- The Stratford tile lays nice and flat in the grid when cut to any size. Since the recession of the design is only .5", the gap is unnoticeable for most applications. View product images and customer installation photos for examples.

If your grid is already white and in good condition, it should match the white Stratford 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 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.

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.

Works well as border cut tile with Madison Ceiling Tile

We use this tile for the borders with Madison Ceiling Tile for our drop ceiling basement. Result was great. It can be cut easily and stayed the shape even for very small pieces. Good price, great customer service, fast shipping.

Excellent, inexpensive way to address sprinklers above drop ceilings

Got these to replace regular drop ceiling panels under my sprinkler heads. The fallaway nature will allow them to melt and fall at 120 degrees, giving the sprinklers full coverage should the heat reach O and activate the sprinklers. Easy to install, fit the existing 2x2 grid perfectly, and look great in pure white. A much better solution than the alternative of dropping the sprinkler head below the ceiling panels.

Very good if you know what to expect

We replaced our entire basement ceiling with these. The old ceiling had fiberboard tiles which had a bad habit of getting water stains and needing to be replaced on a regular basis. The old ones were dusty and dirty and just generally gross. These have made a huge improvement. The style is much nicer and the white color really brightens the room overall. The vinyl material is FAR easier to work with than the fiberboard. They are easier to cut, and can bend and twist to get them into tight spaces. They can be easily cleaned and -- I assume -- won't be ruined by a few drops of water from a sweaty pipe. The cons would be that these are super-thin, and as such have little to no insulation or sound-deadening. The fiberboard tiles did offer a little more in both of those areas. This was not a big deal for us, and you could add insulation if it was important to you. Just be aware that the manufacturer does not recommend insulation resting on the tile directly because it is unlikely they could support the weight. Speaking of which, we did attach 6" puck-type LED lights directly to the tiles, even though that is also not recommended. We didn't have any problem with it supporting the lights. Overall very happy with the purchase.

Wouldn?t buy again

Extremely thin. Customer service rep wouldn’t respond to my email.

Hi Meghan, thank you for taking the time to share your experience! The Stratford is among the thinnest line of our decorative tiles, but with the same premium look and last-forever durability of our thicker tiles (without the higher pricing). We did respond to your email, but it sounds like that didn't arrive. We're sorry for that headache. It looks like we were able to help when you called in a few days later. Never hesitate to reach out with questions or concerns, our team is here and happy to help. Thanks again for your review, and for including us in your project!

Best drop ceilings tiles

Gradually replacing all our drop ceiling tiles with these. They look terrific, don't show water damage from inevitable leaks, installation is very easy, and they are so affordable. Highly, highly recommended.

Excellent product

I recently purchased plastic ceiling tiles for a home renovation project, and I couldn't be more satisfied. The quality of the tiles is excellent-they're lightweight, durable, and easy to work with. Installation was a breeze, and they fit perfectly into the grid system. What really impressed me was how sleek and modern they look once installed. They instantly gave the room a cleaner and more finished appearance. These tiles are also moisture-resistant, which made them a great choice for my basement ceiling. They're much easier to clean than traditional tiles, and I love that they won't sag or stain over time. Overall, a fantastic purchase that I would highly recommend to anyone looking to upgrade their ceiling without breaking the bank.

So many compliments

We’re absolutely thrilled with our experience using ProCeiling Tiles! We selected the Stratford ceiling tile design from Ceilume in the Faux Bronze finish, and it completely elevated the look of our basement. The tiles added a rich, coffered-wood aesthetic that perfectly matches the speakeasy vibe we were going for—and the compliments haven’t stopped. Most people can’t believe they’re ceiling tiles! ProCeiling Tiles stood out for their fast shipping, clear communication, and flexible, by-the-tile pricing—far better than the overpriced, box-only options from other suppliers. Their transparency and customer service made the ordering process seamless. We loved the product so much, we placed a second order for the same Stratford tiles in white to match our finished drywall ceiling and discreetly cover the main electrical runs. If you’re looking for decorative ceiling tiles that are stylish, easy to install, and budget-friendly, ProCeiling Tiles is the way to go. Highly recommend!
