Faux Tin Ceiling Tiles - Beauty That's Better!
Faux tin ceiling tiles create extraordinarily beautiful ceilings, providing elegance that is simple to install, effortless to maintain, and easy on the budget. But are faux tin ceiling tiles really better than the traditional metal ceiling tiles that they replace? "Better" is certainly a relative term, but here are some factors that might help you look at tin ceiling tiles and faux tin ceiling tiles in a whole new light.
Are Tin Ceiling Tiles Actually Made of Tin?
Not at all. In fact, what we think of as the original tin tiles are really the original faux tin ceiling tiles - they weren't made of tin in the first place and never have been! Constructed of either sheet iron or sheet steel, these pressed metal tiles when introduced were widely called tin tiles becaue in those days people who worked in thin metal were known as tinsmiths, and tinsmiths often worked with these early pressed metal "tin" tiles.
Nowdays, aluminum has been added to the iron and steel choices, but what you are really buying is a faux tin ceiling tile, and you always have been.
Is a Faux Tin Ceiling Tile Made of Metal Better Than One Made of Vinyl?
That depends entirely on the plastic faux tin ceiling tile! While it is true that many imported faux tin products are very poorly made, from questionable materials and with no recognized quality or safety standards, domestic faux-tin ceiling tiles made from specially engineered plastic material are available that adhere to the very highest quality standards, and have indoor air quality and safety ratings that far exceed those of pressed metal.
Will a Faux Tin Ceiling Tile Made of Plastic Give You the Look and Feel of Traditional Tin?
Absolutely! And that plastic faux tin ceiling tile will do it without the special tools, skills, and safety gear required for installation (to prevent sheet metal cuts), and without busting your budget. Better yet, modern plastic faux tin ceiling tiles won't dent like pressed metal, won't tarnish like pressed metal, and won't require special cleaning or maintenance. What these modern faux tin ceiling tiles WILL do is create a faux tin ceiling of exceptional beauty and character, at an exceptionally good price.
