Acoustic Tiles

Q: Where do you put acoustic tiles?

The main areas you place this product are on walls and ceilings. Often, you’ll find that wall panels are the most common type, but many drop-down ceilings now also use soundproofing tiles. This ensures the sound is absorbed in all corners of the room. Acoustic floor tiles can be used in multi-story buildings to keep foot traffic noise from bothering residents on the floor below.

Q: Can you paint acoustic ceiling tiles?

Yes, but you can’t use regular paint. Your standard wall or ceiling paint will fill the pores in the tiles and negate the sound-dampening effect. It's vital to use special primers, paint, and sprays that have been developed for use on these tiles. However, always double-check the type of tile and paint you’re using.

Acoustic tiles are an excellent addition to any space, improving the acoustics and often even the aesthetics in a stylish way. There are several types to choose from including acoustic ceiling tiles and wall soundproofing tiles with versatile situations to match a range of needs. ArchiPro features only the best acoustic tiles in Australia from suppliers you can trust.

Types of acoustic tiles

There are a few types of acoustic tiles in Australia which include options for the ceiling, walls and floor.

Dropped ceiling

A dropped ceiling is a secondary, lower ceiling you use to hide pipes and electrical cables. It’s the perfect place to use acoustic ceiling tiles to reduce noise and echo.

Glued-on tiles

These acoustic tiles glue onto a flat surface. These are convenient to use on your ceiling, but can also be used on the wall. You can soundproof and style your standard ceiling in various ways with the glue-on tile.

Wall tile

Wall acoustic tiles can also be glued onto the wall and provide soundproofing. Some homeowners in Australia also use them as a feature on their walls. They work very well in conjunction with acoustic insulation.

Floor tile

Acoustic floor coverings have been specially developed to reduce reverberations and echo in spaces. These types of flooring now come in a range of styles to incorporate seamlessly into most projects. They’re especially useful in areas where sound quality is important, such as recording studios, or in areas with a lot of foot traffic such as hotel common areas and hallways.

The advantages of high-quality acoustic tiles

High-quality tiles are an excellent way to reduce the noise echo in a room. They are more effective at providing better-quality sound and are often designed in a way to make the room’s interior look more stylish. Premium products also utilise the best materials and design innovations in order to optimise their performance. This also makes them more robust and long-lasting. You easily find many styles and designs for dropped-down ceilings or flat surfaces like standard ceilings and walls when searching through a range of high-quality options.

How to choose an acoustic tile that’s right for you

Before you choose your acoustic tiles in Australia, consider some key factors. The ceiling type will determine which acoustic tiles you can use. Some designs only work with dropped-down ceilings, while others are better for traditional flat ceilings. Next, you should consider the space’s atmosphere and what style you’re looking for. These will be highly visible features so it’s important that the styling is right with respect to your interior design and decor. You might also want to think about a holistic approach that includes other products like acoustic furniture, acoustic fabrics, or acoustic panels. This will make your sound environment even more robust for those with more demanding requirements.

Do acoustic tiles keep sound out?

No, this tile doesn’t keep sound out, but it dampens the sound transfer and reverberation. You’ll find that using this product muffles the sound when you’re in another room and provides better acoustics. As such, it's not entirely soundproof, but it reduces echoes and noise.
