Description
Black plaster ceiling tiles are the most popular choice for modern retail and commercial fitouts across the UK. The deep matte black finish creates a clean, high-contrast ceiling that defines the look of vape shops, fashion boutiques, beauty salons, restaurants and offices — environments where ceiling design forms part of the overall brand identity. Made from 100% gypsum with a vinyl-faced, wipe-clean surface and silver foil backing, these tiles are built for long-term commercial use.

How Many Boxes Do I Need?
Each box contains 8 tiles at 600×600mm, covering approximately 2.88 sqm. To calculate your requirement:
- Measure ceiling length × width in metres to get total sqm
- Divide total sqm by 2.88
- Round up to the nearest whole number
- Add 10% for cutting waste at edges and around obstacles
Example: A 5m × 4m room = 20 sqm ÷ 2.88 = 7 boxes. Add 10% = 8 boxes recommended.
