Ceiling Tiles with Mold?PROBLEM(S): The tile pictured above looked fine and even actually clean but when it was taken down it had mold growing on the back side and in the tile. Mold is the new lead and asbestos problem for all of us. Mold contributes to sick building syndrome and decreases indoor air quality. Read the report from the US Government about mold. Ceiling tiles made of wood or mineral fiber are a huge contributor to the mold issue. SOLUTION:

Genesis Ceiling Tiles cannot grow mold in them. All wood and mineral fiber (acoustical, porous, vinyl coated sheet rock, etc) will grow mold in them. Most only show the mold on the side facing up away from the visitor. So until they are removed most will never know they have a mold issue other than by health issues by those working in the area of the tiles that are growing mold.CALL NOW Call Us at 800-518-9835 - or Email Us at sales@newceilingtiles.com -----------------------------------------------------------------3. Damaged or Missing Ceiling Tiles?
![]()
Did you know that damaged or missing tiles can be just more than an eye sore? Some local codes and the compliance code for US Government calls for any all damaged and/or missing tiles be replaced ASAP.
PROBLEM(S):
The problem is a loss of cooling or heating above the drop ceiling. Heat or cooling loss to the open area above costing you more to heat or cool the areas where tiles are damaged or missing. AC people, electricians and others will in time have to work above your drop ceiling and if you use the more common ceiling panels such as mineral or wood fiber ceiling tiles (also known as acoustical/porous tiles) they will more than likely be damaged or even destroyed.
