Ceiling Tiles / Foundation Collection
Designed for Flexibility
Flat and drop designs built to round out our ceiling tile options. Use these tiles for a traditional look, or to accommodate partial panels, lights or other ceiling fixtures.
Our tiles are designed to go beyond aesthetics to impact how a space feels and functions, including how it sounds. Excessive noise puts the nervous system in a state of alert, undermining focus and productivity. The acoustic benefits from our tiles help control sound, reducing cognitive fatigue and creating environments that are more supportive of well-being.
Flat
Flat tiles are multipurpose, extending the visual story beyond focal areas or working well on their own. Sitting above the grid system, this tile is offered in 2'x2' or 2'x4' configuration. By supporting more expressive forms without competing with them, they help create a seamless, cohesive ceiling experience.
The installation workhorse, cut it to size for partial tiles around your room’s perimeter. PET offers better sound absorption than most traditional ceiling tiles, while being more durable, washable and resistant to cracking or sagging.
1/4" Drop
Designed to sit flush with the grid for a seamless look, plus all the noise absorption benefits of PET. Use for a whole room, or to complement other Qwel tile designs.
Foundation Collection tiles are built to navigate sprinklers, sensors and other ceiling mounted objects, meaning you never have to make sacrifices overhead.
1" Drop
This tile subtly elevates the aesthetic of a space by adding visual intrigue and acoustic comfort without drawing attention to itself. Designed to work on its own, or pair with linear wave for a seamless, matched transition between tiles.
A subtle dimensional tile designed for full-ceiling applications. The 1” Drop accommodates common ceiling elements like recessed lighting and sensors.

Featured Products
Flat Tile
Flat tiles are the installation work horses of Qwel ceiling tiles. Flat tiles must be used when tiles need to be cut to size for any partial panel size around a room perimeter. Flats may also be used to provide clearance for ceiling mounted objects such as sprinklers and sensors.
The Flat tile sits above the grid system and may be installed throughout a room or as a complimentary visual aesthetic to other Qwel tile designs.
1/4″ Drop
1/4″ Drop tiles offer a traditional approach to a suspended ceiling look with all of the noise absorbtion benefits that PET felt has to offer. 1/4″ Drops may also be used to provide clearance for ceiling mounted objects such as sprinklers and sensors.
The 1/4″ Drop tile sits below the grid system and may be installed throughout a room or as a complimentary visual aesthetic to other Qwel tile designs.
1″ Drop
The 1″ Drop tile offers visual interest without distractions. Enable focus, concentration and productivity. While not an option for cut-to-size needs, the 1″ Drop accommodates most types of ceiling mounted objects including recessed lights, sprinkler heads and sensors.
