Ceiling Tiles

"Armstrong World Industries, a manufacturer of interior furnishings, has initiated a Ceiling Recycling Program that allows building owners to recycle old ceiling tiles rather than sending them to the landfill. As part of the program, the company will pay the cost of shipping the old ceiling tiles to its plant, where they will be used as raw materials in the manufacture of new acoustical ceilings. Neither the old nor the new replacement ceilings tiles need to be Armstrong products to qualify for the program, and Armstrong offers information for building owners to verify that their ceiling tiles can be recycled.
For more information about the program, call 888-CEILINGS (888 234-5464)."
