Our Brasília drop ceiling tiles go beautifully with modern or mid-century modern decorating to elevate any space. The precise angles at the edges are matched so the shadows transition beautifully across the ceiling for a graceful 3D design. Brasília is a lively city full of high-end style and design, our Brasilia ceiling tile will deliver just that to what would normally be a very ordinary suspended grid ceiling. For an even more modernist design, our Brasilia and Bilbao tile designs combine with a synergy that really pushes the envelope in ceiling design for a custom designer look.

Cleanable Unlike mineral fiber ceiling tiles, Brutal Ceiling tiles are anti-bacterial and non- porous. Since it is an exterior grade PVC, it can be cleaned with any home cleaning product or antiviral disinfectants to ensure surfaces are safe.
Fire Sprinklers:
When installing BRUTAL tiles in ceilings with sprinkler systems, cut the hole at least 1/4" diameter larger than the sprinkler escutcheon/trim (leaving a visible 1/8" gap around the edge). This allows the tile to fall away from the ceiling during a fire and not foul the sprinkler system.
Brutal Ceilings is a family run and owned business that designs and manufactures ceiling tiles in the U.S.A. We strive to provide fast service and great personalized customer support.
Our tiles are made with a high quality exterior-grade PVC that is completely moisture resistant, Class A fire tested (10-2020), and easy to clean. They are recommended for interior use.
Our approach with our premiere series of tiles has been to create deceptively simple shapes, that combined in large field can result in a captivating interaction of repeating patterns in light and shadow. These tiles are also optimal for staging dramatic lighting effects.
Brutal tiles are especially compatible with modern, contemporary and mid-century modern spaces. Brutal tiles are dynamic, three-dimensional, and reversible. They can be flipped and rotated, combined and swapped in a near-infinite array of tile combinations.
The BRUTAL Difference
Material
Material
While standard tiles get soggy and decay with mold, Brutal tiles are made from sanitary exterior-grade PVC that will never rot or decay.
Design
Where standard tiles are ugly and mundane, Brutal tiles offer an array of elegant three-dimensional designs in bright white with a hyper-modern touch. They are also molded with a fabric texture for extra artistic flair. They look great from a distance and very interesting close up.
Versatility
Standard acoustic tiles really only have one way to install, whereas Brutal tiles can be rotated, flipped, and swapped to create anything from a uniform grid to a dynamic and eye-catching ceiling landscape.
What makes Brutal Ceilings unique?
Brutal tiles are dynamic, three-dimensional, and reversible. They can be flipped and rotated, combined and swapped in a near-infinite array of tile combinations. Our tiles are also optimal for dramatic lighting effects. Spotlights, high hats, and RGB LED strips can be used around the periphery of the ceiling to create alternately contrasting and colorful ceilingscapes.
Are Brutal tiles compatible with standard ceiling grids?
Our designs are only intended to work with the standard 15/16" wide ceiling grid, the norm in most drop ceilings today. Some of our tiles can also be glued to a flat surface.
How are these superior to regular drop ceilings?
Brutal's line of geometric tiles redefine the drop ceiling with sculptural PVC ceiling tiles that are not only stylish, but functional. They are easy to sanitize in our more microbial conscious age, unlike traditional acoustic tiles that sag and stain from moisture.
Which Brutal tiles can be glued up?
Not all Brutal tiles work with Glue-Up, if this is needed we recommend using our Globen, Europa or SoBe tiles which will lay flat for gluing on your ceiling or wall.
To prep tiles for painting, first clean the surface with soap and water, or water with TSP and rinse. No need to scuff or sand.
You can paint the tiles with several methods:
Paint PVC tiles with a spray can:
Krylon Fusion for Plastic Spray
Rust-Oleum Paint for Plastic Spray (even shows a PVC molded chair on the label)
Paint PVC tiles with a spray gun / roller / brush:
Sherwin Williams VinylSafe 100% acrylic latex – wide range of color options
Which Brutal tiles can accommodate lighting?
Blox, Brasilia, Sobe, Europa, and Globen can all have installed lights provided that proper procedures are used.
The example lighting photos we show use a 7 1/2" diameter LED light. For reference, the distance across the center bowl of Globen is 11 inches.
We advise that the lights must be supported from above the suspended ceiling, as the tiles should not support any weight, since that would cause distortion and lifting around the edges. Some experimentation will be necessary to appropriately hang a lighting fixture. For more on lighting, Click here.
