Last time I checked, Armstrong takes them if you meet their criteria. Non painted, and such. 30,000 sq ft. they come get them without a shipping charge. They need to be stacked and pallatized,shrink wrapped and such....but well worth the effort.

We sell suspended ceiling demolition and recycling tools at Professional Engineering Co., Inc. Visit our web site for more information at Professional Engineering Co., Inc. - Suspended Ceiling Wire Cutters - Cut down twice the ceiling grid in the same time!

Does anyone save to recycle suspended ceiling tiles?

Hi Doug!

At least here in Finland, about 50% of the ceeling tiles have asbestos in them! keep that in mind when you start reselling them;)

I work for a demo contractor in connecticut and i have recycled ceiling tiles before .. i worked with armstrong on that but you typically need 40,000 square feet of tile to have them take it. It also has to be palletized and shrink wrapped.

Only when it was required. If they are Armstrong tiles, you can send them to Armstrong for recycling. Here is more information on that program.

I haven't seen a company around here that paints and resells them. Interesting idea, but I am not sure if they could be reused in a new environment, I would think for warranty purposes.
