What is a fiberboard drop ceiling?

A fiberboard drop ceiling, also known as a fiberboard ceiling panel, is a type of suspended ceiling made from compressed, recycled wood fibers that are held together with a resin binder. These ceiling panels are often used in commercial and residential buildings because they are lightweight, easy to install, and offer sound insulation and fire-resistance properties. Fiberboard drop ceilings come in a variety of colors and styles, including smooth, embossed, and patterned finishes. They are typically installed in a grid system of metal rails or tracks, referred to as a T-bar suspension system, to create a seamless look.
