Rockfon ceiling tiles are made of stone wool and provide great sound absorption while also being non-combustible and moisture resistant. The stone wool also provides durability. The range RCT stocks is Rockfon Artic tiles, which come with square, tegular, microlook edges, and come in two standard sizes. This guide will help you understand this product and its performances, and will determine which spaces it belongs in, so you can find the best match.
The Rockfon Artic range
Rockfon Artic is one of the most economical and cost saving stone wool tiles, and has a clean, modern white finish. The RCT stock comes with three edge details and two sizes, and they are the following:
All are 15mm thick.
Performance
Artic comes with stone wool advantages which include having a very high reaction-to-fire classification since stone wool is non-combustible. It also contains natural moisture and mould resistance, and has effective acoustic absorption, which is superior to the standard mineral fibre tile. It’s clean white face gives good light reflectance to brighten interiors. It is a durable, long-lasting tile suited to a broad range of commercial applications.
Choosing the right edge detail
The edge detail must match your grid. Square edg esits flush in a standard 24mm exposed grid and is the most common choice. Tegular edge drops the tile face below the grid line for a stepped, recessed appearance, also for a 24mm grid. Microlook is the equivalent stepped edge for a narrower 15mm grid, giving a finer shadow line. When replacing tiles, match the edge to the grid you already have.
Applications
Rockfon Artic suits commercial spaces where fire performance, moisture resistance, or durability matter alongside acoustic comfort – offices, retail, education, corridors and similar interiors. Its non-combustibility and moisture resistance make it a sound choice in areas where a standard mineral fibre tile might be a compromise, and the clean white finish suits professional settings.
Matching tile to project
For general commercial use where stone wool’s fire and moisture advantages are valued, specify Rockfon Artic in the edge detail that matches your grid. For purely budget-led areas where none of those is critical, a standard mineral fibre tile is more cost-effective. When replacing tiles in an existing Rockfon ceiling, match the range, size and edge detail – if you are unsure which Rockfon tile you have, a photo plus measurements lets the RCT team confirm it.

What distinguishes Tegular edges from Microlook edges?
