Do metal ceiling tiles have good sound reflection properties?

Yes, metal ceiling tiles like aluminum can provide good sound reflection, but it depends on the specific type and finish of the tiles. Metal surfaces can actually echo sound waves which often works in favour of acoustics in large spaces like offices, auditoriums, and commercial buildings. Now, the amount of sound reflected may vary due to the surface texture and whether the tiles are perforated or solid.

Dense metal tiles also reflect sound waves with greater precision, leading to echo or noise ramp-up in certain environments.

Often paired with acoustic backers, perforated metal tiles are used as a sound absorbing and diffusing solution to improve sound quality by reducing echo and controlling reverberation.
