8. The ceiling panel of claim 1 comprising a glass fibre facing on at least one of the two major faces.

9. The ceiling panel of claim 2 wherein the milled polymeric foam is a polyurethane foam.

10. The ceiling panel of claim 4 wherein the layer of milled polymeric foam covers not more than one quarter of the width of the minor face.

11. The ceiling panel of claim 6 wherein the panel has a density in the range of 90 to 120 kg/m 3 .

12. The ceiling panel of claim 1 wherein the layer of milled polymeric foam has a three-dimensional edge profile.
