My thoughts and experience with AMF THERMATEX Mercure tiles
I am a contractor who deals with many clients who don’t yet know what want. It’s up to me to give the client options that can satisfy their needs. Every ceiling tile manufacturer has their economy range acoustic ceiling tiles. Generally speaking, I consider most to be very similar in terms of acoustic performance. This, of course, is in direct relation to the price the consumer pays for the tile. Like all-economy range tiles, AMF THERMATEX Mercure Tiles have a flat painted finish that looks good however, marks easily.
Mercure tiles are priced very cost-effectively, considering other options out there. This means that replacement isn’t an expensive excise if you suffer damage or excessive marking. Clients tend to prefer acoustic tiles with finer fissures over deeper more course fissures. This is where the AMF Mercure Tiles truly shines! Its fissure pattern is finer and more sparse than the majority of its competitors at that price point. Based on public opinion this is the preferred pattern for economy tiles. In over 50 percent of projects, we do, aesthetics is an important consideration for the client.
As a matter of fact, the vast majority of my clients love the outstanding value of AMF THERMATEX Mercure Tiles as it is nearly always considered for their ceilings. Basically, other similar products are simply not openly available at this price point with the same sparse fissure pattern. Above all, the big seller here is VALUE! What you get for the amount you pay.
Consequently, the value is what really stands out here for me. Especially considering its price point. In other words, You get nice fine fissures, and furthermore you get good acoustic performance as well.
