AMF
Knauf AMF, which belongs to the Knauf group, is amongst the first manufacturers of mineral fibre ceiling tiles. The tiles are made of a wet-felted combination of wool and binder, which gives great properties for acoustic absorption, light reflectance and fire. These along with other attributes explain the great popularity of mineral fibre tiles in commercial ceiling applications in the UK.
AMF Planet
Planet is the AMF economic tile that has a light commercial grade textured finish. RCT stocks standard square Edge tiles in sizes of 595 mm (20 tiles per box) and 1195 mm (12 tiles per box). Due to its cost driven performance characteristics, this tile is suitable for retail, storage, education and office etc.

RCT stocks it as a square edge tile in595mm x 595mm (20 per box) and 1195mm x 595mm(12 per box). It caters to offices and commercial interiors requiring a marginally better grade finish than the entry level tile.
