M-Boss Inc. Specializes in Replicating Original Patterns: Providing Authentic Replacements and Historically Accurate New Tin Ceilings To the Restoration, Renovation, and Historically Styled New Construction Marketplace.

Tin ceilings became popular during the early 1900s as a decorative and low-cost substitute to expensive, artistic plaster. The Industrial Revolution and its automation meant that ornamental plastering and intricate stucco effects could be faithfully reproduced in metal. Metal provided the same beauty as plaster in a maintenance-free format: additionally, metal had the benefit of fire-safeness and economical installation making it a superior option.

These same superior qualities exist today. Thanks to M-Boss Inc. several new advantages have been added. Aluminum, not used extensively until after the Industrial Revolution, is now the preferred metal because of its superior performance. For example, aluminum is lighter in weight than tin plated steel so its easier to install and it saves on shipping.

And, because aluminum is rustproof, its perfect for high-humidity areas such as bathrooms and kitchens as well as high-humidity coastal climates. M-Boss Inc. products also are available in economical tin-plated steel and solid copper, which left untreated over time takes on the rich patina of copper from yesteryear. The aging process of copper can be hastened or stopped by applying a chemical solution.

In addition, M-Boss Inc. is leading the commercial and residential design trend of focusing on ceilings as the fifth wall that is currently sweeping America. For many years, decorating focus was put on floors and walls, ignoring the greatest expansethe ceiling, says Bill Perk, president of M-Boss Inc. Thanks to our superior product and aggressive marketing efforts, now many builders, designers, architects and homeowners are installing our ceilings.

Our products have been featured in several design houses during the last 12 months, including HDTVs Dream Home in Alabama and Coastal Living magazines Idea Home in Mira Bay, Florida.

Contributing to the popularity of M-Boss Inc. products is the fact that they offer over 200 patterns. This number of patterns is substantially higher than any competitor. And each pattern is available in several dozen finishes, so theres one sure to match any decor. And because M-Boss Inc. uses a proprietary manufacturing process they can cost-effectively custom design a pattern or finish to your specifications. Our process allows us to specialize in providing custom designs and custom colors.

If you have a vision, we can make it happen, says Perk. Basically, we can match or design any pattern.

And, M-Boss Inc. products arent confined to just ceilings. Panels can be used as wainscoting, door insets and backsplasheseven wall art. We like to say, our uses are only confined by your imagination, says Perk.

If you are restoring a historic property or building a new one and want to incorporate all the charm of yesteryear with modern products, contact M-Boss Inc today. Theyll help you take your ceiling from boring to brilliant. Call them toll-free 866-PANELS-8 (866-726-3578) or visit them on-line at: www.mbossinc.com
