FAQ
Acoustics & Function
Improved acoustics, increased comfort, a calmer atmosphere, and a visual enhancement of the space.
Yes, our panels are tested and designed to deliver measurable improvements in acoustics.
It provides more comfort, reduces noise disturbances, and makes conversations easier – especially in large or open spaces.
No, they absorb sound – they do not block sound transmission between rooms but improve the sound environment in the room where they are installed.
They reduce reverberation and absorb unwanted noise, creating a more pleasant acoustic environment.
It’s the time sound “lingers in the air” after the source has stopped. A shorter reverberation time means better sound quality.
Good acoustics improve speech intelligibility, reduce stress, and create a more comfortable sound environment – both at home and at work.
These are decorative panels that reduce reverberation by absorbing and diffusing sound waves. The combination of slats and felt provides both visual appeal and acoustic improvement.
Design, Selection & Interior Design
-
Choose low contrast between felt and surface
-
Use the panels in smaller sections
-
Place them outside of the direct line of sight
-
Combine them with decorations like mirrors or artwork
-
Mount slats horizontally for a calmer visual effect
It’s a visual disturbance caused by high contrast between light and dark elements in the interior, especially on large surfaces.
They are both – designed to improve acoustics while adding a modern aesthetic to the room.
As we use genuine wood veneer, natural variations in colour and grain will occur. This is part of the authentic and exclusive look.
Consider the function of the room, the colour tones, the amount of hard surfaces, and how much sound absorption you need. For example, choose darker felt for warm and muted rooms, and light felt to make a space feel airier.
Fire safety & Application
No, they are not suitable for humid areas such as bathrooms or for outdoor use, as wood veneer and MDF may be damaged by moisture.
No, the panels are intended for indoor use only. They are not suited for direct water contact or prolonged high humidity.
For wood stoves and distance requirements, please consult your local chimney sweep, as rules and recommendations may vary depending on stove type and installation.
Our standard panels are not fire-classified, but we offer a special series with fire classification B-s1,d0, developed for environments with higher fire safety requirements.
Installation & Customisation
They can be mounted on plaster, concrete, wood, and other flat surfaces – and shaped to fit curved walls as needed.
Yes, they can be bent up to approx. 45 degrees and mounted on curved surfaces like columns or rounded walls.
Yes, they can easily be adjusted using a plunge saw or circular saw. We recommend using painter’s tape along the cut line to prevent chipping of the veneer or surface layer.
Use screws through the felt layer directly into the substrate, or mount the panels on battens for better sound absorption. It is recommended that two people carry out the ceiling installation.
The panels can be mounted directly onto walls or ceilings using screws through the felt layer or onto battens for improved acoustic performance. We offer detailed installation guides for both wall and ceiling mounting.
Material & Environment
Yes, they meet current standards for low emissions and are made with a focus on a healthy indoor climate and environmental responsibility.
Off-gassing is a natural process where materials emit odours shortly after unpacking. It is not dangerous in normally ventilated spaces and typically disappears within a few days.
Some panels are FSC®-certified, and several are Nordic Swan Ecolabelled. Additionally, the materials are tested for low emissions and meet indoor climate requirements.
The panels consist of slats in various surface finishes – depending on the type – on a core of MDF, and a backing of acoustic PET felt made from recycled plastic.
