We receive many inquiries about instructions for the assembly and installation of Spigoline PET System wall covering with wood slats and, in this post, we will try to clear up all the doubts.
The PET System is an acoustic panel with a modern, timeless design that combines solid natural ayous wood slats arranged in parallel with an eco-friendly insulating panel with high thermal and acoustic performance, made of 80% recycled polyester fibres, 100% recyclable and with a low carbon footprint.
First of all, you need to know the kind kind of sound absorption that your project requires. The EN ISO 11654 international standard has five absorption classes, A, B, C, D and E. Sound absorption class A has the highest degree of absorption. The PET System allows you to achieve type A, C and D absorption, depending on the way you choose to install it and whether you use mineral wool.
Class D sound absorption
Spigoline PET panels are fixed directly to the wall with screws (we recommend black) with a length of at least 35 mm in the felt area or with glue or contact adhesive.
Class C sound absorption
First you need to install 45×45 mm wood battens. We recommend a spacing of 300-400 mm between them. The Spigoline PET panels are then fastened directly with screws at least 35 mm long.
Class A sound absorption
To achieve greater sound absorption, you can add mineral wool in the gaps between the battens which form a substructure of 45×45 mm every 300-400 mm.
