Many people notice walls in offices, restaurants or auditoriums covered with slotted or oblong perforated acoustic panels but they do not know what they are for. Although they play a major aesthetic role, because wood is a widely used material in interior decoration, the truth is that they are used to control reverberation, acoustically conditioning the room.
These acoustic tiles have a number of perforations on their surface that allow sound to pass through to a black 0.25 mm sound-absorbent veil. Depending on the percentage of the panel surface that is perforated, the panel absorbs more or less sound. Finally, we only need to choose the panel that has the sound absorption capacity we need to balance out noise effects, such as reverberation.
Spigotec’s catalog features nine models of acoustic panels that have slotted or oblong perforations ranging from the TAURO 5 PAR model with 6.5% of its surface perforated to the ARIES 16 model with 11.10 % of its surface perforated. All can be used with melamine, natural wood, lacquered or HPL finishes, on standard, fire-retardant or water-repellent MDF supports. Installation is very simple and can be done with exposed profile, fineline T15, semi-exposed T15/T24 or concealed T24 systems for ceilings, and concealed T24 systems (6mm), dovetailed or Omega+Grapa profile systems for walls.
