Although wood acoustic panel maintenance is a relatively simple task, it is important to carry it out so that both their sound absorption and aspect remain the same. In this respects, there are two different moments: panel maintenance before installation (of interest to fitters and installers) and their maintenance once they have been installed in their final location: Wood acoustic panel maintenance before installation. The place where wood acosutic panels are kept should be kept clean, dry and well ventilated. It is essential that panels be protected from humidity and rain, as water absorption can cause deformation. We therefore recommend that the material be unpacked at the time of installation and that the panels be kept for 24 to 48 hours at their final destination before being installed, in order to ensure that they adapt to the environment. Please remember that the original packaging does not protect the material from rain, moisture and impact and that no loads should be placed on top of the material. The place where the panels are installed should be under a roof and not have more than 60% humidity. Wood acoustic panel maintenance after installation. Dust and dirt on the surface of the panels can be removed using a damp cloth. Never use abrasives or products containing silicone. Any residual moisture on the surface should be thoroughly dried after cleaning to prevent damage. It is imperative that the structure of the panel is not damaged during cleaning. .

Decorative wood panels are a popular choice in interior design, not only for their aesthetic appeal, but also for their acoustic properties. However, it is important to understand that not all wood panels are sound-absorbent, and their ability to improve acoustics depends on their design and composition. Sound-absorbent decorative wood panels Sound-absorbent panels are specifically designed to improve sound quality by enabling acoustic conditioning. They are made of materials that absorb sound waves, preventing them from being reflected and helping to control acoustic reverberation, defined as the time lapse from the moment when a sound source stops emitting sound until the energy reaching the receiver decreases by 60 dB. These panels are usually composed of a combination of wood and absorbent materials, such as the 0.25 mm sound-absorbent acoustic veil attached to the back of Spigoacustic and Spigotec wood acoustic panels. These panels have grooves or perforations on the surface of the wood, allowing sound to penetrate and be absorbed by the underlying material. Depending on the percentage of perforated surface, they will have greater or lesser sound absorption. Finally, the visible surface of the panel has an aesthetic finish that can range from varnished natural wood to different melamine, lacquer and HPL options. NON sound-absorbent decorative wood panels On the other hand, NON sound-absorbent decorative wood panels are designed only for aesthetic purposes and do not provide an acoustic improvement to the room where they are installed. These panels are usually made of wood without perforations or additional sound-absorbing materials.

This summer, many of us have experienced the need for acoustic conditioning in tourist offices of many Spanish towns. Perhaps without knowing very well what was happening, we have been waiting for the tourism technician with a particular sense of discomfort. This discomfort, beyond the summer heat, was related to the lack of acoustic comfort. It happens that, often, the design of tourist offices has forgotten an essential factor for the correct attention of visitors: acoustics. These spaces are often located in busy, noisy areas, where the accumulation of sounds can be overwhelming. Additionally, modern offices often feature large, hard surfaces, such as glass and marble, that reflect sound rather than absorb it, intensifying acoustic reverberation. This phenomenon not only creates a noisy environment, but also makes speech understanding difficult, which can frustrate both tourists seeking information and employees trying to provide it. The solution lies in the installation of wood acoustic panels. These decorative wood panels are specifically designed to absorb sound, thereby reducing reverberation and improving the acoustic quality of the space. Wood, a natural and sustainable material, offers a dual benefit: in addition to its acoustic properties, it brings warmth and an aesthetically pleasing atmosphere to the environment. Installing these panels can transform a noisy and stressful office into a calm and welcoming space. Furthermore, wood is a versatile material that can adapt to different styles, allowing it to be seamlessly integrated into any tourist office. .
