WHAT ARE FABRIC WRAPPED ACOUSTIC PANELS?

Fabric wrapped acoustic panels consist of two primary components, a fabric facing, and an acoustical core (typically 6# per cubic foot fiberglass).

With thousands of fabric choices from manufacturers like Guilford of Maine, Carnegie, Knoll, Maharam, Designtex, and others, fabric wrapped panels can be designed to fit any aesthetic. While these panels are most efficient when covered with acoustically transparent fabric, virtually any fabric can be used.

Keep in mind that different fabrics may alter absorption coefficients, but our team can help optimize your selection.

Core materials can be customized to fit the needs of any space. The most common core consists of 6# per cubic foot fiberglass. Other construction materials, like a foil backing, a mass loaded vinyl layer, a semi-diffusive layer, or an impact-resistant facing can be combined to tune and adapt fabric wrapped panels to any environment.

Key criteria in the selection of acoustic panels include:

  • Tight dimensional tolerances
  • Class A fire rating (ASTM-E84)
  • Most efficient absorption element
  • Cost effective solution

In using acoustic panels to solve noise problems, the three critical elements to consider are ABSORPTION, DURABILITY AND AESTHETICS.

1. ABSORPTION

Used to control reverberation time or harsh reflections, introducing comfortable communications within a space. 

2. DURABILITY

Variety of core materials and face materials can be combined to create long-lasting absorption systems that can withstand a variety of climates.

3. AESTHETICS

Metal, wood, fabric, PET, and custom printing ensure acoustic panels look great in any space.

WHY OELEX FABRIC WRAPPED PANELS?

Oelex fabric wrapped panels are constructed according to the highest tolerances and specifications in the industry. Only Oelex panels carry the Oelex Guarantee, which is twice as long as the industry standard with a lifetime guarantee on acoustical performance.

Oelex fabric wrapped panels can be configured with a variety of edge details and thicknesses, including ½” through 4″ thick, to achieve NRC ratings from 0.50 for ½” panels to over 1.00 for 2″ panels. Using reflective, tackable, or mass-loaded vinyl elements inside the panel, we can tune each panel to suit the needs of a space.
