Project Overview:
A company in Denver, Colorado needed to improve the acoustics of its main conference room. The room had large glass windows, hard floors, and bare walls, which caused strong echo during meetings and video calls.
Challenge:
The main problems were excessive reverberation, poor speech clarity, and a cold, noisy feeling during calls. The client wanted an acoustic solution that was effective, modern-looking, and quick to install without major construction. They also preferred a soft felt finish instead of a wood-grain look.
Solution:
We supplied slotted PET felt acoustic panels in custom grey. The panels were installed on the side walls and the back wall to reduce reflected sound. The slotted design helped break up sound waves while the felt surface added a clean, modern, and warm appearance.
Products Used:
- Slotted PET Felt Acoustic Panel
- Material: 100% PET felt / recycled PET felt
- Size: 600mm x 600mm / customizable
- Thickness: 9mm
- Design: slotted / grooved
- Color: Green and Blue/ Custom colors available
- Features: Eco-friendly, sound-absorbing, lightweight, easy to install
Installation:
The panels were installed with construction adhesive and a hidden batten system, which made alignment easy and kept the surface clean. The project was completed in a few days with minimal disruption to the office.
Results:
The conference room showed noticeably less echo and better speech clarity. Meeting participants could hear each other more clearly during in-person and online calls. The new acoustic wall also improved the room’s visual appearance with a soft, modern felt texture.
Client Feedback:
“The room used to sound hollow and noisy. After installing the slotted PET felt acoustic panels, meetings are much more comfortable and professional.”
