Custom Acoustic Canvas

The acoustic canvas is another form of use of the Silentmax^® material. Thanks to a specific printing method, the material retains all its acoustic properties; it absorbs acoustic energy and reduces echo and noise in the room. It is meant to serve anywhere where reverberation times needs to be reduced: in modern interiors, but also in offices, meeting rooms, classrooms, auditoriums and so on. The smaller effective area compared to spatial solutions (Silentmax3D) is balanced by greater possibilities for integration into the overall interior design concept.

Our frameless acoustic image is slim and modern, the custom-printed motif can become both austere and discreet, or extravagant. The contribution of the panel to the improvement of room acoustic properties, acoustic comfort and aesthetics is permanent. Made of 100% PET recyclate, the panels have a high mechanical and chemical resistance, are non-flammable, odour-proof and easy to maintain. Silentmax^® acoustic panels are strong and yet only 12 mm thick. The print itself is of the highest quality.

Special Printing Method

We print on Silentmax^® in its entirety. The droplets of special paint surround the individual 20 µm thick fibres and the structure of the acoustic panel remains breathable. Neither the acoustic nor the physical properties of the panel and print change over time.

Acoustic Comfort

Noise is proven to have a detrimental effect on human health. Wherever architectural and interior design sacrifices or ignores the behaviour of sound in an enclosed space, compensatory acoustic treatments come to have their say. Too long a reverberation hinders concentration and makes sound indistinct. Listening to the spoken word in an environment with a large echo (reverberation time) is exhausting.

Improve Acoustics in Modern Interiors

Unbalanced acoustics are not solely an issue of commercial or utility spaces. Acoustics, despite having a major impact on the psychological well-being, are often neglected in modern apartments, ironically to favour practical use. Long reverberation times impair the clarity and intelligibility not only of speech, but of course also of music. They also hinder the ability of hearing for spatial localisation. Modern living spaces usually suffer from a lack of acoustically absorbing materials. They are woefully lacking in minimalist interiors without carpets.

Reverberation time is the main acoustic parameter of an enclosed space. It is relatively easy to measure and should range from 0.2 to 0.5 seconds. An overly dampened room feels oppressive, whereas in a room without any damping there is a noticeable echo; for example the unpleasant reverberation of a clinking spoon. Put simply, the issue is that of accumulation of acoustic energy caused by reflections from solid surfaces of the ceiling, floor, windows and especially the walls. Reverberation time can be controlled using a variety of soft, acoustically absorbent materials. In addition to specifically developed acoustic materials in the form of panels and diffusers, these include, for example, thick curtains, carpets, upholstered furniture and so on.
