Description

Acoustics and design can work very well together. Akotherm Facet is a high-quality polyester wool panel that combines sound absorption with a decorative surface. It helps reduce echo (reverberation) and improves how sound spreads in a room. The panel has faceted edges, creating a clean and modern pattern of lines on walls and ceilings. It is alsplightweight, easy to handle and keeps its shape well.

The panel is resistant to moisture, oils and common cleaning products. It is also hypoallergenic and dust-free, making it safe for indoor use. The standard size is 600 × 600 × 40 mm, but other sizes and thicknesses are available on request.

Properties

Akotherm Facet has a density of about 40 kg/m³ and is fire certified according to EN 13501-1 class B and DIN 4102 B1. It offers good sound absorption (αw = 0.75), which means it helps reduce noise and makes rooms sound calmer and clearer. The panels can be easily cut to size and mounted directly on walls or ceilings. The material also provides some thermal insulation and contains no chemical binders.

Applications

Akotherm Facet is suitable for walls and ceilings in offices, classrooms, studios, auditoria and other spaces where both good acoustics and design are important. The visible panel design with edge detailing creates a clean and modern look, making it suitable as both a functional and decorative solution. It can also be used in acoustic partitions or interior elements to improve sound comfort in a space.

Answers to common questions

Answers to the most common technical and practical questions.
Can the acoustic performance be predicted for a specific space?

Merford can perform acoustic analyses or simulations to predict noise levels and reverberation times based on material selection, room dimensions, and finishes, ensuring the right solution is designed.

How maintenance-friendly are these materials?

Our acoustic materials generally require minimal maintenance. Dusting and cleaning is usually sufficient to maintain long‑term performance.

What is the difference between vibration isolation, sound insulation, and sound absorption?
  • Vibration isolation reduces mechanical vibrations from machines or equipment, preventing transmission to the building structure or floor.
  • Sound insulation prevents sound from passing from one space to another, e.g., between rooms or to the exterior.
  • Sound absorption reduces echo and reverberation within a space by damping sound waves, improving comfort and speech intelligibility.

Merford materials can provide one or more of these effects depending on the product type, such as absorption panels for rooms or isolation around ventilation units.
