Perks Galore: Benefits of installing acoustic slat wood wall panels.

  1. Sound Absorption: Like a sponge for sound, these panels absorb unwanted noise, creating a peaceful environment where you can focus or relax.

Noise Be Gone! How acoustic slat wood wall panels work.

These panels work their magic through a clever combination of materials and design. Slats made of luxury wood veneered medium-density fiberboard are spaced apart, creating gaps that trap sound waves. Behind the slats, an acoustic fabric and insulation layer further absorb and diffuse sound. The result? A dramatic reduction in noise levels and an overall improvement in sound quality.

From Blueprint to Reality: Installing acoustic slat wood wall panels.

Prepping the walls.

Before getting down to business, you'll need to ensure your walls are smooth and clean. Remove any wallpaper or debris, and repair any cracks or holes.

Sizing up your panels.

Measure your walls carefully to determine the number of panels required. Panels can be cut to size, so you'll have a snug fit.

Putting up your panels.

Once your walls are prepped and your panels are sized, it's time to install! Choose from three different installation options to suit your needs:

Option 1: Gluing straight onto the wall.

For a quick and easy installation, use construction glue or grab adhesive to attach the panels directly to the wall. This method requires no screws or additional support structures.

Option 2: Screwing directly into the wall.

This method involves securing the Acoustic Slat Wood Wall Panels to the wall through the acoustic felt using screws. Choose black screws for black-backed panels or silver/grey screws for grey-backed panels. We recommend using a minimum of 9 screws per panel, spaced at regular intervals across the width and down the length of the panel.

If you're installing panels on the ceiling, ensure they are screwed into the ceiling joists. Always use the correct fixings for your wall type, such as plasterboard anchors for plasterboard walls.

Option 3: Screwing the panels into 45mm timber battens.

For optimum sound absorption, this method is your best bet. Begin by screwing 45mm timber battens to the wall. Next, secure the panels to the battens through the acoustic felt. To achieve Class A sound absorption, place an insulation material like Rockwool between the battens and behind the panels.

With these installation options in mind, you're ready to put up your Acoustic Slat Wood Wall Panels and transform your space.
