4. ACOUSTIC PANELS
 Acoustic panels are a range of semi-rigid to rigid, non-
combustible mineral wool slabs manufactured from glass fibre
bonded with a high performance bio-based, formaldehydefree
binder.
 Acoustic panels are free from CFCs, HCFCs and any other
material with ozone depletion potential in their manufacture
and content and represent no known threat to the
environment. The manufacturing process has a low impact on
the environment and is classified as Zero ODP and Zero
GWP. (Manufacturing)
 Fire Rating: Class A
(non-combustible) 4

5. INSTALLATION
5
A typical dropped ceiling consists of a grid-work of metal
channels in the shape of an upside-down "T", suspended on
wires from the overhead structure.
These channels snap together in a regularly spaced pattern –
typically a 2×2 or 4×4 foot
Each cell is filled with lightweight “Acoustic Panels" which simply
drop or slides into the grid.
Tiles can be selected with a variety of colures and designs.
Light fixtures, HVAC air grilles, and other fixtures are available
which can fit the same space as a panel for easy installation.
Acoustic panel is easily cut to allow fixtures in other shapes,
such as incandescent lights, speakers, and fire sprinkler heads.

9. BENEFITS OF ACOUSTIC CEILINGS
 Acoustic tile is very sound absorbent, taking the
harshness out of a hard ceiling. In addition to reducing
echo and improving sound quality in a room, an acoustic
ceiling can also reduce noise that permeates from one
story of a house to another.
 It is handy for hiding pipes, wires, and other unsightly
necessities while allowing easy access for repairs or
remodeling. This makes acoustic ceilings a popular
choice for basement remodels.
 Highly light reflective, acoustic tiles let more available
light reflect back into the room, and save money in utility
costs. The panels come in different levels of humidity
resistance, reflectivity, and fire resistance. 9
