Frequently Asked Questions
Acoustic panels are sound-absorbing panels designed to reduce echo and reverberation by absorbing sound reflections. They’re a go-to solution when ambient noise builds up and a room starts to feel loud.
When a room has lots of hard surfaces, like drywall, glass, concrete, tile, or wood, sound reflects and builds up as echo and reverberation. Acoustic panels cover or interrupt those reflective surfaces so less sound bounces back into the room. Most panels use porous materials that absorb sound energy, helping reduce the echo you hear in the space.
Start with what you’re trying to solve and where the sound is coming from: overall echo in an open area, noisy work zones, or separation between active spaces. Then choose a format that fits the room and layout—wall-mounted acoustic panels, acoustic ceiling panels (tiles, baffles, canopies), or freestanding acoustic panels. If you also need separation and flexibility, acoustic room dividers and acoustic partitions can control sound while creating defined zones.
The amount depends on room size, ceiling height, and how “hard” the surfaces are (glass, concrete, drywall, tile, etc.). A good starting point is treating the areas where sound reflects most (usually larger wall/ceiling surfaces), then adding coverage as needed based on the results.
In most rooms, the best results come from treating the largest hard surfaces—usually walls and ceiling—and spreading coverage across the space rather than clustering panels in one spot. For larger rooms, evenly distributing acoustic panels along key walls and adding ceiling panels can make a noticeable difference.
