Fraster Felt - Acoustic products

In an office, proper room acoustics is a key factor to work performance and employee well-being. In a classroom, acoustically impaired settings lead to decreased attentionand reduced cognitive ability. In a restaurant or auditorium, acoustically uncomfortablespaces can spoil the best occasion.

It is difficult to imagine any well-designed interior space used for communication and social interaction that does not take acousticperformance into account.

Designed by Masoud Alavi and Kim Fridbjorg, Twister embraces artistic beauty while offering superiorsound absorption. This carefully handcrafted, patterned wool felt acoustic panel collection is pleasing to both the eye and the ear (NRC rating between .65 and .95).

Wool is a natural acoustic insulator that limits the spread of sound. In addition, wool absorbs manyharmful pollutants from the air and is resistant to bacteria, mold and mildew. Wool is difficult to ignite,has a low flame spread and has superior self-extinguishing qualities. All of these qualities facilitate theuse of wool felt in custom acoustical wall solutions.

Space Cover and Glass Cover Double add a unique dimensionalaesthetic for both glass walls andlarge open spaces. Glass Cover Double consists of 5 mm felt andSpace Cover consists of 2 layers of 3 mm felt, both with pattern cutoutsthat provide an elegant play of colorfrom the underlying felt. A customcolor effect can be achieved in both products by inserting 5mm accentcolors in the pattern cutouts. SpaceCover has an NRC of .40. GlassCover is rated with an NRC of .20.

Wool felt cleans easily because theoutside surface of the wool fiber consists of a series of overlappingscales (similar to the feathers on abird), which causes dirt to sit on the surface of the fiber, thereby making it easy to remove.

Covers mounted with magnets presents a design solution for areaswith large expanses of glass. This 100% wool felt product limits sound reflection on glass walls (NRC of .15)without significant obstruction to light.
