How Murano Timber Panels Combine Acoustic Science and Craftsmanship
Murano Timber Acoustic Panels bring together precision engineering and natural design. Each panel is carefully crafted to deliver excellent sound absorption, while maintaining the warmth and beauty of real timber. Designed for performance-driven environments, Murano panels offer both measurable acoustic results and architectural appeal.
The Science Behind Acoustic Timber Panels
Effective sound control begins with accurate acoustic modelling. Murano panels are engineered with specific perforation or groove patterns to achieve the right balance of reflection and absorption. By adjusting spacing, depth, and backing materials, designers can target optimal Noise Reduction Coefficient (NRC) values suited for spaces such as auditoriums, boardrooms, or lecture halls.
Precision Manufacturing for Consistent Results
Each Murano panel is produced using high-accuracy CNC machining, ensuring exact groove or perforation alignment across large surfaces. This level of precision not only guarantees acoustic consistency but also achieves flawless visual continuity for modern interiors.
Performance Through Design
Murano panels combine sound absorption with visual rhythm. Whether used on walls or ceilings, the linear or perforated designs contribute to a controlled sound field while maintaining architectural intent. When paired with acoustic insulation or air cavities, Murano panels can achieve NRC values between 0.70 and 0.95.
Material Options and Finishes
Available in a wide range of timber veneers, laminates, and paint finishes, Murano panels allow designers to align acoustic performance with aesthetic goals. Each panel is sealed with low-VOC coatings to ensure long-term durability and environmental compliance.

FAQs
What makes Murano panels acoustically effective?
The groove and perforation patterns are engineered to balance absorption and reflection, ensuring optimal sound control while maintaining a natural timber look.
Can Murano panels be customised for different NRC ratings?
Yes. By altering perforation size, spacing, and backing materials, panels can be tuned to meet specific acoustic targets and room functions.
Are Murano panels suitable for curved walls or ceilings?
Yes. Panels can be curved or segmented to fit complex architectural designs while maintaining consistent acoustic properties.
Do Murano panels comply with Australian building standards?
All Murano panels are tested for acoustic and fire performance to meet Australian and international interior standards.
Can Murano panels be matched to other finishes in a project?
Yes. Custom veneers and laminates are available to coordinate with flooring, furniture, or wall joinery for a seamless interior aesthetic.
