SLOTTED PANELS

Murano Slotted Acoustic Panels

Murano Slotted Acoustic Panels combine timeless timber beauty with precise acoustic performance. Designed for architects and interior designers, these panels create an elegant linear rhythm while effectively controlling sound reflections in commercial, cultural, and educational environments.

Architectural Timber Design with Acoustic Function

Murano Slotted Panels are crafted with a series of uniform slots that absorb sound and scatter reflections. Each slot configuration can be customised to achieve specific acoustic results, making them ideal for lecture halls, theatres, offices, and reception areas. When combined with an acoustic backing or air cavity, Murano Slotted Panels can achieve NRC ratings between 0.65 and 0.90.

Materials and Finishes

Manufactured from premium MDF or plywood cores, Murano panels are available in real timber veneers, laminates, or painted finishes. Designers can select from a range of surface coatings and perforation patterns to suit the interior aesthetic. Panels are supplied with precise edge detailing for seamless alignment during installation.

Applications

Performance and Acoustic Properties
