Acoustic panel stories

Feltkütur Acoustic Felt in a Wood-Dominated Environment

In spaces where wood reigns supreme, whether for its natural qualities, visual warmth, or timelessness, maintaining acoustic balance is crucial. While wood is a noble and aesthetic material, it tends to reflect sound, which can lead to excessive reverberation and negatively impact the acoustic comfort of the space. 

This is where Feltkütur acoustic felt comes into play. Not only does it serve as a high-performance solution to absorb ambient noise and reduce echoes, but it also blends seamlessly with the aesthetic of wood.
