San Francisco rPET Acoustic Panels for Suspended Ceilings
It visually conceals existing technical ceilings while significantly improving acoustic comfort.
Developed for quick and simple installation through a clipping system, San Francisco transforms standard ceiling grids into structured architectural surfaces without requiring heavy intervention on the building.
Design & Patterns: a Structured, Modular Ceiling
Each panel measures 60 × 120 cm, covering two standard ceiling tiles.
Designed as a decorative panel system, San Francisco offers:
- several available patterns (flat, wavy, or openwork), allowing varied visual and lighting effects
- a through‑coloured rPET finish ensuring long‑lasting colour uniformity
- optional wood‑print finishes as an alternative to solid colours
This variety of patterns makes it easy to adapt the ceiling to the architectural identity of each project, whether the goal is a discreet finish or a strong visual statement.
Acoustic Performance: Effective Ceiling Sound Absorption
Made from rPET acoustic fiber, San Francisco panels provide high acoustic absorption, with a sound absorption coefficient of up to 0.95 αw.
Installed on the ceiling, they:
- Effectively reduce reverberation in open-plan spaces
- Improve acoustic comfort without the need for wall-mounted treatments
- Enhance the acoustic performance of existing ceilings, including refurbishment projects
- Maintain easy access to building services and technical installations
San Francisco is therefore an ideal solution for projects requiring high acoustic performance, fast installation, and architectural integration.
Recommended Applications
