Standard Akupanel or Akupanel with FR Components?

The Standard Akupanel is a versatile choice for a wide range of interior projects where standard material specifications are suitable. It combines acoustic performance with the natural look of real wood and is available in a broad selection of finishes, making it suitable for offices, hospitality, retail, residential and other interior applications.

The Fire-Rated Akupanel is designed for commercial projects where fire-rated materials are required as part of the project specifications. It uses individually B1-certified components, including the MDF backing and acoustic felt while maintaining the familiar Akupanel appearance. This makes it a suitable option for architects, designers, contractors and other professionals working on projects where fire safety requirements need to be considered alongside acoustics and interior design.
