Advanced micro-perforated Silk Metal™ panels create elegant spaces with serious acoustic performance.
Acoustical Surfaces' Silk Metal™ is a line of micro-perforated aluminum ceiling and wall panels designed to deliver both elegant aesthetics and acoustical performance. Featuring a smooth, fabric-like finish and a high NRC rating of 0.80 with no acoustical liner required, these panels are engineered to reduce echo, control sound reflections, and manage electromagnetic and heat interference.
Unlike traditional perforated metal panels, Silk Metal™ uses a patented angled micro-perforation process, optimizing sound absorption and allowing for enhanced AEMIC (Acoustical & Electromagnetic Interference Control) capabilities.
